Guest guest Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 hello everyone, i hope you all had a good start to the week. i have just recently joined this list as my almost 22 month old daughter is having pretty severe delays. she has motor planning issues (doesn't wave, clap, point and doesn't really do any gesturing), walked late, doesn't speak and has huge spd issues. she has already been tested for rett's (came out negative), celiac disease, had the xy karyotype (both normal), and is currently receiving antiviral, antifungal, 1/8 dose of SSRI, super nu thera, udo's oil (for omega 3-6-9), and she is GF but takes goat's milk. we were gfcf and introduced goat's milk with out any set backs. she is only receiving an hour of the following therapies: OT, PT, Speech, early intervention and behavioral, in addition to do the brushing technique and therapeutic listening. anyhow, since apraxia is very new to me (i just saw the developemental ped today), i was looking for some advice and support. are there any fun things you all think we could do at home for the motor planning issues (gesturing)? is there anything you think we should be including in our protocol? do you think SCD is something we should consider? have any of you used the interactive metronome with any success? i'm sorry for the long winded email and so many questions. i just don't know where to start and really want to give my daughter the best possible outcome. thank you in advance! pattie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
