Few Camden update =)

First of all, the good news with physical therapy. Camden's PT said that although he is behind physically she feels like she is going to cut back her visit once a month! He is progressing so fast. If after a few months he doesnt seem to be making progress she will start coming more but he seems to be taking off. His walk is a bit Frankensteinish, but that is from laying so long. His muscles in his legs have to stretch in areas, shorten in others, but the PT said that is totally normal (although I do love his walk =p) He is hardly crawling at all anymore, I am still beyond excited over his walking. Praise God my baby is walking...

I am still trying to figure out the cause of the retching. He has been off the soy formula for about a week now and the retching has left....until this morning. ugh! I decided to take out soy to see if he had developed an allergy to it since he has those tendencies, being allergic to milk. So after a week of doing great, this morning he retched. I am still thinking soy is a problem, although being allergic to soy and milk is going to stink. I am going to have more blood work done to rule it out. I think the retching this morning was just normal Camden retching. I dont know! If the results come back ok, we'll pretty much know it is "just him" =(

He is signing a lot and still not saying anymore words. We now have speech therapy coming to the house once a week, and still continue to have the OT every Tues. She has been working with him on food, so he has despised her the last few visits. He did great today, licking chips until a piece broke off in his mouth and he starting gagging. He recovered well, then eventually threw the chip very rudely right after she left. Today he decided to lick my gum and loved it. ( I know, gross, but when your kid doesnt eat you dont care) So I need spearmint flavors, salty, chip textured foods that don't crumble. Anyone know where I can get these, let me know.... =)

This past weekend we raised a little awareness for CDH. We were trying to win the APX contest that was offering 100,000 for first place with the foundations that received the most votes off of facebook. We went out in front of a mall and gave people ribbons, and made them promise to go home and vote for us. =) Not sure who really did it, but at least they got to learn what CDH was. I am pleased to say CHERUBS won 2nd place, the 30,000 reward!
