We are hoping her stabismus will continue to get better and she will not need the surgery. It does get worse when she is tired. So Faith had terrible constipation too? I wonder if that is a FAS thing, as Carolyn struggles with it as well and her tone is a little low but not terrible. I laugh and agree that when the children first come it is often so very hard. It gets better so slowly that I often do not see it unless I look back and remember. Then I am like. Wow. God sure has done a miracle! Praying for you and your family always.

And wow! What a grow...Oh Susan, she is just a doll! And wow! What a growth spurt!! (Which reminds me- Elizabeth has really grown a lot too!!!) <br />Several of my boys had strabismus, and their eyes either completely corrected or are 90% in line now! Amazing!!<br />We've had 2 kids outgrow nystagmus and one did not. After my stroke I developed mild nystagmus, usually only a problem when I'm tired.<br />Our Faith had the worst constipation of any baby we've had and she did not have low tone. We'd actually had to remove it often or do lower half body exercises to encourage it to come out! Now she can drink more fluids and she takes stool softeners. Our constipated babies were always hard. Most often due to formula issues. But not Faith! I don't miss those days! :o)<br />All of our boys from orphanages came home with acid reflux and diahrea. It took at least 12 months for them to stabilize! I don't miss those days either- LOL! :o)<br />Some would think what we deal with now is hard- little do they know it often starts out harder! Of course with God all things are possible!<br />((((((((((HUGS)))))))))) and prayers elizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16376096667336921796noreply@blogger.com
