They aren't just looking at few isolated skills. Rather they look at a variety of present and emerging skills. There is a wide range of what is typical for motor development. If the child is doing well in other areas and thriving there is less of a cause for concern. If the child is having feeding issues, medical issues, growth issues the ped is usually more concerned.

being boy or girl, 1st, 2nd or 3rd does not determine normal milestones for normal speech development! My 3rd child, a boy, has been getting speech therapy since 20 mos, and glad he has been. He has global delays now (at 2.11) but the early help has helped. He will go to special needs preschool and get even more intensive help in many areas. It's not smart to "not" seek an eval just b/c a child is a boy, or not a first child, in my opinion. [ Reply | More

right, I'm 48 so expecting I'll start having symptoms sometime soon. I want to avoid taking any drugs if possible -- I'm a bit paranoid about it, b/c I have a friend who went thru early menopause (at like 30) so she did HRT, and then she got breast cancer at 40 and I can't help thinking it's related.

yeah. There are conflicting reports but I would rather just get through it if I can. So far not that bad, just annoying [ Reply | More

[ - ] Anyone else completely sick and tired of dh's hobby? Mine is an amateur musician and I'm going out of my mind hearing him practice the same few bars of the same piece over and over and over and over and over... 12 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More

yah but he's very obsessive and it's isolating and irritating--I kind of wish he just played video games like some normal guy [ Reply | More

now that would be isolating and irritating! Eventually he will get better and maybe it will be fun. What does he play? [ Reply | More

I fantasize about joining in sometimes, but I'm too lazy to practice the way he does. We're just really different personalities I think. He does one thing repetitively until he gets it right and I do a lot of things in more of a half-assed, but getting-to-completion kind of way. [ Reply | More

I'm more like you. That's the beauty of a kazoo though. You just have to be able to carry a tune [ Reply | More
