Hey everyone
I'm Destiny, 22 and I have a son who is 2 years 3 months old, named Ryan.
We have very recently been referred to childs development team, speech and language therapy, audiology and an eye doctor (can't think of their technical name) as for some parts of his development (speech mainly) he is behind with & they think he might have either ADHD or autism, but obviously hes still young.
He was born at 35 weeks due to IUGR so part of me is thinking that might have something to do with his delayed development.
This has come to a shock for us really, but obviously glad referrals are going in now for him, rather than later in life.
I was just wondering how long it will probably be till the first appointment? The speech and language have a drop in until the appointment comes through at the hospital, and we have been advised to go, so our first appointment is Tuesday. What would they actually do?
Many thanks and hope to get to know you all
