2 YEAR OLD TODDLER GOES FOR AUTISM EVALUATION

It's time for Lex, our 2 year old toddler, to go for autism testing! He has been showing some early signs of autism in toddlers and with already having an autistic child, it was important for us to do this evaluation before autism testing.

I am a special ed teacher and there is nothing I love more then the amazing moms that shape the kids I work with, autism moms are literally the best ❤️ moms ever!

[@serinab7894]

ugh i love your channel. im a 18 year old teen mom who is currently going thru seeking an autism evaluation for my 2 year old son, so i enjoy watching you & your family.

[@kimberlyfaircloth2234]

This is so informative. I did watch the video before appt explaining wat you suspect. Our son was adopted at birth. He is now 26 so things were much different then. He was also diagnosed at age 2 with Juvenile diabetes (insulin dependent). So you can imagine what we experienced with a Autistic 2 year old with DM, and asthma.. I pray for strength for you and your family. Thank you for sharing your experience. .❤

[@geekemedia]

If it makes you feel better my daughter didnt start walking til she was two and didnt start talking til she was three. I thought she had autism and I was devastated but as I turns out she didn't. She didnt walk because when she tried to once she fell and cut her chin and that apparently traumatized her and her reason for not speaking was selective mutism. Basically I was told that because nobody understands her when she tries to talk or say a few words she would get annoyed and so communicated with her body language instead because people understood her better, we had to sit there and encourage her to use words for months and we would listen to her mumbles carefulky and see if we can hear a word when we did this boosted her confidence snd like almost overnight she was talking in full sentences. She went from not saying anything to saying "good morning mama" early intervention believed she always knew rhe words but as mentioned earlier prefered not to talk because nobody understood her and it frustrated her. Hope this story helps

[@margaritabehera7534]

Please tell me more about your experience. I have a son who is turning 24 months on November and he only has 5 words. He started walking at 18 and had his first tooth at 13 months

[@carrielynnxox]

My Momskool Thanks for sharing your experience! This makes me feel so much better. My son walked at 12 months but he’s now 25 months and only says about 10 words but regularly he says maybe 5. He mostly communicates with sign language or pointing. He has an evaluation in a few weeks. I’m been anxiously awaiting his appointment. Just wanting to get answers if he is just delayed speech, on the autism spectrum, or maybe just lazy with using his words and communicates other ways instead kind of like your daughter.

[@margaritabehera7534]

@@carrielynnxox I am in the same situation, I started my son in daycare last week to see if theres a difference, he used to have a speech therapist coming once a week since he was 15 months we didnt see any improvements so we mentioned to them if he could be autistic so now they're having someone else come and help him. He does not like to eat, I still have to put his food in the blender and feed it to him. I was very concerned at first by I have been talking to other parents who have children. Take for example my supervisor her son is almost 4 hes just now starting to make up sentences he mainly eats pizza and apple sauce. If I worry too much I get depressed. Hes my first born so I should relax

Yea she really does! And who cares about your house not being picture perfect etc. I actually enjoy your vlogs more than many others Bc it’s more real to me. It’s nice to see families aren’t always jipper and everyone super smiley and happy ALL THE TIME. Not that you guys don’t seem happy but we also see real life:toddlers screaming or throwing milk lol, mom is super tired, autism reality, teens not wanting to clean the kitchen haha! Great job:)

[@brittanylemaster11]

Hang in there girl my baby is almost two and they already said she has autism and already put us in a speech therapy 12 weekly sessions. I know it makes us feel like we're bad parents but that's not true every child is different and goes at their own pace ❤ just got to the part of picky eater my child is surviving off french toast sticks and cheese i feel your pain 😂

Just discovered your channel & ive subscribed & I am binge watching! Lol. My 6 year old son had his ADOS assessment 3 weeks ago and we will find out any day now if he is on the spectrum (We live in Ireland) i think i already know the outcome but time will tell, your vlogs are helping and supporting me alot! Erin x

[@shaunalea823]

I was the same way with my son when it came to admitting he was behind on things, I felt like a bad mom bc I didn’t teach him everything and honestly I thought he would catch up but of coarse he didn’t. I think a lot of us mamas have gone through the same feelings. Go where you need to to get what you need for your son.

