[quote=Anonymous]Op,

1. you’re doing a great job.

2.  focus on communication.  If you have an iep through the county, ask if you can take the Hanen program.  You can order the book on Amazon or see if it’s in the library:
https://www.amazon.com/Takes-Two-Talk-Practical-Children/dp/0921145527/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1540412352&sr=8-1&keywords=it+takes+two+to+talk

Search Hanen program on YouTube too.

3.  bilingualism does NOT cause speech delays.  Don’t give it another thought.

4.  Get on the waitlist to see a developmental pediatrician at Kennedy krieger and children’s hospital.  These visits are generally covered in full by insurance, but check with yours.

5.  Mcps denied my kid speech therapy too; they also denied the preschool option, and many years later were at a private sn school still doing speech.  They often don’t make sense and have a shortage of speech therapists.

6.  If you have the money, I highly recommend the summer programs at National Speech and Basic Concepts.

Lastly, give yourself a big pat on the back.  You’re doing a great job.
