[quote=Anonymous]OP, sounds like we have a similar situation with our 11 month old DD. She also does a lot of head shaking and body rocking, and some wrist twirling too. She has severe, severe separation anxiety and has a very difficult time self soothing. She's in PT right now because she has low tone and is delayed with gross motor skills, but her PT (and our pediatrician and my older DD's developmental pediatrician) all think my 11 month old has sensory issues and could really benefit from OT. We've been hesitant to get her going with it because I keep wondering whether it will really make a difference this young, but the "experts" keep encouraging us to try. Burnout is also a big concern for us, especially since we're juggling work and therapy for two kids. It's not easy--good luck with whatever you decide! [/quote]
