[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know of any (sorry!) but I’m curious how many posts - including this one- will be made questioning OP, questioning pediatrician, but not answering her actual question.[/quote]

9 months is far to young to diagnosis.  Infant and toddlers wouldn't even consider it.  They can try or they'd have to pay privately.[/quote]

Infants and toddlers sees newborns under certain circumstances.  They absolutely will see a 9 month old.  Whether they will see this depends on what the evaluation revela.s.  I will say that my kid, who didn't babble at all at 9 months, and who was considered high risk due to also needing a feeding tube, said his first words by 13 months and by 18 months was testing above age level.  So, it's possible for kids to make great gains.

For very young children, Anne Reynolds at ARCCornerstones use to be one of the very best providers in this area.  She has retired, and I don't know who has taken on that role.  [/quote]
