LEX'S 4 YEAR OLD SIGNS OF AUTISM || Overlooked Autism Signs 

My son was diagnosed at 3 1/2 years as severely autistic. We were advised to institutionalize him immediately because, “he will never be able to function independently.” 😢 He’s 18 now, talks non stop 💪will graduate in May 2021, is in National Honor Society, and I’m planning our trip to Disney World so that he can meet Snow White! 🥰 He told me that she will be standing by the wishing well! 🤣 He was super skinny until he was 8 years old and I had to have his pants and shorts made! We found really cute patches to put on his pants and he’d peel them off chew on them so we had to sew them on! 💪😎

I think Lex's long hair is adorable! People never ask parents "why is your daughter's hair long?" or "why haven't you cut your daughter's hair?" so it irks me just a tad when people ask that about boys. Some boys like long hair too! :)

I wanted to applaud you for saying you don’t want to use your kids experiences (potty training) because it might embarrass them when they’re older. 👏🏻 A lot of families on here expose their kids most embarrassing moments!

Whew! You blow my mind! Only a super specially blessed mama can keep every kiddos traits & dates & appointments & specialties & all of the things straight! Idk how you do it! I’m over here telling my family about your family & they’re laughing at me because I’m trying to tell them everything I’ve learned & they are telling me that my face shows pure amazement! 😆😳😍 Sending love from my little corner of the world! 💙💚💛💜

So in a nutshell I've been watching you since Liam was a newborn and I've had problems carrying a full term baby for years and told I could never get pregnant. I carried my son that is 10 months now for 33 weeks without knowing. I watched your videos everyday! Every time I watch you he STARES at the tv and listens to you so intently. Like I want to cry hes been listening to you talk for months. He never pays attention to adult shows ever and I find it so amazing. I wish I could show you video, I pause it and he gets upset I play you and he always sits and listens so nicely which is rare!

I’m watching this as my two toddlers nap and every time I heard a kid scream I stopped and thought it was mine 😂

your page has helped me soo much! my daughter is 2, just started walking and cant talk. I didnt know were to start with her, but your page helped me begin. her ASQ was 6 out of 30, on mchat she scored 10. so definitely made me realize I was not imagining things and she was very behind. Started early intervention were they said she is more like a 12 months old, and shes on the list to get diagnosed. thanks for everything!

I am thinking my son may have autism or sensory issues, but my husband doesn't exactly want to hear it! It breaks my heart that there is such a stigma associated! ❤❤❤

I love your honesty! It is this honesty that is so helpful to families.

Love to follow you and hear about how far it have come with helping people with autism. 22 years ago when I became a mother for the first time, it was I who had to learn how my child worked. I have three children all with adhd + asbergers and more. They are doing well today overall. So maybe I did something right. I, have learned a lot from them. Like meeting people where they are not based on how they are. Anita/From Sweden

My beautiful 16 year old daughter decided to go in for testing. My sister has 2 sons with Autism. She and others with children on the spectrum have told me throughout her life that I should get her tested. My daughter was born at 26 weeks, so I expected whatever came our way. Her social skills have always been off and sensory issues to the extreme. Generalized anxiety since birth.just to name a few. She was in early intervention until age 3. She is wonderful. I focused so much on her medical issues, I didn't focus as much on anything else. Thank you for this. It is very informative.

My question was the first answered. 🥰 Loved this video so much. I also get so many people questioning Jude and myself because she is not a typical individual with autism. Love your family. And congrats to lex for all his accomplishments. 👍👍

I dont know why I laughed at: "she pretended to stab her toe, he didn't care. " 😅😅

My little one is very much like Lex, but is very echolalic. Developed on time for rolling, sitting, walking etc. Lots of words at 12m and then lost them. He is 28m and we have to wait 1.5 before he can be evaluated.

Lex falling asleep is so cute!

This has reassured me so much. My youngest has started labeling things now at 28 months. But she cannot speak practically. She cannot answer questions or tell me things but she can label things. People are starting to write her off and it drives me insane because sometimes you can just tell. And I KNOW there is a disconnect for her. She can’t tell me what she wants, she just screams and hits me. As weird as it sounds. It’s nice to know that there is a possibility for answers

I have 3 sons on the spectrum. 13, 10, and 8 years old. They are all SO different. I also have a 5 year old daughter who has hit EVERY milestone. Talks great, walks great but I’m wondering about her now because she started showing some stims. And I’m wondering what else I missed! Autism is definitely not one size fits all. Thank you for this community!

