Ben passed his hearing test!

I brought Ben into the Ontario Early Years Centre today for a repeat hearing test on his right ear. The test was originally administered in the hospital following his birth; his left passed, but his right failed. It was assumed that the failure was likely due to a protrusion on the right side of his head resulting from being "sunnyside up" during labour.

Anyway, the swelling is down and Ben had his test today - and passed! What a HUGE relief!

Naturally, the appointment directly conflicted with Ben's feeding schedule (appointment was scheduled for 1pm and Ben was due to feed at 1pm,) so I had to wake him from his morning nap early, then feed him early, and hope to get him back to sleep - and stay asleep - before his appointment (they needed him to be asleep to administer the test.) I had complete success and Ben is still napping! :)
