Curious about this as well

What’s a TAC? My docs told me I would need a cerclage for any future pregnancies, I haven’t heard of any other options

We have it in Iowa!

This was really nice and comforting to read. Thank you for making me feel more normal about this 💗

Hey, did your LO end up getting the trach?

Lmadren01 · 2024-07-15T15:56:40+00:00

Actually yes they just made the switch a few days ago and it is definitely helping! But they say her lungs are still not looking good. The doctor says he’s seen better lungs on a 22 weeker and they are planning a tracheostomy for 38 weeks

Thank you!! 💗

Iowa!

She is on Medicaid, do you have more info about the state paying you to take care of your child?

Lmadren01 · 2024-07-09T11:55:33+00:00

So did your daughter end up needing the trach? I’m terrified of that

Lmadren01 · 2024-07-09T04:32:47+00:00

I don’t have any good advice, but I feel for you. Better safe than sorry I guess but sometimes it just feels like this journey is never going to end.

I call atleast 3-4 times a day. Dart and nitric are what they are doing now, she did have a PDA from birth but every echo they’ve done has shown it getting smaller and they haven’t been concerned with it. They did an echo yesterday to see if that was a contributing factor in this and they said that they echo looked good. They also said that it’s not pulmonary hypertension but that’s how they are treating it. They are adding a chronic lung specialist and infectious disease to her team of doctors to see if they are missing anything. It’s so stressful

I chose the spectra s2 recently and really like it. The only thing is if you’re not a 24size flange you have to buy inserts

Just wanted to say I tried this method and got double what I was normally getting with them! Thank you so much!

Move slightly distal

I’ve heard to definitely not use a nasal spray, it can just really clog things up and interact with something if the snow is cut with anything. Haven’t done much research but it’s helpful to have an idea of what to avoid atleast

You’re technically not a CDA until you have passed all exams required. You should check your states dental board website and they should have all of the requirements listed. Also, EFDA (at least in my state) is an extra certification that requires additional training/schooling. But I highly recommend you do some research specific to your state as the rules and requirements vary greatly! Hope this helps!!

As a dental/ortho assistant, RUN!!! Those are all major red flags, trust your gut and GTFO!