I’m high functioning autistic and I actually spoke very early and had a large, advanced vocabulary at a very young age. I also was suspected to have hyperlexia (reading at a very early age). But I hated being touched, loud sounds, was a picky eater, poor social skills, poor facial recognition and expressions, and didn’t respond to my name well. Watching your videos has shown how autism is different in every case. Hence why it’s a spectrum :) 🌈

My almost 4 yr old too doesn’t have the classic autism. He is very delayed with speech. That is pretty much his only weakness. While most autistic kids struggle with sleep my son does not. Has always been a great sleeper, will sleep from 8pm-7-9am. Will takes nap a few times a week. For stimming he’s like lex, his stims aren’t too noticeable, more like typical kid behavior. My son is a cuddle buddy, loves to hug, lay, kiss, cuddle, he’s just always so sweet & cuddly. Never lines things up, never has been fond of blocks much or stacking. His thing has always been letters & numbers, obsessed. Puzzle, reading (started reading words at 1) can now read at least 100 plus words now. Academically he’s a genius. Doesn’t have much sensory issues. The typical autism sensory like noise lights commotion sounds textures etc. my son has no issues with. Has sensitivity to pain, low tolerate to pain. Although this speech is delayed & has a language disorder he is remarkable at communicating his wants, when he’s hungry he will verbally say I hungry, ask him what he wants & he will tell you exactly what he wants, when he has to potty he will tell you potty (just was potty trained 3-4weeks ago) The list goes on. But yes, I completely understand you & can see how frustrating it can be with doctors specialist. Because they’re always looking for the typical classic signs. Also my son was diagnosed early 16 months. I had to fight to have him tested. Everyone thought I was crazy. But i knew since out the womb that he was indeed autistic.

This sounds like my sweet 2.5 year old!! We are getting tested on March 30th for the 2nd time elsewhere. The first one was done virtually and I just felt like it was such a disadvantage for really evaluating him as whole.

My 2-year-old loves Blippi too. He could watch it on end for hours. He has learned so many words from this show. Sometime it just amazes me he knows a random word, until I realized he picked it up from Blippi.

My son is very similar. Ive been so unsure whether I'm doing the right thing getting him assessed next month. This makes me feel a bit better

You are amazing at explaining things! 👍

My daughter is 4. My husband caught the signs before I did, Azul is EXACTLY to a T exhibiting Everything Lex is... I'm going to get her checked out. We knew something was off but I ignored it because I was scared and hurt and ashamed of myself. I want to produce Healthy good babies. And I didn't. I didn't do good for them. My oldest has Autism and her younger sister (3yo) has hella medical problems. I just broke out in tears bc I been researching all morning and this video was the most helpful information Ive received..... Thank you, Not All Heros Wear Capes.

You're describing my four year old. He met all his milestones early except for his communication. He's outgoing and loves to go to school and meet new people. So it's really hard to diagnose him. Everything you described is exactly like my son.

Wow, you have just described my son. From 18 months old, i started questioning if my son had something going on. I was constantly told it's because his a boy, twin, premature, and i felt something else was going on. Now, at 4, we just got our diagnosis of ADHD, ODD, and Autism.

This sounds exactly like my son who is now ten, who I knew was on the spectrum and he was assessed at 3.5 and we were told no, he wasn’t. Fast forward to this summer, at ten years old, he was reassessed and this doctor said yes- there was no doubt or hesitation in her mind. She said she knew right away. But the first doctor at 3.5 said he wasn’t because he “made eye contact.” Also, when he was referred to speech around that same time, they said he didn’t have any issues with speech- it was just “baby talk.” So basically he went all these years without having access to services etc because they didn’t believe he had autism. So frustrating! (And his middle name is actually Alexander☺️) but yes Lex reminds me of him so much.

I just wanted to say you're a wonderful person. Love your channel and your gorgeous family. Keep up the blogs!!

Hey you are a great mom and thank you for sharing your experience and educating me.

Thank you so much for this currently in the process of getting my son evaluated and this is definitely helpful as a worried mom in the weird place of feeling like I feel he isn’t on the spectrum ,but then again I think he is .

My son was diagnosed at 4 I trued to get him tested since one because of signs I saw and was told he was completely fine he ended up not talking until 4 1/2 and had a lot of sensory problems

I haven’t watched you in so long! But STILL love your videos, Thank you!

