More and more, I feel confirmation that staying home this next year is the best thing for Siahna. Yesterday, we had a speech therapist come to the house and she recommended that we start speech therapy for Siahna - which will mean two therapy sessions a week. If I was working, this would take up most of our evenings through the week.
Since her motor skills have been delayed, her speech has been delayed as well since she's focusing on her other skills. The therapist feels that Siahna is at a 6 month level with her language/verbal skills. This didn't come as a surprise as she's a pretty quiet baby. She gave us some ideas on things to work on at home and now we just pray that we get approved for a second therapy (sometimes they don't allow two different therapies).
Siahna's MRI and labwork is on Monday. We ask for your prayers on guidance for the doctors because we really don't want to do any further testing on her.
I'll keep you guys in my prayers!
