What a day!!
Today, OT came out to evaluate the boys.
Ronin's fine and gross motor is at 5 months, which is great considering they were 6 weeks early. But his oral motor skills are weak. His tongue tired out too easily. So, he qualifies for services.
Ryker's gross motor is at 5 months, and his oral motor is good. However, his fine motor is at 3 months (he's 6 months). So he qualifies for services too. So both Ronin and Ryker will be getting OT.
The BF'ing mom's meeting went well. Ronin gained 3 oz. Mellanie (the LC) was happy with that, since at 6 months, weight gain slows down and that is smack in the middle of what he should be gaining. She also showed me how to support his tongue and cheeks while nursing, and that should help him nurse longer. Ryker gained 6 oz! Holy crap! He is now 16 lbs 6 oz.
OK, I should go to bed now.