[@ajfam4294]

I felt the same way too being a young mum I was 23 when my son was diagnosed with it and I cried for months blaming myself but knowing what it is what causes it I know it wasn't me but i was young then

[@shaunalea823]

A&J Fam oh girl I still cry over it and its been 2 yrs, but I know my son can have a successful independent life. It’s really hard getting past all the emotion. I don’t know about you but getting involved in a support group or w other mammas in the same situation definitely helps.

You are such an awesome momma! So strong and patient. My 18 month old is also showing a couple of red flags for autism and it’s tearing me up inside. He’s my first baby and I’m having a really hard time coping. I know I need to be strong for him but this is so hard on me for some reason. You make it look so easy. He hasn’t had an evaluation yet but I’m asking for a referral at his 18month checkup.

[@colliea21]

[@charitomaquiran8244]

my child was also having red flags at that age with communication problems (speech delay). the dev ped recommended that she should be expose to a small group (toddler class). she is now 3.2 and id say the exposure with peers helped her a lot with her communication skills.

Hi, I am new to your vlog and I am so amazed by the multitude that you do! Just curious... Have you guys thought about the program language program Gemini for your 2 yr old I see the ad for it sometimes when I am watching KZbin with Autism content.

[@MrBirzer]

Your family is so beautiful!

[@StormiFax]

That's really interesting. My son is 5.5 years old level 3 ASD nonverbal, intellectual impairment and partial deletion, partial duplication on chromosomes too. My daughter is 3.5 and she was premature but she doesn't have autism or delays. Good luck in the process, hopefully it's not too draining.

[@andreanairvin7724]

My nephew had no actual words until he was 3, they evaluated him several times, but his physical and cognitive skills were above age it was just speech and some OCD behavior. It took about a year of speech therapy but he was at age level speech. Still OCD behaviors at age 6 and a little bit of speech problems.

[@tenyobe]

You are a wonderfull mother, and the dad is great too. Your kids will be OK, but it will take some time ... .

[@MrBirzer]

Your family is quite normal. Some kids develop later than others. Please don't get stressed out and worry about it. Everything will turn out OK. We all have our individual problems. Just relax and pray and trust God. And... if you're an atheist, ask yourself how something can ever come from nothing without a non-contingent being to start the ball rolling. 😉

[@astridguerra7401]

She saw the red flags Dad & I have seen since 12months old-not a lot of eye contact, delayed speech, etc. Still havent had an autism screening but ugh.

Our AUsome Life fancy seeing you here {: I had lots of food issues too. I remember as young as maybe 3-5 sitting at the dinner table for hourssss painstakingly eating tiny bites of cold pasta that was awful for my sensory issues so I could leave. Sounds were big too. Do any of your kids have issues with “sharp” sounds? As a kid I used to scream and cover my ears when silverware would scrape against bowls or pans , or the dentist with the scraper-thing.. any sound like that is especially bad. I still cover my ears for some and I’m freakin 21. Wild nobody ever suspected autism along with my ten thousand other symptoms lol.

I been a subscriber since my son was 2 and I started suspecting autism. I’m kinda rewatching all your videos . My son actually did get his autism diagnosis . My daughter is 9 months old and they are giving her speech theraphy which I think is crazy and didn’t know it’s a thing . I live in Sanford Florida . I just find it crazy that my 9 month old needs speech theraphy and occupational . She use to say momma and dada then she suddenly stopped. Honestly I’m confused. Though she shows many signs Penelope showed so honesty I’m so lost and would love advice .

