Infant Hearing Test

I took my baby from 6 months to the doctor today for his checkup. I was expressing some concern about his hearing because he does not seem to turn in the direction of the sound or make a response. The doctor recommended that a hearing test. She said that the test involves him having to be shelved'm not sure how I feel about it. I want it to be tested, but that's the part I'm sedation uncomfortable. Everyone had done this with their young. Are you glad you got it to do and also do not have resources.

There are other tests that can be made with the audience. my friends little sister has to undergo a hearing test when she was 2 and all he was certain sounds and tried to see if the baby looks a certain way. - But I guess that assumes the test was not very specific, I say a good test idk still have not heard, I do not think I'd do that to a baby.

I think u should wait until it is a little older, then do the simple test.

Personally it is not possible, I'd go for it. If I were you I would find out the exact details of research and the devil out of him!

I had my daughter tested at about the same age, because my husband is hearing impaired. The medical device is stuck in his ears, took less than a minute, and it should not be sedated at all. I would check with your local service for the deaf, and see what they recommend. They can sometimes refer you for tests, and sometimes you might not have to pay anything.
