Aubriella had her eye appointment with the Optician.. She had to have her eyes dilated! She didn't like getting the drops put in because I had to lay her back.. She HATES laying back now she wants to sit up lol The eye doctor said everything looks fine as of right now...He believes it's a hemangioma. But the only way to know for sure is to do a scan... To do a scan she would have to be sedated... 😔 SO she's gonna be alternating between 2 doctors every 2-3 months over a period of several years... They're monitoring her very closely because of it being so close to her eye and hemangiomas can grow very large.. If that happens they will remove it because we don't want permanent damage nor do we want it to effect her vision in any way! She sees the 2nd doctor on Thursday.. They're going to put her on a medication that can either do a 1 of a few things.. 1 stunting its growth 2 making it go away faster (only if it's a true hemangioma) or 3 it might not do anything at all.. As for now her retinas look perfect and her corneas look just as good so we're happy! It's just apart of who she is and to us she's still just as perfect as the day she was born 😊

She was 2 weeks early because the cord was around her neck 3 times.. I had contractions at the peak of them her heart rate would drop drastically.. I had weekly NSTs because I have high blood pressure! That routine scan saved her life@kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom

Oh ok. So not really preemie, but early. I ask because hemangiomas happen more frequently in Preemie's. My son has one and us on medication for it. Your post reminded me of when my son had visits with the ophthalmologist to check for ROP which is another preemie thing.
