Even though she is catching up, there are still things that she does or does not do that make me worry there are some lingering issues from being so small and growth restricted. And having been the donor, you wonder what the long term affects of not receiving all she needed while in the womb. I didn't know about the vestibular issues, but all that sounds very familiar... may have to look into it more!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11482637793828446755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837703357651074624.post-52391494744870111632013-01-31T18:31:46.104-08:002013-01-31T18:31:46.104-08:00This has a lot of similarities to my son, a former...This has a lot of similarities to my son, a former 24 weeker... Therapeutic Listening, specifically Vital Sounds cd's, have made huge differences for him and his twin sister!

Virginia had severe sensory stuff going on in the NICU that its always in the back of my mind now. Like Cohen she has been very cautious around major developmental milestones. It seems partially sensory and partially motor planning. Please keep us updated with his OT strategies.

He likes to be in his crib, carseat, stroller and swing, I think he would sit in those for hours if we let him. Even at home though it seems like he just can't focus on anything and is constantly moving from one thing to the next (I know, part of the age, but also feels "different" again). We are starting to work on a few things with our OT so I will keep you posted!

We struggle with the same wor...Thanks for sharing! We struggle with the same worries about what is "busy" and what is "sensory." Jack is always putting himself into containers and will stay in his crib for hours without complaint (when he is supposed to be napping). He can't sit still, but will if in a small chair (containment, again) or if squished by my legs. He does better at home, because he's comfortable...but in a big open room/new space...he's on the go, running in circles...and then might put his head to the floor and "wheelbarrow" himself around?!? Some of it I know is "typical," but other things...I'm not so sure. Keep us updated on the tips and such that help with the vestibular stim. Thanks!!
