Welcome to my page! Hey I have not improved much! I don't think my mum knows where to start telling you about me! I am now nearly 11 months old, I hear my mum saying she feels like she is 50. I have spent every moment of my life so far demanding my mum. I still do not sleep through the night, I have improved a little and only wake up about twice now, but I will only go back to sleep if my mum stays with me. My mum tried controlled crying months ago but gave up after I screamed for at least 3 hours a night and still wouldn't give in after 2 weeks. I hear on the grapevine though that she is going to do it again after new year. Since I was born I have always had a bit of a bent neck. It did not improve as I got older, and was quite noticeable, and when I was about 6 months old my mum noticed that I had a great aversion to sitting up so off I was packed to see a physio. The problem with my neck is called Congenital Muscular Torticollis which basically means twisted neck. I have had to do exercises everyday to try and help stretch the weak side, but I fight against it so my mum has had to be sneaky by placing my toys in certain positions and carrying me a different way. When my neck got really bad I even had a collar that my mum made for a couple of weeks. It is much better now as you can see in the photo. I have to carry on going to see the physio though as I would not sit up. I just didn't like it and would cry and curl my toes up and grip the floor like I was scared. I would much rather be flat on the floor. I have a lovely Physio lady called Diane but I usually scream at her for most of the session because she makes me do things I don't want to do. Over Christmas though I have become much better at sitting up and now I can also move across the floor at great speed like a commando. |

I am not crawling yet, and still don't like putting my hands down much, I suppose this will be the next thing to work on when I go back to physio. The occupational therapist thinks I may also have a mild form of sensory defensiveness as I pull my hands away a lot and also I am quite difficult to feed. I don't like lumps at all in my food and if my mum sneaks one in I will gag and throw up all over her. I am not interested at all in biscuits or snacks or anything that needs chewing. You would think I would want to as I seem to gnaw everything else in sight and I have also got loads of teeth! I had 4 teeth by the time I was 6 months and now I am up to 8. Its the one thing I am doing faster than anyone else! Like Joe I also did not tolerate cows milk well so my mum put me on Soya. Although I liked it, it played havoc with my guts and now I am on goat milk formula. I told you at the beginning didn't I, that I wasn't making it easy for my mum. I like to say bab bab a lot and I also growl at people like a dog. I also like it when Joe runs round my play ring and I try to spin fast and see him. I like my big brother a lot but he won't let me kiss him goodnight before I go to bed. Where as I used to hate a dummy when I was first born now I want one all the time. |
