Hi, my little champ started to drap himself along the floor on Christmas eve. We found the thing he loves most in the world, our TV remote, and spent quite a while just slowly moving it away from it and to our suprise it worked. The best Christmas present ever as he is 11 1/2 months and at his last Nureologist appointment we were told he wouldn't crawl for quite awhile yet probably around 14months or so. This is now one step closer. When he pulls himself along we have noticed he doesn't use his left leg at all its just stiff bent up. I had a physio appointment the other day and my physio commented on it as well as he was pulling himself around her office while I was having treatment. I said I was just thrilled he was doing it and hoped he would learn to use both legs in time but reality is I wonder. The new mobility has also mean't at the moment when he has an "absence event" he rolls to the side which in a way I find less stressful as its less of a distance than when he was sitting up and going to the side.
Still having nights of him waking between 3 and 4am super hyperactive. Vocalising, shaking his head and often when we try and hold him he doesn't like being "contained" He is happy to lie on our arms so long as he can move around. He is so loud and doesn't go back to sleep until his usual 9am nap. I mentioned this in the weekly report email I send his Nureo and Paed and as I have not received a reply from his Nureo I feel a little more relaxed about it as his Nureo usually only responds to bubs weekly reports if he feels there is something we need to be concerned about now.
He is booked in for an EEG on on 5th and then see's his Nureo an hour later. At his Paed appointment before Christmas when I told her of his Hyperactive state overnight and she observed him trying to pick things up she said to her its seems all to do with his central nervous core? She said things don't add up with bub as at times its like he can't control his arms to grab things then others is fine.
Both the Paed and GP ask everytime they see us if he has had an MRI yet and I will admit now my husband and I are starting to wonder ourselves if its time. We know his Nureologist said if there is something we have time to wait and see what happens but.......
Sorry for the long post. His seziures etc are pretty much the same other than his Shudder Syndrome now has days where we don't even notice it.
Counting the sleeps until his next EEG.
