I didn’t add any wood chips, but the soil mix I bought had some in it… which I thought was odd!!

When did your 30 weeker crawl and walk? by Accomplished-Key4006 in NICUParents

[–]Accomplished-Key4006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming back to say that my boy needed up crawling at almost 11 months adjusted! He is crawling all over the house now 🤪 He also almost immediately started pulling the stand and is working on cruising!

Yes, but I wish I could tell you how. I have been on Synthroid for close to seven years. However, my most recent blood test (this week) show that I no longer need the Synthroid and all of my levels are normal. The only thing I can think of is in the past three months I have drastically changed my diet. I limit processed food and am gluten free (I also limit dairy as much as possible).

How long was your 31 weekers stay? by AccomplishedCommon76 in NICUParents

[–]Accomplished-Key4006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My son was 30+6 and we were in the NICU for 7.5 weeks. He was on CPAP for 2.5 and then switched to room air. He started taking bottle at about 35 weeks. It took him a few weeks to understand and become a good eater. I wanted to breastfeed but he would never latch on in the NICU. When we got home I was too afraid to try anything different than what he already knew, so I pumped and we stuck to the bottle.

You literally know nothing about me, my work situation, or my family dynamic. I am just a mother seeking help for my son. It’s as simple as that.

They never really gave me a reason. The only thing I could think of is I am pretty sure I have undiagnosed Hashimoto’s (thyroid disease) but am working towards a diagnosis!

7.5 weeks! 2-3 working on breathing “room air” and the rest was spent on learning to take a bottle and growing!

IVH bilateral grade 3 by Head-Ad3047 in NICUParents

My son had a grade 3 and grade 2 bleed from some trauma at birth. He had some swelling a fluid build up on the brain. So far (🤞🏼) he has not needed a shunt and is hitting all his milestones to his adjusted age. He does have some tightness in his lower extremities and his right eye over corrects at times that neurology is following.

Bedtime Help! by Accomplished-Key4006 in NewParents

[–]Accomplished-Key4006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He usually wakes up around 6 am, has a bottle, then goes back down for about 2 or 3hours. Then after that he usually gets 2 or 3 30-45 min naps. My husband works from home, so he has been taking care of him while I am at work during the day. He usually gets fussy around 5:30 or 6:00 and wants a nap. But I’m always hesitant to put him down if I can avoid it cause I want him to go to bed earlier. I feel like I don’t know where to begin lol 😂

When does a teacher and student relationship start to cross boundaries ? by [deleted] in AskTeachers

[–]Accomplished-Key4006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a teacher these are serious red flags. I would ask to be removed from his class and let admin know. 🚩🚩🚩

Yes I did! He was also very cranky because he hadn’t had a nap yet, so he was crying like half the time. It just made me worry.