[@marinaparks1354]

I know this is old. My daughter turns 2 in July. I have an ASQ appointment next week with her pediatrician. I'm worried they're going to prolong my referral till she's 2 but she's already so behind 😭

[@xxcharmed1xx]

My son nick is 2.5 years and like a month a half ago i took him to a child psych to see what she said. Literally saw him five minutes and said she dont think he is because he is affectionate like really? So i finally found one to evaluate him in two weeks. I really hope we can get a diagnosis. He sees a speech therapist once a week and has been for about 8 months now. He is non verbal and doesnt really say words unless he hears them himself. But he wont voluntarily say words. He head bangs. Will slap himself when he has a melt down. He covers his ears alot. Just alot of red flags. Do you know what happens during an ados assessment for a toddler?

[@DakotaandFamily]

Tg you can get it at that age bc we had wait till dakota was 4 yrs old we were told to wait he was 4

[@amypearsall]

Melanie, I think Dakota and Family meant Thank goodness you can get testing and evaluations done at 2-years-old, instead of waiting until 4-years-old.

4 is awfully late imo. Can you at least do Head Start?

Hello I’m new to your channel and in one of your videos you said that Alexander likes to play with the wheels of the car my son does the exact same thing and he doesn’t talk at all! But my doctor said that she doesn’t think he has autism but she’s just going for our concern.

[@ajfam4294]

just watching your videos tonight made me think what I went thru with my son Jake in 2010 took his dr 2 years to come up with Autism as he didn't want to label him that just yet without other testing to list it to something else and all that coming back normal and said the only think is Autism and he was 4 years old he only had 5 words and that was it didn't walk till he was 16 months old, I felt like I was a bad mother at 23 years old myself cause he was delayed in everything but he was smart in other things he knew how to work a computer at a young age and now his good at naming all planets as thats what his into and for them if the like something thats all they talk about 24/7 well my son does lol. I've been a single mother for 11 and half years and felt with all this i did have my nans help she was there for me till she passed away she was my son world that day telling him she wasn't going to be alive soon broke my heart more he was upset more but got to say goodbye even thro she told him she wasn't going anywhere day before she passed away.

[@ajfam4294]

thanks yea its nice to know I'm not the only one out there. thanks its been a year since I loss my nan. watching your videos I had my son come in and out of his room asking for things he didn't need had to walk him back and now he finally asleep for school which is nice he loves going to school and seeing his friends who all have a different disability to him he did have a best friend who was in a wheelchair until him and his family moved away out of state so he ended up making more friends after that.

My youngest son tested positive for Fragile X syndrome, I am a carrier and never even heard of it before he was diagnosed. It is also on the spectrum.

[@LoveFamilyLife]

This is why with as mild as Josiah's symptoms are I don't really want to mess with diagnosis. I feel like if you aren't around us a lot you'd never catch it. You'd assume it was a fit, or a quirk. Blah. I debate this all time. After researching and implementing some things, it's been so much better. But, still challenging

[@LoveFamilyLife]

Our LANDing Crew yes. I was SUPER concerned at age 3. Like I didn't think we'd make it. 4 & 5 has been better but still different than other my other kids but it could just be his personality and preferences. Who knows. Be

[@LoveFamilyLife]

Our LANDing Crew yeah. It's definitely on the mild end of the spectrum if Josiah has it at all.

[@alexwohlgemuth4099]

I think it would still be worth it; I grew up knowing I was different and struggling, but thinking it was because I was stupid and annoying rather than because I’m Autistic. I wish I was diagnosed before 14. Frequently, as the kid gets older and demands exceed capacity we tend to become more “obviously” autistic, and become much more prone to autistic burnout.

[@KaylaMarie-ij4kb]

So i just found you but Soon my 19 month old son will be getting evaluated because they are saying he falls into the spectrum but yet people i know who have family members that are keep saying they dont see/notice it, so im not 100% but hoping we get some answers, he was starting to talk, but now hes back down to only 1 or 2 words.
