[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For a girl, it can be too early to tell.[/quote] Never too early, I’ve worked with kids 16 months old [/quote] So why not test at birth then, since it's never too early. :roll: For some children, yes, 6 may be too early to tell. [/quote] They should be tested at 9 months and 1 year as that’s when you can see signs. Early intervention before age 6 is most important. Many doctors do test and if yours doesn’t you should find one that does [/quote] OMG. What is this magical "early intervention" of which you speak? Dying to know here. [/quote] So I disagree with pp — sometimes it is too early to tell. But I agree that if you’re noticing challenges when they’re young, then early intervention is key. DC was receiving OT and speech long before we ever had an evaluation and I truly believe those therapies changed the trajectory of his development. [/quote]
