Newborn hearing screening is everywhere now -- in the United States and other advanced countries. However, there are countries where newborn hearing screening is not as available, and even in developed nations, a baby can show evidence of or acquire a hearing loss, later in babyhood. There are ways parents can discern whether a baby has a hearing loss that can be verified by an audiologist.
