Cleft palate clinic 7-1-13

We can't believe that little miss Braylee is almost a year old!!!  Only 22 more days to go! She had an appointment for her helmet and everything is going great with it, he thinks she should be able to get it off by next month!!! 
She also had an appointment with the cleft palate clinic.  Here she saw her plastic surgeon, E.N.T, speech therapist, and orthodontist. Her plastic surgeon said everything looks great with her cleft and has healed up nicely.  Braylee can now click her tongue, it's amazing what she can do now!
The speech therapist said that it would benefit Braylee to get her into an early intervention speech program, just to give her a little boost.  So we are going to find a place here locally that can work with her.  The speech therapist was really impressed with how far B has come and how alert and attentive she is to everything!  She ran through her check list and B is right on track and she has no worries at this time, she was very happy with her progress. :) 
The dentist said that kids with Apert Syndrome have a more narrow mouth. It is possible that in 5-8 years they will need to do something to make room for her teeth.  It is too early to tell, we will just have to play it by ear.   
She is almost 20 lbs and is 29 inches tall!  Growing like a weed way to fast. ;)
