[quote=Anonymous]I've posted about this before - when my youngest was 2, I signed him up for an NIH study on ASD and other developmental delays. At that point, we knew he had delays but didn't know they extent of them. I'd not yet heard of a developmental pediatrician (DS was evaluated through EI). A multi-disciplinary team spent 2 half days testing him. I got an great oral debrief and an excellent written report. Not only was it excellent information about his development at the time, it also provided a baseline for how quickly he developed and obtained skills. DS is now 9 and that report (and the follow up report from them 6 months later) have been used over and over. They've been especially helpful to the subsequent developmental pediatricians and neuropsychologists who have evaluated DS. You can definitely do a lot of testing and learn a lot about your DC at very young ages but 3 is too young for a neuropsych - and it's very expensive. I'd find a research study. [/quote]
