Go check out OT now!!  Sounds very similar to my child -- his motor planning/fine motor/attention trifecta are clearly inherited in part.  You can make a lot of progress before K.  We started in Sept and I'm very glad.  Also nervous about K, but feel much better situated now.  I think there's value in starting K already understanding the challenges better and being able to communicate them to the teacher, instead of just waiting for problems to arise.  [/quote]

PP---did you get OT without a prescription?  Are you paying fully out of pocket?  Not sure if I can just find an OT or need to see someone else first. [/quote]

NP. That totally depends on your insurance. We didn't need a prescription but if you do, even your pediatrician could do it. [/quote]

I didn't need a prescription for my insurance, but I'm sure my pediatrician would have done it.  I ended up getting an OT evaluation covered by insurance, but we are seeing an out of network OT closer to home for therapy, for which I expect to be reimbursed about 50-70%.  Where we live (DC) there just are not that many in network OTs.  [/quote]
