Today we had our first visit from Early On. Adaline did her best to sleep through it. She is not a morning person (a girl after my own heart).
They said she has pretty good muscle tone and gross motor skills.
The were concerned with the following:
She will not retain a object put in her hand
She does not follow objects visually
The are concerned with the social emotional in that she does not visually follow people and they do not feel that she expresses displeasure well enough.
They are also concerned that she will not suck her thumb.
The good news is that she will qualify for in home therapy every 1-2 weeks. I am excited to get started and get her on her way to becoming all that she can be.
We set up a "goal" for her to be at her age level for skills by age 1.
So, here are my questions for other parents with children with down syndrome. I would LOVE feedback in the comment and please forward this post to anyone else who would be willing to respond.
- What were your experiences with Early On?
- How often did your children have therapy at this age?
- Did you think it was enough?
- Noahsdad.com has Noah in therapy 4 times a week. Do you think that is necessary?
- How do you keep all of the paper work organized??? Binder, file etc? Does anyone know of a good computer program where I could scan her information and keep it electronically?
