Hi, I'm not from that far up north so can't help, sorry....what problems is your dc having that you need to see a paed for? It might help if you feel able to give a little more info:)

Thanks
Well my Dd is showing ASD type traits mainly stimming when she is "trying to concentrate" and does is it a lot when she is excited.
She has always been a difficult sleeper and has a really poor attention span.
Got a ref from the GP to paed...who said "she is fine don't worry"
Left the paed in tears and I having been googling like mad....(maybe not the best thing to do when feeling so so worried).But I feel in need to see an experienced paediatrician for either reassurance or some support for my Dd.

Well if thats what your concerns are then the NAS should be able to give you a list of experienced paeds....it is hard when you are worried:)