Just beginning the journey with my 4yrs old daughter and this is so helpful. I appreciate you making this channel and video!💕

You just described my 4yr old 100% but I haven't had him diagnosed yet.thank you for this videy

Thank you for sharing so much. You help so many people.💙💙💙👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🌟

Thank you Stephanie! I love being a member of LANDing Crew! I love you Lex!

My son who is 12 now he talked early and very clear, but the playing social skills NO! He was and is still very almost territorial at our home, but not when he is outside of the home. He is very "good" @ school, but when he gets back to his comfort area he melts from masking all day. He did not play with kid toys except Nerf guns and some cars. We had him assessed and they said inconclusive😮. My daughter never missed a milestone, but now I know she has autism also she is social, but has no idea about how to or boundaries. She also does not answer me when I say her name until I say it several times. She has no stranger danger or survival alarms that should go off. Both have so many sensory issues, but both "seem" average unless you know anything about autism. I am self diagnosed after ADHD diagnosis and taking meds.

My son also look social but looks like it’s Autism. He will be 4 years in march and still cannot talk . Like you said he will say small things here and there but not able to talk properly

Great video Stephanie 👍, always learning along 💕

This was so helpful. I’m waiting on a development pediatrician.

This was so helpful to me 😢 thank you

Very informative!! Thanks for sharing.

I think I was pretty similar to Lex when I was little. Speech delay, some sensory issues (milder), less obvious stimming, et cetera. It's interesting with my family because I'm autistic, but my brother isn't. Yet we were both similar in a number of ways. My brother and I both had speech delays. He began talking at 2 1/2. I began talking at 3. He was in speech therapy until about 11 and I was in it until about 8. The only major difference there was that while he had a mild phonological delay, I had that and a mild expressive language delay. And, we both have mild sensory issues. But unlike me, he's always been great socially and super able to adapt.That just shows that speech delays and sensory issue don't necessarily mean autism.

Great info!!! I think my 4 year old son has it

I was diagnosed with NVLD at age 8 but I think I’m misdiagnosed my parents don’t believe me though I only went for 1 assessment and was diagnosed straight away.My parents started to notice something was off when I was 3 and I had extreme trouble focusing even with simple things like eating I had a hard time focusing on.my parents then brought me to a pediatrician and told my parents it was probably either high functioning autism or add.At age 4 I was obsessed with any type of animation and would love drawing out characters(age 6 was when I started)of my favourite movies and sometimes even rehearsed some movies I never even seen only heard of such as sleeping beauty which I never even watched the movie I wasn’t interacting with other kids very well and would sometimes even get into fights with other kids at daycare in one fight the other kid even bite me and my mom had to pick me up early because of it.I loved the feeling of pressure and spinning around and would sometimes spin around in circles.I would also tighten my seatbelt tighter than normal because of me craving pressure.I started handflaping around this age,had little to no eye contact. I still sometimes handflap if I get too excited.at age 6 my parents separated and because of my needs not being met at my first school my parents moved me to another school.I didn’t adjust well to making new friends and even hit one of the teachers and one of the kids in my class out of frustration and not knowing how to interact with people and manage my emotions.I was diagnosed NVLD at age 8 my teacher noticed I wouldn’t interact with other kids like normal and would lack focus and often daydream I also was behind in my language skills specifically knowing how to communicate what I think and argue my point.Because of this my teacher recommended I get an assessment my mom got me one and I was diagnosed NVLD straight away and got an IEP and a request for a school computer.At age 10 my communication skills were below average for my age and I wouldn’t engage in conversation except for with my one best friend and my family and even still they had to keep the conversation going .If I did I’d only respond with a basic answer such as if someone asked me how I was I would only respond with good and wouldn’t say anything else out of not understanding how to keep conversations going I’d also interrupt sometimes when I really wanted to say something and didn’t understand how taking turns talking worked.my teacher noticed I had low muscle tone and would often fidget get angry and aggressive such as yelling even shoving my desk violently sometimes.My school asked for another assessment but I’m currently waiting on my dad’s friend who’s a physiologist to do it (I’m so far still diagnosed NVLD) as I’m still waiting for another assessment and don’t know when I’m getting it done but I still struggle with some of these things such as lack of eye contact,daydreaming,focusing I still sometimes handflap or spin in circles.I have really good hearing and according to my family I have recently been talking to loud but I don’t notice and have trouble with knowing how to adjust my pitch of voice.Thanks to my conscellor my mom got me although I’m still behind for my age in communication I’m starting to improve thanks to my councellor.

