frustrated after seeing paed again (another round of wait and see and zero support in the meantime)...

[chocjunkie]

we saw the dev paed this morning again (dd, 3.5, is has severely delayed s&l, sensory issue, asd traits and we start to think she might have LD as well). after the first meeting with the paed in spring we were told that he wants to wait and see a bit more. fair enough.
now, after the second meeting it is again just wait and see (next appointment in october). we don't really have any support atm (apart from nursery who is giving DD loads of support). we could not get a referral for OT, we are on the waiting list for SALT (but have been told it is very long and it will take quite a while until we will be seen despite DD's speech and language being about 1.5-2 years delayed), no developmental assessment, no referal for ados etc. nothing :(

we are feeling totally left alone. DD has good days but quite often life with her is just hell - everything is a struggle with her and we are quite desperate for support.

is this the normal procedure to just wait and see and basically offer nothing in the meantime?

is it worth going private?

TIA

I meant private for assessment/dx...
