Greetings everyone. My nephew was born at 7 months and had a cerebral hemorrhage shortly after birth. After a while, we learned that the baby has hydrocephalus. He had surgery in a short time and a shunt was placed in his brain. When his body refused to accept the shunt, he was taken out once and reinserted after a while. During this process, his blood got infected with inflammation, his fever rose to high degrees, and as a result we learned that he had meningitis.
He recently got out of the hospital, we are looking after him at home now. The head structure is close to the structure of a normal baby, but there are deformities due to his illness. Physiotherapy was started immediately, it was said to continue moving at home. The baby can hold his head and stand on his feet when held upright. I would be very happy if mothers who have experience in this area can help us on how to act and what we should do.
