Hi, I would be grateful for and advice or experience anyone is willing to share about my 3 yr old DS2. He has sensory issues, the most challenging are around clothes, getting him to wear clothes appropriate for the weather is challenging at best. He can also get overwhelmed by too much noise, too bright or stimulating environment etc. We have recently seen an Occupational therapist who has given us some things to do with him but obviously it will be a long process. He is on the waiting list for a development paediatrician assessment. He is also very routine orientated and struggles with change/transition. With the clothes issues it is difficult to tell how much is sensory and how much is not liking change (doesn't want to wear a coat as he hasn't worn it all summer. Out grown lots of stuff but won't accept new things.)
I don't really know where to start with helping him. I have seen several books about sensory issues but don't know which is most helpful. Any advice on resources or what has helped other children would be much appreciated. Thanks.
