[quote=Anonymous] My dd was dx at age 4 and a half. My first concerns were at 12 months, when she wasn't babbling (or walking). At her 12 mo ped appt, red flags were raised on the MCHAT, and the ped said she was referring for EI before I could ask her to do it.

Her first dx's were gross and fine motor skills delay, then expressive and receptive language delay and sensory processing disorder. She got services from EI until age 3, then she got speech and I also got her in OT and private speech. I also got her on waiting lists to get a neuropysch. Finally got an appt when she was 4, and after a 2 day eval, she was dx.

My dd is friendly, but doesn't have close friends. She is friends with one girl with ADHD, and seems happy with just the one friend. Defenitely now at 10, I'm seeing the social gap with girls. The gaggle of girls at church that she used to run with on Sundays (all kids of volunteers, so they spent lots of time together) is moving on to clothes and boys and she has zero interest.

She's come really far in a lot of ways (fully verbal, the sensory stuff is better) but now it's stuff like anxiety. We are actually going to a pyschiartrist today for the first time, because it is impacting her life.[/quote]
