Hi Mel. Did you just get these off their site? I don't see any basic ones

without writing.

Ok, that may be a problem if you only want plain ones:( They ususually

come in 3 or 4 packs where 2 have writing and 2 don't. (At least the 2

packs I've gotten do). I usually use the ones w/ writing on them at home

and the striped ones when we're going to be out and about. I don't have

the pack that I attached but my packs are similar. I have never ordered

online from 's. If you sign up for their e-mail updates you get

coupons sometimes which is nice. Hope that helps.

Also, my guy has macrocephaly, too. His speech also sounds similar. He

has several words but he'll have a word and then seem to just 'lose' it.

Is that what happens w/ your guy?

This too happens to our son , 14 months, also with macrocephaly. He will

say different words and then they will go away and then come back later out of

nowhere.

Hey - I'm posting in the wrong place, so sorry (yahoo ID isn't

working...).

Very briefly... After Quinn was born, my friend started a charity, Out of

the Gray, to help women caregivers who find themselves in pretty extreme

circumstances. I was barely making it out of the house in clean clothes,

never mind things without holes and stains. She saw that there was a need

for decent clothing, selected for the individual shape, needs, and

preferences of a client. Her work is amazing.**

Six years after Quinn arrived, Out of the Gray is involved in a contest -

the winner receives a grant for $5000. That money allows us to serve an

additional 16 women in 2012. Please vote, chare the link, encourage your

friends, family, acquaintances, medical personnel, whomever, to go and vote

as well.

**The deadline is noon Friday, December 9, PST**

Yes, they come and go. So far they have been Momma, baba, Daddy or Dadda, did,

ning ning and I could swear nana one time. Started in February, the only

milestone he ever hit on target ;-) Then went and have came back randomly. He

had Dadda for a while, lost it and now it's back again. Not sure if his brain is

just allowing itself to be overtaken by his developing Fine and Gross motor

skills that have taken off lately.

Our neuro said today that sounds like he's just delayed. That if he had 50 words

and they came and went that would be another issue.

We will watch and wait.... like with everything else ;-)

& Mel, do your kids just have PMG and Macrocephaly or is the Macro part of

a larger diagnosis? I think I wrote it earlier but Ian has been diagnosed with

MCM Macro Capillary Malformation

Shari,

As far as we know, Luke just has PMG (BFPP) and Macro. Macro during my

pregnancy was what led to the PMG diagnosis via fetal MRI. He has enlarged

ventricles but it hasn't turned into hydrocephalus. He's had several MRI's

since birth to watch the growth of his ventricles because his head has

continued to enlarge at a somewhat alarming (mysterious) rate. They still

don't know why. He has excess fluid around his brain but it's starting to

slowly decrease. Megalencephaly and Macrocephaly are essentially the same

thing, right? What exactly is Megalencephaly capillary malformation as it

was explained to you? Luke is in a research study and so far part of the

info we've gotten was that he falls on that spectrum along w/ PMG - my

neuro basically said that depending on who is doing the diagnosis depends

on if it's called macro or megalen. I'd be interested to hear how it was

explained to you.

The language thing sounds exactly the same - a few weeks ago he had 'apple'

solid! He was saying it fairly clearly and gesturing toward it in books.

Aaannnnddd it's gone. He'll sometimes repeat it if I say it but he won't

point towards it anymore or spontaneously say it.

Our SLP said the same thing as your neuro basically - as long as he's

making gains and developing more words than he's losing then we shouldn't

worry:) Easier said than done, right????
