Therapists

Because Kayla was less than 1800 grams when born, which is equivalent to 4lbs she qualified for the NICU project. It's a free agency that allows therapists to work with us until Kayla is three in case we find issues in her development. Because a good majority of preemies do need some sort of therapy later in life, we wanted to accept this service and meet the team. There were three ladies that came to our house today to meet Kayla, a physical therapist, an occupational therapist, as well as the NICU project organizer. They did assessments of Kayla to her adjusted age so because Kayla's actual due date was August 30th, they looked for the milestones for a two month old. Well Kayla did great, she is at or above all the milestones for a two months old baby. Which is so exciting, I personally think Kayla will be caught up to her adjusted age by the time she is one, mom opinion. They say most all preemies are caught up to the appropriate age by the time they are three. Kayla also decided to show off a bit for the therapists, she was doing some tummy time when she thought it would be a great idea to roll over to her back. The ladies were very surprised and thrilled to see this accomplishment. GO KAYLA!! So we will continue to meet which a therapist every three months until we chose not to meet with them anymore, or Kayla is three.
