[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is a diagnosis of apraxia at age 3 not common? My son is 2 1/2 with severe expressive language delay- our doctor told us he is too young to diagnose for apraxia so just curious about that comment [/quote] Apraxia is not that common. However, in those that have it, age 3 is the idea time for diagnosis. They are still young enough to benefit from intensive early intervention but old enough that a differential diagnosis can be made. CAS is often suspected prior to age 3 though. When it’s suspected, children can receive earlier treatment without the formal diagnosis. Our son was suspected at age 2.5. [/quote]
