  • @Jens_Hoes It’s the autism screening. They’ll most likely give it to you to fill out at your daughter’s 18-month exam. Waving the glove made me LOL!

  • @PensiveCrayon how are you feeling about him failing?
    Here is a picture of her with the glove  :D


  • @kristah2 my son is almost 2.5 and I'm not rushing to move him out of the crib honestly. If you don't need the crib for baby then I wouldn't rush! Or maybe do a bassinet for a bit then switch them around later? Idk, we do cosleeping so I don't need our crib right away for this baby.

  • @Jens_Hoes Okay. I’ve been lamenting his issues for the past several months and I guess have come to terms with them in the process, so it’s less of a mental struggle than I thought. Also, he didn’t fail super hard — he’s just really independent and doesn’t ask us for help/show us stuff, etc. So there’s hope, especially if he starts therapy as early as he can.

    I wish this was an option but we're going to need the crib. My son wouldn't sleep in a bassinet so he was in a crib from about 1 month onward and it's always possible this one is the same.
    Plus from what I read if you're going to use the same crib / nursery it's best to try to transition them about 3 months before baby comes and takes over to avoid any jealousy of "that's my bed" 
  • ^^DD's pediatrician said the exact same thing to us re: 3 months. 
  • @PensiveCrayonIt sounds like you are handling it very well. I think it is wonderful that you are so proactive with his needs.  Also, I have seen kids who receive a certain score and are placed in the appropriate therapies and groups, only to hit several milestones and test out a few months later. It is such a wide spectrum.
  • @hoosiermama-2 I just laughed out loud a little at the thought of the sitter looking ragged lol at least that means she's working hard??
  • @Jens_Hoes Yes! My first thought was, crap I hope we're paying her enough. But then I was like—pshhh, she's 20 (young!), she'll be fine.  :D 
  • @katy0990 That's exactly what I'm hoping for :)
