[quote=Anonymous]An OT eval just told us my 4yr old could have mild upper and core hypotonia. She has never had a delay in milestones as a baby and was walking/talking by 1yrs old. She swings, jumps, plays all over the playground. She throws balls pretty well. The only thing I have noticed is she is a slumper and has oral fixation issues. She never sits upright in chairs, has difficulty with circle time and is always moving, almost appearing uncomfortable sitting still UNLESS she is working. Then she can sit at a kids chair and do well. She also tends to eat her hair or suck on her hand occasionally. But everything I look up online, even mild, shows much more drastic low muscle tone issues. Who do I go to get a proper evaluation and what type of home tests or exercises do you recommend to see/help her? I can not seem to find things for upper body/core as much as infant and lower body. Thanks in advance. [/quote]