I knew you made a video of autism overlooked! My son is almost 3 so he's about to age out of all his therapies so he needed a full pysch evaluation. My son has many autism characteristics but the doctor couldn't determine wether or not he has autism. He has a genetic disease, sotos syndrome so he's isn't sure if it's just sotos characteristics only or autism as well. Were going to have to wait until we can schedule a in person appointment (the evaluation was on zoom).... I was a Lil fraustrated. I was hoping for a yes or no just so I can know where to go from here . But I'm so glad for all the videos you make!

I don’t mean this in a mean way. But do you always use your hands that excesively when talking? If so. How do your autistic children handle that? I’m autistic and it felt so overwhelming I had to look away from the screen and go on audio only. Otherwise great video. Just curious without any ill intend

My 4 year old is diagnosed with autism. Im on the fence about it. He is completely none verbal which of course tells me something is definitely wrong. However, that is the only sign he has. He absolutely loves cuddles and I think he would snuggle all day long with me and dad if we allowed it. He will come to us a few times a day and climb in our laps and put his little arms around our necks and puts his head on our shoulders. If he wants something he grabs our hands and brings us to what he wants. With no speech being the only sign it is indeed strange. My parents tell me I didnt talk till I was 4. I'm definitely not autistic lol. I'm a registered nurse and I absolutely love people and my patients and have had a typical childhood expect for the fact that I have a very high I.Q. My oldest son was also in a special school for gifted children. So, I just don't know what to do at this point. Edit* He also doesn't have any disruptive behaviors. He doesn't have a mean bone in his body. He is almost angelic which I almost find abnormal in itself. He is the kindest child I have ever met, with empathy for others and listens to everything we say. If he picks up something we don't want him to have and we tell him no, he will immediately stop.

I wish I lived in America where there are programs like ABA because Sweden does not have these programs.I feel like they are not helping my child as they do follow-ups after 6 months and they expect you to help the child at home.

My Naz also 4years old and half same with Lex and diagnosed ASD.

Thankyou for giving me hope honey.

please please do an update on lex... my daughter is literally lex in everyday and Id love to see how he is going now.

I'm running an Autism based Readathon on my channel in April in the bookish community here on RU-vid. I'm was wondering if I could share the video on the discord that I'm running if it's okay with you?

I love it! "The queen of stimming" lil baby

My daughter was VERY similar to how you describe Lex as far as when she acquired language. She didn't walk until 18mo. She didn't really talk words until 2/3. You couldn't understand a word she said until 1st grade. Shes 12 now and the speech evaluator says shes "fine" but she isn't. She doesn't pronounce R at all still. She calls herself a 12 year older instead of a 12 year old. She talks a lot like Noah quite often. She is has a high IQ that we didn't discover until we started homeschooling at 9 after her school psychologist put "mentally retarded" in her school file. She has trouble with names and dates. Often she knows all about something but just cannot explain. Doctors have whispered "autistm" and "aspergers" but have been reluctant to say yay or nay. They says she just doesn't quite fit any of the diagnosis neatly. They'll be convinced its just a language thing and then other times they are convinced shes high functioning and on the spectrum. They have her the ADHD label. My MIL is convinced ADHD should be part of the spectrum and be considered under that umbrella. Other doctors (her hubby) say they are separate. Both are brilliant doctors and neither can decide if she is or isn't on the spectrum. They sent us to friends who are also specialists in this area and they cant quite decide either. WE have heard maybe CAPD, Autistm, Asperger's, Language Based Learning Disability, some kind of speech issue, hearing issues, just an interesting kid, mentally retarded, high IQ, stubborn, shes messing with us, shes fine, we cant understand her but dont know". Its been a long 12 years. She could barely feed as a baby but only my mother in law thinks that's a clue. She always says "doctors hear hoof beats and think horses not unicorns. We should consider the unicorns more often". Things like a gluestick, she calls a pok of glue. She went through a stage where she literally humped everything. She still sucks her thumb. She chews her hair. We ask her to explain things and it isnt what youd expect from a 12 year old...however she knows EXACTLY what shes trying to say. If you give her a list of similar descriptions she will give you the correct one and can expand on that. She usually cant answer questions from scratch on her own. Shes afraid of nothing. She broke her arm the first day of Kindergarten and didn't even care. Even now it isn't a deterrent. Her arm was broken for 3 days before the swelling was noticeable. They swore at the ER it couldnt be broken because shed be screaming when they were touching it. It was broken in 4 places. She never even flinched. None of it adds up to autism but its enough to put us walking this thin line between like 5 things. We did speech when she was 6 and had to teach her first, next last, on, under ect. Once shes taught things like that she remembers but she uses the wrong words for stuff all the time. She doesnt know the months of the year. This year we finally gave up for a while. Between COVID and her growing anger over people trying to "find out whats wrong with her", we felt like we just had to back off for a bit. I hate not knowing. My mother in law told me to assume she is autistic at this point and work on the issues ourselves. I am so fortunate my Mom is working on a home where everyone is autistic. Most are there because they aren't safe in the community and have committed some kind of crime. My daughter is not as severe as some of those adults but a couple of them were tricked into doing bad things by adults and have to simply relearn the rules of society before they can leave. She shares an awful lot of traits. Its all exhausting not knowing and just guessing all the time. The thing that has kept doctors from actually giving her the diagnosis is that shes never really had temper tantrums or melt downs...pretty sure that is not an actual requirement. She does though, people just dont see it as a melt down. If shes in trouble she just wont talk.

