[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like the OP shopped around for the diagnosis she wanted to get services that were unnecessary. [b] Hypontonia? And, what was the cause?  It is almost always caused by CP.[/b]  SPD is so over diagnosed right now.  My DD had very similar issues as a baby.  She never rolled over, but crab-crawled at 7 months, and walked at 11 months.  She also one of the pickiest eaters.  I would never claim her to have a neurological condition. My pediatrician was not concerned enough to do more than monitor.  All is well.

Anyway, I have a cousin like this.  She is much worse.  It is borderline abusive how she drags her kids into the doctor's office all the time.[/quote]

17:45 again.  Yet another person who knows very little beyond their own experience. There are many causes of hypotonia and CP is not the most common.  Most frequently the cause is unknown but it is always a neurological condition.  My two SN kids have it, as does my DH and so did one of my brothers.  It is far more common than most people realize and, again, it comes in a wide range of severity.  Even though it is a head-to-toe condition, it can be more apparent in some body parts than others.  You are in no way qualified to diagnose a neurological condition and just because your pediatrician did nothing more than monitor your DD that doesn't mean OP's child is the same as yours.  I would also like to see what research you found to indicate that SPD is diagnosed.  As ignorant as you've shown yourself about hypotonia, I can't imagine your any kind of authority on SPD.[/quote]
