Since ds1 was 9 months old everyone that has cared for him ie preschools x3 holiday play schemes, child minders, schools and peaditrican has said how active he is. But they have stressed to me how uncommon this amount of activeness is. He is highly intellegent - reports to prove, but no-one has ever been able to get him to do what they want him to do unless he is given one on one attention. He will be going to school in September which i have been waiting for for 2 years as i felt that he was ready when he was 3. But have just found out that the area i will be moving to only except kids for 3 hours a day til January.
I am gutted as he is very able. I would just like to hear from other mums that have proof from professionals ie reports saying how active there sons or daughters are.
I know most mums will say their kids are active but my pead says unless you have reports confirming this and how unusual it is. it would not really be a concern. Sorry to be so specific..
Peads are saying that he may be on the spectrum of add and autism but until he is in full time day care they do not want to label him.
They are saying this case is mild but very uncommon.
