DS has just had his hearing retested as he did not respond fully at the 8 month check-up test (he had a cold).
Today, the test was still not very good(he now has a chest infection) so he has been referred to the hospital for yet more tests.
HV said not to worry as he is making all the correct noises and responds to the majority of the sounds. It was the whispers and very light rattles he didn't fully react to, he just turned his head to the side instead of fully round to the source of the noise.
Anyway, once I left the clinic, I was quite upset as I have all sorts of scenarios going through my head.
So, was wondering if any other Mumsnetters had babies who had to have more than two hearing tests and subsequently found out that it was to do with colds, wax build-up or any other reasons (just to stop me from panicking!)
