Guest guest Posted June 7, 1999 Report Share Posted June 7, 1999 I am curious. Does anyone else on the list have hearing problems. I know it is a long shot, but I have to ask. AJ has had 3 different types of hearing tests druing the past month. Conclusions-she has a mild to moderate hearing loss. She also had a speech eval. She is really slurring these days. We know now, it is partly due to the hearing problem. I also learned that because AJ has spent very little time chewing (compared to other 3 1/2 year olds), she has not built up the oral motor skills-tongue muscles, cheeks etc...that are used in speech. I thought that was kind of interesting. Anyone else have speech delays?
