[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, your DD is currently 3? What prompted seeing a developmental ped?Are the behaviors disruptive? If not, I would give her time. She has had a lot of assessments for a 3 year old and it doesn’t sound like anyone has a solid diagnosis or path you should be following currently. Sometimes things are more clear as kids develop.[/quote]

Op here. She has epilepsy and is on medication for it so the developmental pediatrician is one of the things our neurologist recommended.

You make a good point-we had parent teacher conferences a couple weeks ago and DDs teacher said that DD is a delight. The teacher did say that DD can sometimes be distracted or unwilling to join circle time but the teacher said at 3 this is expected and we still have a whole other year of preschool before DD has to start kindergarten so the teacher is giving DD some flexibility this year. DD is also the youngest in the class so I think the teacher is mindful of that.[/quote]

Ah, that's some good context.  I think the epilespy meds could have some side effects on behavior, right?  And being the youngest.  It's possible this is nothing.  If practitioners took really detailed notes of our daily lives, all of us would look very weird!  I think your focus should be how well she's able to learn and perform the daily living tasks you'd expect of a 4 year old.  As well, she should be enjoying playdates and starting to talk about other kids in class.  [/quote]
