Tripp and Tubes

Tripp had tubes put in his ears after 5 ear infections on May 31, 2011. I was a little scarred about the whole putting him under. But he did GREAT!!! He did not come out screaming or nothing, he was an angel! We arrived at the hospital at 7:30am and we were back home and 9:00am.

Tripp is 21 months and he still does not speak, he does not even say mama or Dada so that is hard. Sometimes you get a ball or boo out of him. For the most part he just does not say anything. So I have put him in the up to 3 program. They came out on Monday and did the evaluation. Tripp was right on or ahead on everything but speech and he was at 10 months with it. :( I hope he catches up on speaking soon. Because he gets frustrated with us because we don't know what he want and then he throws a huge and I mean HUGE fits.

They think most of it is because of all the negative pressure in his ears before his tube that he could not hear well. But we will be getting a hearing test done on June 30th :) Hopefully that comes out good if not we will go down a different path to help Tripp!
