This week we went back for Sofia's hearing test. She didn't pass again. So we went to a ENT and she found fluid in her ears. I am happy she does not have hearing loss. Now we have scheduled getting tubes in her ears. She is having the procedure done on March 13th. I am a little emotional about it but also know the risks are low. Plus I also know it will help her in the long run as far as her language development goes. It is just hard because she is still so little. Please keep her in your prayers and thoughts!

I've heard good things about the procedure's benefits, and yes, it is pretty routine. I'm so glad to hear about the fluid contributing to the hearing issue--it's a relief to have a good reason with a solution for it. I'll be thinking of sweet little Sofia, hoping for an uneventful procedure and a swift recovery!
Glad it was just this! Good Luck baby girl! Hope you start talking your sisters ear off soon!
We definetly will keep Sofia in our thoughts and prayers ~ when sunny was a baby he ended up with 4 different sets of tubes before he finally out grew the problem. Now at 17 he no longer has any problems with his ears. The benefits are wonderful and no more constant ear infections were great for him although in the beginning he did have to stay on antibiotic for about 6 months because even with the tubes he still had infections until he started getting bigger.
I always think of you Amy and keep you and your family in our prayers. I have somewhat of an idea of what you are going thru with Sofia as my sister has a child (now 30) with DS. These children are so special and bring such joy into your life that not ever thought possible. You and your family will be blessed beyond measure with the compassion to raise such a beautiful daughter. Both your daughters are absolutely beautiful!
Again, try not to worry to much come March 13 (although that may be impossible) and know that many of your friends and family are keeping you in their prayers for Sofia's surgery to go well and her recovery to be quick and for mommy and daddy to have peace of mind.
