I am not sure if this is the right place for it...
Our daughter was born very sick due to the hospital being complete morons...and long story short she had to be put on very strong medication that can cause hearing loss. Until she is 6 years old, we have to bring her to the hospital every 6 months to get her hearing checked. We used to have to bring her for development tests as well but they eventually dismissed her from that program, saying that her development was actually ABOVE normal..
Anyway, my concern is the possibility of her losing her hearing. Can anyone tell me any symptoms or signs that I may look out for to make sure she is doing okay? She says a few words, not much...is this normal for 14 months? She babbles more than anything...
I am just worried, our poor girl has been through so much already she has had spinal taps, MRI's, central lines, etc...she doesn't need to go through any more
