How many times a week did you get speech therapy? Did you throw tantrums when you were younger and couldnt be understood my 6 year old son does. I'm so thankful you make these videos I have been looking on KZbin for years. I just called my husband to come watch how great you are talking gives us both hope! God bless you!

Chaos party of 4 I got it 5x a week K-6th grade. I had meltdowns due to the pressure of apraxia! I’m glad I can help you both! :)

Can you talk more about dyspraxia? My son was diagnosed with that.

Hi Jordan.. I’m just curious if you also had other motor skill problems. My 3 year old son doesn’t have a definite diagnosis of Apraxia but his speech therapist who specializes in Apraxia is pretty sure he has it. He also has other motor skill problems like fine and gross motor skill delays.

[@courtneywegman9624]

I do have a few questions for you: did you ever notice any sensory issues as a child? Did you have any gross motor delays? Did your SLP do therapy that was specific to apraxia? My son has hypotonia so they are uncertain if the low tone or motor planning is getting in the way of him forming sounds. Maybe both.

Do you find it gets more difficult to speak when you're tired?

[@jordanchristian9099]

Ali Moore OMG yes. So much so. I post about this on my blog!
