Hi all
Went to see my GP yesterday about DS1's behaviour and he has referred us to a consulatnt paed. I had gathered lots of examples of his behaviour and he said he thought it sounded like ADHD not ASD.
My son is wet at night (5.1yrs), has not slept a full night since he was born, seems to have no social imagination and asks 'what shall I do next?' all the time. He won't and never has played alone even if I start him off and say I am going to put the washing out or something. He is aggressive towards his sister and she doesn't want to bring friends home because he won't leave them alone and is very physical with her and friend.
When we were on holiday he needed constant (and I mean constant) attention and we started to see repetative behaviour/language and he couldn't be distracted.
He shouts, gets too close to people and I couldn't take him to a shopping centre because he would be off making mischief.
He doesn't do this all the time and when he is with me alone he is the sweetest boy (although demanding) and we can sit and read and play.
As a baby he breasfed constantly and it was a standing joke I was always on the sofa when anyone came round.
What do you think???
