[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, but I wouldn't think about it as "missing" his issues. Whatever they are, they weren't really detectable until he reached a certain developmental stage and wasn't meeting the norm. Some kids do OK in early preschool, for example, blending in with all the other nutty 2 year olds, but then the other kids mature and they don't keep up at the same pace. [/quote]

[b]Thinking back though I did miss some signs but DS is an only child[/b] and I just did not know...[/quote]

That's easy to do especially if teachers, doctors and others are also missing it too.  We saw the signs early on, waited till two as the doctors instructed and got help - earlier help would not have made a difference.  As long as you get the help, that is what is important.[/quote]

Eh. I don't think this matters TBH. We know several families with older NT children (one with 3 older siblings and the 4th has SNs) and it is really hard sometimes to distinguish "normal" from "delayed" or other issues. There is such a huge range of normal especially in the 0-4 age range. Diagnosing kids is difficult even for developmental pediatricians and we're not professionals. [/quote]
