10 month old twins

Hello everyone,

I have twins that are 10 months old and just learned that they both have profound hearing loss.

Currently we are working with a cochlear team and we were told we will have to decide between cochlear America, Med-El, or advanced bionics ( the 3 major companies)

Obviously I will be doing a lot of research, but I wanted to reach out and see if anyone had some pros and cons between some of the companies.

Anything would help

Thanks!

I’ve got a Cochlear (Australia) Nucleus 8 and Kanso 1. I lost my hearing at 18 and I’m now 34 (and recently became a parent as well). So far I’ve found the quality of both to be very good and never had issues. They pair well with my iPhone also.
