Miss. Peg taught us few more exercises today. She also informed us that based on her evaluation from the last visit, it seems Sripathi behaves like a 2 month old baby. So our goals are now to ensure that he learns to control his head and trunk. We need to make sure Sripathi gets these exercises done at several intervals in a day. As his head is large and heavy most of these physical therapies are going to be difficult and painful for him. But we have start somewhere to help him stay independent someday. Me and Sripathi need an awful lot of strength and determination to perform these exercises.
Tomorrow is yet another therapy day. The visual therapist will be visiting Sripathi and evaluating him. BTW last night Sripathi had a tough time getting back to sleep after he woke up at around 2:00 a.m. He got some nap probably 30-40 mins twice this afternoon. I know that's not enough at all. Babies his age are supposed to nap 2 to 4 hours in the day and sleep for 12 hours at night. And Sripathi probably manages to get some 7 hours of sleep during the night and just 40 minutes of nap time during the day. This is the reason i'm trying to find about sleep therapy.
I was just looking up for some quote on sleep and see what i found

Good night
