Guest guest Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 We started shots on Thanksgiving Day. We added nasal spray about 11 weeks ago.When we started shots my son was already very verbal but not at all conversational, still isn't. But back then he would only sing the last word of a line of a song when it was either playing or if you sang and left off the last word. They started a new song of the month at school to coincide with the class getting caterpillars and watching them change to butterflies. Two days after this being sung at circle time 2x a day (and my son not singing with his class) he started belting this out at home yesterday. I had to hide the camcorder. If he sees it he won't perform. These are the words First comes a butterfly and lays an egg, Out comes the caterpillar with many legs. Oh, see the caterpillar spin and spin, A little chrysalis to sleep in. Oh, oh, oh, look and see Oh, oh, oh, look and see Out of the chrysalis my, oh, my Out comes a pretty butterfly.

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 Karrie, He is adorable and so is his singing. Thank you for sharing this. Haleh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 We do both together now. Shots every 3 days, spray every day. The shots are easiest for us because he sleeps through it. He's pretty good for the spray too but sometimes there is a little bit of resistance.

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 Wahoo! Congratulations to your family!!! Since you used both the spray and shots, do you felt one is more preferable over the other???

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 He was 4 at the end of November. Even when he had very few words, his speech was always clear and there are always comments on his speech evals about no articulation issues. His speech issues are tons of scripting, repetitive speech, echolalia, and only about 30% of his speech is used to communicate appropriately. I had to fight a war for speech therapy because they told me he had too much language. NO, he doesn't, he has lots of words and talks alot but I wouldn't call what he does " having language " KWIM?

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 Sure do, Kerrie, that's what ours was like, in the beginning, prechelation, tons of words, but would talk " at you " not to you. Words are great, even greater to use them to communicate what you want. We did no speech and still she falls way ahead of age level now.Great work!