Thank you for sharing...❤

Thank you.

He sounds so much like my daughter. She didn’t talk until she was 3. Now, she’s advanced at academics but, can’t really carry in a conversation with her peers. She has a great vocabulary. But, she can’t figure out how to navigate conversation.

You are an amazing mother and this video is very very very helpful and resourceful! Thank you!

Autistic kids rock!

Thank you very much Many greetings from Germany!

If you have Medicaid coverage is there coverage for all of these therapy programs. We're in will county Illinois. New Lenox area. How do you find these people? My daughter does not drive. Thank you Luka is 3 1/2 years old. Not speaking.

Loved this video! Lex is such an adorable kid! My son Mason has not been officially diagnosed with ASD, but does have Sensory Processing Disorder. He does a lot of things Lex has done. Repeating things he hears on TV or in school and definitely struggles with answering questions like “how old are you?” But like you, I didn’t think anything of it until he was about 3. Thank you for making this video! Bc it makes me feel like I’m def not alone. I look forward to hearing more about your family ❤️

How many therapists and doctors does one have to go to, to find out if a child is on the spectrum? I am a godparent to a child that is exhibiting subtle signs at 4 years old but my friend (the mom) only is consulting with one behavioral therapist. I care for my godson, but Im not the parent. Im just wondering if there’s a chance that one therapist can miss to diagnose. Just like how we often have 2nd or 3rd opinion with other health concerns.

My 4 year old has moderate autism. He can freaking read. It's super strange "mama, Go Walgreens please" I looked at him in his car seat and Walgreens was on the corner. 🤷‍♀️ I just don't know anymore he has super mixed speech language. 😕

My daughter is 2.9years old. I feel she could be on the spectrum. She isnt showing 'typical' signs but definitely signs.. Alot of what you said, i relate! She looks at us but she also avoids. She is hard to get attention. She jumps ALOT.. She broke her cot when she was younger due to jumping so much. She doesnt understand questions fully like you were saying! There are many more signs but this video i was like.. Yep. Yep. Yep. Ive been told they wont look at her until minimum 3 years so just looking into things myself atm xx

How does one go about getting your child reevaluate when they already have a diagnosis

I did the spinning thing too at lex’s age and still do sometimes

I kind of wish that his unusual signs were list in an easier to follow format. I like the story style, but it be nice to have the signs just listed.

Please watch its our wonderful life,young mother of 6,oldest just turn 7,4 year old twin boys with special needs, husband trying to get transferred to Colorado, so they can get help for their boys,I told her about your channel, you are such an encourger, maybe you can give her some encouragement, she is so sad,her mama just passed. I love you and your family

I had early intervention because my so was a premie by 7 weeks. He was a bit slower with some of his skills. They were worried because he slide down stairs. I was not! He had called down a few steps so he did not feel safe so I let him go down on his butt. Only at home he did it . But he was a preemie so I got what ever I could get him in to be the best he could be. He had low muscle tone in his legs. But we worked on that by trying to ride his trike that was hard. We went on walks s lot. We gave him boost from my dad. It did help him to gain a bit of weight. He was a skinny child. He is a big d has been tall. He is now 18 and an honor student in school. ( On line to start his senior year!). He is 6 feet 3 inches now and has possibly 3-4 years to grow yet. The doctor told us after he set and plated it with screws . His bones were that of a 23 year old and he was 17 then. Not really hoping he grows the 4-7 inches the doctor said he could grow. He is all arms and legs. Oh well I am sorry I rambled on.

