Well done Mel and Brooke I have lost 6lbs over the summer hols. Another 18lbs to go and i will be at target. I have been neglected this thread lately...........

It is really hard getting a balance. Me and my daughter go shopping on a Saturday when hubby comes home from work and looks after M. Take care

Hello My asd son is nearly 8.5 and he is still obsessed with water. Running taps, making waterfalls and creating swimming pools. You are not alone.

I would also like to say that this is a march of support for all children and adults with autism throughout the uk.

Hello Been given some information on the march. It can only be a good thing ............. PM me if you want details. I will be going! Forbsay

That is really good

Totally know where you are coming from. My son was diagnosed with autism at the age of 2.5 years old and he is now 8. Take care Forbsay

Hello We have gone to the hospital for M to get teeth out. He gets put to sleep (I can never remember if this is local or general ) If you have any questions, please PM me. Take care Forbsay

Brilliant news - very very well done

Hello Firstly, you are not alone. The people on this forum will know exactly whee you are coming from. <'> <'> Take care Forbsay

M is having major meltdowns today Everything and anything is setting him off Oh the joys

Hello My ASD son used to do this. I got around this by having a box and put some papers, books etc into it and this is what he was allowed to rip up. This worked for him so you could maybe give it a try. Take care Forbsay

Hi It does take time. My son was diagnosed when he was 2.5 years old and he is now 8. It took me a long time to come to terms with his diagnosis but I have got there. I now focus on all the things he can do. You are not alone. Take care Forbsay

That is such lovely news. Take care Forbsay xx

They are like that at my NT daughter nursery. I usually just stand there like a tube. And i am not in any of their groups of the yummy mummys! My little angel is starting school in August so will see how that goes. However, i think it will be my hubby who will be doing the school run. Forbsay

Well done

hello yes, i agree with the others that this is a personal choice. My little boy goes to a special school for ASD children. I feel that this is the best place for him to go to and the difference in him is amazing. He also goes to an afterschool club with his one to one carer. This is with NT kids. This has not been without it's difficulties, however he has got alot out of it. M learns from other kids but i personally feel that he would not have coped with a mainstream school. He also learns alot from his little sister. They have a very strong bond.

M is autistic and get the medium personal care rate. Hubby is a driving instructor and works about 20 hours a week so that he is there for M when he gets out of school etc. Hubby earns less than �95 a week. I am currently working full time but I am just wondering if we are entitled to it? Forbsay

Hello everyone. I lost 3.5lbs this week. Forbsay

Hello You can get all in one vests with poppers in between the legs. We used on M when he was in nappies. We got him out of nappies at 5.5 years old It did the job. Forbsay

I think they were totally out of order saying that.

I went back to class today - 2 stone to lose!
