Trey and Bella had their High Risk NICU Follow-up today!
Trey weighs 11 pounds 15 ounces (20% for his adjusted age), is 24 1/4 inches long (60%) and his head circumference is 41 centimeters (50%)!
Bella weighs 10 pounds 12 ounces (20% for her adjusted age), is 23 1/4 inches long (50%) and her head circumference is 40 1/2 centimeters (70%)!
Both are doing well developmentally! They both hold their hands well and follow objects well! Bella does a great time on belly time, but Trey still hates it and cried! We are going to let Trey have belly time on top of Mommy and Daddy to help him learn to like it!
Their leg muscle strength is normal for a premature baby of there gestation, but behind a normal baby of their age. This will correct itself! Mommy learned that exersaucers, walkers and jumpers of any kind are bad for a baby's muscle development, so we will be limiting our use of these!
Our next follow up is in June. We will be looking for strong belly time positions, good muscle strength, and baby thought processes!
