We had our first ASL class last week. Our older daughter (hearing) went, too, and participated in the kids' 'class.' (Our 8 month old is HOH) Husband and I really enjoyed it and can't wait to go back. A little overwhelming though...:dizzy: Prior to the class we have acquired a vocabulary of...

My 8 month old wears Phonak Nios S H20. Bilateral. He has a moderate-severe sensorineural loss. According to an attempt at a booth test his unaided threshold for speech was pretty conclusive at 60db and was a definite according to the testers at 75db. One aid was working at the time of the test...

Anyone have a baby that wears HA? My little one is 2 months and we are in the process of making a decision. The audiologist talked to us about Oticon and one other, I can't remember the name :lol: but will be forwarding us some information to go over so we can read about them. But if there are...

Well I'm completely overwhelmed. My son, 8 weeks old has moderate/severe loss (one ear each) and I know that our state's Early intervention program will be connecting with us; we've been referred by the children's hospital that conducted his BAER. And we are seeing an Ent next week. But for...

Hi all, this is my first post. :wave: My infant son has just been diagnosed with moderate hearing loss. I am overwhelmed with all of the information we've been given and what I've found myself online. I am happy to have found this forum because I really don't know where to begin. I know that I...
