My son is now 5 months 21 days old, he was born 67 days before he should, and stayed in NICU for almost two months.
We took him to doctor last week and the docter suggested us to have him physical therapy for cerebral palsy as he,
1. Walks on tiptoes if put his feet on floor
2. His tiptoes often bend downside
3. His legs are not so flexible as other normal infants.
By now he could move his eyes and head along moving objects, he could slurp many syllables, he smiles a lot, he could erect his head for a long time, he can grasp toys, and seems study them sometimes. And we had the MRI result yesterday, it said everything of his brain was normal.
However, he can't laugh by now, and seems have difficulty in feeding, sometimes he even crys when being fed.
So it is really a hard choice for us, should my boy move on with the therapy? Thanks in advance!
