Laryngomalacia
Laryngomalacia. What is it? Well it's the medical term for a floppy larynx. My daughter was born with it. It means her voice box is even more immature than a normal baby's.
The tissues of the larynx collapse into the airway when the child breathes in which is what causes the noisy breathing sound they make. It is usually present at birth and gets better as the child gets older. It can take up to the age of 2 for a child to recover from laryngomalacia. Sometimes the child can be older.
There is no precise cause of laryngomalacia. It is all unknown. All different babies will present with different symptoms for this as no baby is same. I was fobbed off by my hospital and GP that my daughter just had mucus on her chest after delivery, despite the fact she stops breathing in her sleep, can't sleep on her back and has reflux which is more common in babies with lm.
Some symptoms include:
Noisy breathing which becomes worse with agitation, crying, excitement, feeding, the position they sleep in.
Poor weight gain
Difficulty feeding
Vomiting or spitting up
Choking on food
Stops breathing
Chest/Neck retractions
Turning blue
Gastroesophageal Reflux
There's a lot of support groups for parents of children with LM. Some are on facebook and there's also a few forums. If you can't find them don't hesitate to contact me by clicking on the contact me page.
Updates to Blog
As I continue as normal with blog posts I will also be doing my upmost best to get this up and running and to the design I want, but more importantly is the posts on here so stay tuned for some posts that are relevant to my life a lot because I live with it but could also help you. I'm in the process of doing a new signature because I don't like this one but everything needs to be signed so for now your stuck with this old one.
An Intro To Us.
All chucked in. Your probably sat there thinking well what's all chucked in. It's exactly what it says. It's everything about my life, some advice, some stories and whatever else I can find to chuck in there and complete it. So you what your reading about, but who's writing it?
I'm Jenny, I'm a 21 year old pro-breastfeeding, baby-led weaning, co-sleeping mama. I believe in attachment parenting to some degree. I believe that answering my babies cries straight away will always resolve in a positive outcome. So in a nutshell that's me.
Life's a rollercoaster and I'm finally ready to live it, discover who I am and help out along the way... So are you up for the ride? Because I am.
