hello, my name is Nikki and i have 2 boys 12 and 3. my 3 yr old was just recently diagnosed with sensory processing disorder and A.D.D.. To start out Gavin was born 8 wks early. weighing in at a whopping 4pds 11oz. from that very moment i was nervous even tho this was my 2nd boy. he had to b held tight or he would cry. only ate 1-2 ounces every hour . exhausted , my pediatrician kept re assuring us it was just average preemie symptoms. he wouldnt eat cheerios, walk , crawl, or talk well. finally at 15 months he dared to eat a cheerio. and by 2 he walks when he wants to but most of the time crawls because he insists he a race care
( lightning Mcqueen ) and continues to think that. he will b 4 next month. finally about a month ago we met a really great child psychologist who with in 30 minutes told me what was wrong.. and for the last 3 years the pediatrician had me thinking i was crazy because in his 10 min. check visits he didnt see what i was talking about. so since being diagnosed with spd ive read SO MUCH! just wanted to introduce my self and i look forward to talking and exchanging good ideas.

thanks for reading.
