adamsmum

I still have my own dolls and im 28. My best one is a cabbage patch kid

we have had no more words yet but i can realy see hes trying by showing me picturs and so on. I realy think he will start to speak propaly soon im so proud we got him a hot wheels mag today he was realy happy we let you all know how it go's thanks for the support

Adam is 7 and nonverbal. He did say his fierst words the othrr day but nothing since it do's show it's posible and it's one of the best days of my live. mentaly Adam is 18months so it can behard at times but the other day made it all worth while. Good luck

I would wont them to dx AS if thats whot it is. Ks not dx yet and it couses hassel not just with school and dss but at dentists and docters to thay always ask if hes dx and dont take it seriasly when i say no. Pluss it may be usfull when shes older. Good luck

happy birthday hope it was a good one

Has enyone looked at a website calld a quater of. I can recomend them i have a sweet tooth and i love choclat mice and the choclat cups

Adam has said his fierst words today aged 7. He has said car tracter and yes whilst looking in a booklet for toys I am so happy and proud i actuly cryed. I thout he would never speak so this is so speciel. I cant wait to tell everyone. Hearing his voice today was the best sound ever.

hi,we have until tomorrow lunch time,when the community nurse visits to make our mind up whether we want a social worker or not ,previous experiences 4 yrs ago in dorset .a special needs social worker was an interfering crone who wanted to know what we spent our money on and said that there was nothing she could offer us ,like respite or funding ,when our health vister got us funding for a mcclaren buggy.she kept visting even when dh said she was useless,and actually caused more stress,when she should have been supportive.ie when kieran went for routine visit to childrens ward and ended up being diagnosed as tortured with fag butts ,it was actually infantigo?excuse spelling.ended up with 2 burly policeman and i wasnt allowed to take kids home,dh was phoned at work came steaming down gave police and social worker piece of mind,how they were useless as she hadnt pulled kierans file and he was scared of tall men as his real father was tall and he had beaten him so how were 2 intimidating tall policemen going to get what happened out of kieran in 10 mins. end result apolgy from health trust.and recently a social worker visited promised to send details on special needs friendly places of attraction,whilst banging on about funding cuts etc etc .end result went away and nothing recieved,so is it worth having a social worker just to end up with nothing and having 1 more meeting to put up with,when i havent got time to relax anyway.

dident see this and glad i missed it

Thanks all. Im now feeling better. Max is doing well. Hes a realy good baby dosent cry much but then now ive said that The other boys love him to bits Cain has been trying to give him crisps and cars.Im coverd in wee and sick and not slept all week but im the happyest mum alive

Im starting to have real worrys about going in to hospital to have baby next week I will have to leave the 4 boys at home 2 are AS one hase sn. DH will find it hard to cope he's not got much patience with the boys and he realy dosent get on well with eldest at all I now i will come home to a war zone and my boys will be miserble. DH will take it out on me and i will feel bad for leaving boys My mum was suppose to help out but she looks like shes not coming as her american freand is visiting she not booked a place to stay enyway. My DH has been non stop slaging off my mum for months saying she will be usless enyway and will make mess but at least she could keep eye on things. Me and DH have not been getting on lately it's been an unplessent place to live moore then once ive thout of wallking out but we have nowher to go enyway. Sorry to go on but ther is no one to speak to and so much on my mind most of wich i still cant bring myself to tallk about. I realy dont know whot to do

Just did this test for 8 year old son he got 166 thinking of copying it of for school and pead as we are waiting for diagnoses

My boys have only been back at school 3 days and i now have 2 bills . One for �45 for 12 weeks swimming lessons. One �5 a week horse riding. I now somtimes shcools can ask for a folentry contribution towerds a school trip but can thay realy make you pay by not letting a child take part if thay dont. I thout if somthing took place in school time it had to be payed for by school. We dont work and this is getting expensive. My DH is going crazy and my eldest is insisting he has to go to thes swimming lessons how can you say no but then wher do's the cash come from. We only have 5 days to pay the thirst �15 for swimming pluss �5 horse riding is this realy legal eny ideas whot i can do

Good luck Im shore you'll be fine. We have 5th boy due in 2 weeks and youngest is 18monthes eldest 8. Yes we are insane but we love them all to bits Let us now how it go's

I gave them to adam and ther was no change wishfull thinking i think but others may see a chang its good for them enyway

we have similer problems. we live in a small villig and are the local outcasts it use to upset me but now i just get on with my own live. I got fed up with explaining my boys SN as thay will never understand If your neighbours think thay got it bad thay should try living next door to my 4 pluss my DH with his big gob. As you maye gather we dont speak to next door

Hi lindy I hope india likes school when is the baby due mine is due on 21st sep My boys are all exited but i dont think 18month old will be happy do's india understand that your having a baby is she exited

vinegar neutralises the smell of wee dilute it and give matteress a scrub, dry off then sprinkle with bicarbonate soda and hoover off it works.

Sorry but i cant wait for school to start next week as my 4 are driving me insane with the non stope fighting screeming and winging . We have 5th boy due in 4 weeks and i can do with the peace. Lucky for me my boys wont to go to school as thay like the routine even if thay dont like the other kids. I just hope the change in classrooms dont upset them to much

i took kieran to see an ot today and after the hour an half session.she is going to suggest to consultant peadritrian?[spelling].that kieran has global devolpmental delay,does anyone know good site for this or has a relative diagnosed with it and can enlighten me on it.had a quick search on uk sites but they were more general delays.oh she rated kieran at 4 yrs.in general.he is 9 in feb.and is it connected to as,any replies in english please as we both have headaches now.

My boys eat fresh fish every week so if thay had supplements would that not be a bit much. I dont wont my boys taking vitamins if i did i would go and buy them

Thank you both. Will start tue after carpet is layed will let you know how it go's

My 15month old boy is being a real pain at night. He sleeps in with me and DH. This was my fault as i breast fed and it was easiest. Now he plays up all night waking and crying for no reason so i think its time for him to go in his newly decorated bedroom. he's on the bottle now so no excuse the problem is how do i get him to go in there at night without him feeling rejected or frightend. Also a friend told me i should leave him to cry at night im not sure about this as he's so young any advice im desprate for a nights sleep

Me and DH havent been for a night out together for nearly 5 years. I havent had an evening to myself for nearly 3 years. Yes it's very depressing infact thats an understatment but no one will look after my boy as 3 are SN.
