His pediatrician
ordered blood work and an MRI because his head size ( which has been
growing at
a steady pace. He is in the 100th % for height and weight, so I'm not
quite sure why they think he should have a small head) and because of
drooling. He doesnt drool all the time, but when he does its excessive.
We had also gone to the ENT to discuss the drooling and she said that he
had a sinus infection that has been going on for quite a while, and put
us on antibiotics and nasal spray for 20 days. We go back on Friday to
get an xray of his adenoids and tonsils, but the drooling has STOPPED!
Our last test is an MRI at the end of the month, and speak to genetics
about his results.
I am at the point that I dont believe in it. Yes, maybe
this is the cause of him needing an extra push, but to be called a
syndrome...Not sure! I have yet to see any substantial evidence. Seriously, I think he must of gotten the cute chromosome duplicated!A blog about an EXTRAORDINARY 3 year old......his CRAZY little sister.. their AWESOME mom... and why I decided it isn't a microduplication, but a 'GENE AMPLIFICATION'!!!

I had no problems while pregnant, and besides
33.5 hours of labor, he was here...perfect. He always was on the large
range with everything. Although he was born at 7.7, he has always been
in the 95th-100% in height, weight and head circumference. Killian has
always been a little delayed in his milestones, but always got it before
we would start to worry. He wasn't the last kid to do some, but
certainly wasn't the first. (I was on baby center so I am comparing to
all the August 2009 kids from that board). He had a lot of ear
infections, slight eczema,
weather changes cause breathing issues (which I had too throughout my
childhood). We got tubes in December 2011. He had maybe 2 ear infections
after that. So we called and got him into early intervention, and he
has been in that for about 2 years. His therapist comes once a week to
do his speech therapy, and he is doing great. (The only problem is that
he doesn't have a ton of longer sentences) He is really smart though. He
knows all his colors/shapes/alphabet/numbers. He can say most of the
alphabet, some colors and some words correctly in two other languages
(Spanish and Chinese. We are neither Spanish nor Chinese) He can draw like
you wouldn't believe. I will have to show you a video but I have been
told that he can draw better that some 6 year olds. He can write almost
all of his letters, he can draw all kinds of shapes, robots,rainbows,
etc.
