Hi Everyone, Just after a bit of advice. We have put together bullet points of what concerns we have with our 3yo DS. The health visitor has been and agreed there are 'issues' But hasn't be a great help.
? Refuses/unable to use cutlery
? Unable to turn pages one by one
? Unable to peddle a bike/trike
? Flaps when running
? Spins
? Unable to catch
? Doesn?t play e.g Role play
? Either refuses to eat or will only eat certain things
? Can not count past 10
? Can not count objects
? Very OCD about things. How things ?should? be, E.g his blanket must be perfect
? Easily distracted
? Lack of eye contact
? Doesn?t always respond to name
? Unable to follow through on a task
? Very disturbed sleep( up 6-8 times a night, Always sleep talks alot
? Near or no letter or number recognition
? Lack of understanding danger
? If things are not in their right place he gets very stressed
? Likes to be by himself
? Hides away when stressed
? Unable to hop
? Can only squiggle when drawing
? Can?t blow his nose
? Can?t do buttons up
? Can?t put on shoes,Coat etc
? Doesn?t like loud noises
? Because very obsessive about certain things. eg Recently it has been pictures,
Also everything has to be a routine, If we say we are doing something we have to follow through or he will get highly stressed and hide away,He doesn't like people turning up unannounced.
He has started pre-school and has settled in brilliantly, They have a routine and he takes a packed lunch so at least I know he will eat. Any advice would be great on how to make life a bit easier, We took these points to our GP and he said that it is all normal behaviour for a 3 YO. We also have an 8 year old and never had these issues with her.
