Gawd, I can’t keep up today!
Glad you are both philosophical about interviews Life and Meadow. Better behind than in front of you at any rate!
That pony?!
Sunny is it you that suspects EDS and the professionals aren’t taking it seriously, or has someone else suggested it? I can’t think why anyone would resist referring your DS for diagnosis if it’s a possibility. Forgive my ignorance but is private diagnosis not an option? It isn’t really for ASD, I guess because it is seen as a subjective judgement for an individual clinician so to get support from the nhs you need to go through their multidisciplinary diagnostic process. But EDS isn’t a ‘behavioural’ Condition so diagnosis is much more objective. 
. I hope this doesn’t sound as though I am taking you to task, I’m not at all, just baffled as to why you would not be getting help from the Gp and others to refer (with an expectation that it will go somewhere!). I hope you get some answers and that if he has it the prognosis is good ( through my previous work I came across a few patients with this and their symptoms varied incredibly widely).
On a lighter note DS is also exceedingly fond of his willy. In fact he asked me to tickle it the other day, so I explained that his willy is just especially for him next step is to work on the ‘in private’ aspect. (Tbf, I tickle his tummy, cheeks etc a lot so I can see why he thought it was a reasonable request 
)
LSD, just £8 top up shop. Oh, and £13 to the Amazon for a book on child development 0-5yrs. I am feeling a little worried about my beautiful little DD 
. She rolled months ago when expected (just a handful of times really though) and then stopped. I honestly can’t remember the last time she did it, weeks ago though. And there’s a few other developments I’m looking out for but not sure of the normal window for them appearing. I really don’t want to feed my fears so I thought hard before buying the book but I don’t think Dr google is helping either, better to have a proper reference. So we’ll see. I did ask the HV at the weighing clinic the other week and all she said was ‘all babies are diffferent’ but with DD at nearly 9 months and not rolling I’m not feeling particularly reassured.
I am also fretting about my dad. He had cancer a couple of years ago (not one with a good prognosis usually) and was lucky to make it through treatment and get the all clear. But he called yesterday to say he’s been getting worrying symptoms and is being called in for a scan. I know he has a bad gut feeling about this and so do I. Trying not to think about it until the scan is reported. But again. I’ve been a bit tearful today.
Was supposed to be getting my new front door installed tomorrow but it’s been delayed as the new door was damaged during delivery to the fitter chap so they have to make a new one. 2-3 weeks. It doesn’t matter at all really but I was rather too excited about it. Which just goes to show that I need to get a life 
Like you Cag I really need to get to sleep earlier. Zzzzzz