I’m watching this because my nephew is 4 and doesn’t talk , and throws temper tantrums, he does not respond to normal request and demands... we are afraid to mention it to his mom because she definitely knows he’s behind but defensive and in denial that he is behind , any suggestions on how to bring up the topic

It's very very annoying.... it's so hard to deal with it but we must, it's just really hard.

My grandson is 3 and doesn’t speak , he’s had some speech therapy but not much progress , instead they taught him to say please in sign language 🙄 I FaceTimed my grandson tonight and I called his name 20 times and he didn’t respond at all :-( I did ask him for a kiss and he came to the phone but other than that .. just doesn’t respond , when I’ve visited he doesn’t point he takes you to what he wants :-( My daughter tonight told me he has issues with food ... he is supplied to be evaluated and a specialist called them on zoom last week to evaluate hahaha but of course my grandson got upset so it didn’t happen .. my grandson needs help but I guess if you dong have great insurance they won’t evaluate in person so sad

My daughter is highly functioning. She is on the spectrum. Two different doctors and bipolar. She is very violent at times. Can you give info on that.

First comment love your vlogs

With the help of Doctor Isibor on youtube using his Herbal supplement on my 4 year's old son who had speech delay has improved positively and started saying few words and now he can speak fluently

I have a 3 year old that is just like lex im in Orlando & my pediatrician sucks 😕 were still trying to get him speech therapy to start

You should put a chain on the door so Alex won't escape out the door

I’m getting tested for autism

What is the genetic abnormalities? How did you know about that?

These videos are awesome as the see what real life signs can be looked for..and what they look like.

Great video! We are getting our 4 year old tested tomorrow.

This video came at a perfect time. We’ve been going through some increasingly rough stuff with our 4 year old little guy. He’s such a sweet kid and I know he has a heart of gold, but he just doesn’t seem to care at all about other peoples feelings, and he just terrorizes my friends daughter who’s also 4, and he beat on my 11 year old nephew this week while visiting my mom, and overall we just have so many reasons to believe he’s on the spectrum. We are also in Colorado, but are about to move to Nebraska and I’m honestly not sure where to even start with getting help. Any suggestions? He’s not currently in a school setting but we plan on getting him into pre-k at a nearby public school in August. It’s just really been a struggle and of course everyone has their opinions but I just need someone to tell me if it’s my fault or if there’s something going on with him that I just don’t understand. 😔

Thank you for this video. 😀 Does Lex do Home Based ABA or at a center? We’re currently trying to figure out what’s best for our little one. Thank you 👍🏻

Lex is cute a little hyper but he’s a good kid

Where did you get the sign? 💙

Great video my 2 boys both have 22 q deletion and that can be autism some times aswell there both in special needs schools xxx ❤️ one is 10 and my youngest is 4 xx

Does anyone have any experience with GAPS diet?

Can you share how you knew that liam was going to be non verbal VS your other children, my son is almost 3 and has a speech delay. He often says new words but then doesn't say them again He consistently says mama dada go I did it But that's the only consistent things. He says he is in speech therapy but he just began. He does constantly babble though. Thank you for your videos as a new mom to autism. I'm struggling accepting this in seeing how strong you are in your journey and your kiddos. Journeys it really helps thank you ❤

Did Lex respond to his name well when he was younger like 18 months. My son is not very well responding to his name and I am so worried

My daughter was just recently diagnosed with autism through the elementary and I asked them what level she was and they said they’ve never heard of “levels” with the autism spectrum disorder.. should I get a second opinion?

I can’t remember if you mentioned this before but have the oldest two kids been tested for the chromosomal abnormalities you carry?? I would be curious to see if they do and I would imagine it would be something they would want to know when/if they have children in the future.

I forgot to tell you this but when you were talking about Lex and Sophie interactions it reminded me.... when we got home from CO Sophie said “I like playing with Lex, he is nice now!” 🤣🤣

Lex and my son I swear are twins lol

Do you plan on putting Lex in sports?

I have a 4 years old and I suspect he is on the spectrum.

How many signs does nely know

Aren’t all kids hard to raise? 😅 just me?? I mean they don’t come with instructions.. 😂

🙏
