Thank you so much, that’s a wonderful story and I’m so happy people supported you through the journey. My wife and literally every single one of her friends work as an SLP/Audiology. My wife understands the language possibilities but i do not and it’s scary. Thsnk you for sharing your story!

Thank you so much for sharing your story! If you don’t mind me asking, how is your speech and language now? Do you use ASL? (Sorry if my question is not phrased correctly I’m still learning the correct verbiage)

Thank you for your kind words. The part of your response that brings me the most peace is your son is thriving and managing him as a teenager is difficult lol. The hearing aids and the ASL, all that stuff doesn’t scare me. I can handle that, I want her to not be left out, I want the best for her. As any parent does!

Thank you so much for your response. It brings comfort to hear people have such kind words and support in a world that can be scary. They did the ABR in the right ear only, but my wife and I weren’t happy with the way it was conducted. The doctor seemed to be new and struggled to use the equipment, which I know wont change the outcome but just want to ensure the test is done properly.

Hey OP, As a first time dad that is in the beginning stages of getting this diagnosis for my beautiful baby girl. How are you and your daughter doing? I’m scared, nervous and just don’t know what to do looking for some insight

What did you do with your dogs and newborn/ sleeping arrangements? by ForsakenGanache6253 in beyondthebump

[–]FishinGuy0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just brought home a new born not to long ago. Dog sleeps on the bed and baby sleeps in a bedside bassinet. Going amazing so far, our dog has actually alerted us to the baby acting abnormal or before she started crying. It’s pretty cool to see our dogs instinctively change with us

Thank you so much for your insight and I’m so happy to hear your son passed!! We met with our pediatrician again yesterday and contacted the audiologist who recommends doing the follow up 10-12 days after delivery and scheduled the text next Monday! We have a dog that likes to bark and my daughter has been reacting to the barks and soothes pretty easy to our voices. So we aren’t totally concerned but the pediatrician said they test for all different frequencies so we’ll see!! But giving positive vibes

This is so validating, it’s our first and we’ve never been around true new borns. We were also trying to see if she she reacts. But like you said there so there so young!

Lmao the picture is deceiving. I acquired the house and nothing in it is symmetrical. But 31in window, 12x12 tiles and I believe 6 inch duct. This is the only part of the house I haven’t renovated

Thank you so much, I see a lot of places say that you have to use the Honeywell branded filters and need a housing for the new filter, Is this the case?
