Avatar f tn s Going To Act When The New Baby Is Here? Anyone Else Have A Special Needs Child?
Avatar f tn Does anyone have a child with special needs? Hope did you find out? Can you share your story? I'm freaked BC I watched video and read some posts so I would like to learn more and be prepared if it happens.
Avatar f tn They put out all the gym equipment, trampoline and bouncy castle. The children can let off steam for 2 hours. It is for children on the autistic spectrum, ADHD, siblings and invited friends. The rest of the parents meet in another room (similar to a school staff room). We have access to drink making facities and we take turns to buy some biscuits/cakes etc.
Avatar f tn When I got into daycare i never thought I would take on special needs children now i have 2 with c.p. I also try to put myself in the parents place and see how hard it would be to find daycare with a special needs child. I'm not a heartless person I feel it just isn't approiate in daycare.
Avatar f tn I just want you to know, even with special needs children, it is all about how you raise the child.
Avatar f tn The whole situation can be stressful, but either way, you will deal with it. If you do have a special needs baby, you will find that you are stronger than you ever thought.
Avatar n tn It's such a hard thing to digest instantly but have a look into to it and see if you can find other mums with babies that have it. And it's ok to feel bad about it I found out my son would likely have Down syndrome I cried got angry and cried all over again. When I had him he was diagnosed with downs but I wouldn't change him for the world now. At first I was unsure how people would treat him. But he is my perfect little one who I love no matter what.
Avatar n tn Is it normal to be worrying about whether my baby will end up having special needs or not? My doctor said I could've had further testing but that there were a lot of false positives so the testing wouldn't be too accurate. So I ended up passing on the tests. Now that my fall school semester is over I'm finding myself being worried that the baby will have some kind of birth defect or something.
Avatar f tn that seems like a perfectly good reason for that child to need to be in a special needs school. I have a friend who has 2 children who go to special needs schools; one is spectrum Asperger's and the other has a severe protein allergy and must be tube-fed...
556935 tn?1215720270 25 mg of Xanax. Everything we have read says that it has not been evaluated for safety and effectiveness in children and is not generally prescribed for them. What we need to know is, is it ok for her to take them? Should we take her to see another Doctor and have something else given to her or should my husband speak to her counselor about the supposed symptoms, since they aren't something that we have ever encountered when she has been with us? Please give us some advice.
Avatar f tn Well, it certainly should help him fall asleep sooner - which may be her idea. It sounds like you have researched this pretty well. I don't think our opinion is going to matter much to your ex. I think you will need to find a professional for that. I was able to find one report from consumers union which I am posting here as you need the paid subscription to read it. (don't tell). Hope this helps.

1240706 tn?1331602111 I have not personally had experience with disabling conditions or special needs in my family. A friend of mine is a teacher who works with children with special needs. She had a picture on her facebook this week of one of her students (with Down's Syndrome) affectionately sitting with his arm around another student. Her caption was "Here's two of my special kids showing affection... if these two kids can show this kind of love and affection why can't we all get along?

Avatar f tn So my boyfriends dad had one kid that was born with special needs and my boyfriend also has a kid with an ex girlfriend with special needs as well so I was wondering is there any test available for me or him to find out the probability of our children being the same way?
Avatar n tn But at the same time i am wondering what holds for him in future at school for which i need to make him ready with therapy???????? should I wait for problems to arise & then seek help.. I am SOOOOOOOO confused.
Avatar n tn I have to agree with you that it does seem to me that there should be 2 nurses for the children , as you pointed out whilst one is cleaning the child up who is caring for the other child .Have you had a discussion with the Principal about the issue ?
377493 tn?1356502149 He deserves everything every other normal child can have. It’s tough on kids with special needs, making friends and stuff because they can’t get out the same way. But no one deserves to be treated like this.” On Monday evening, Edmonton MP Mike Lake, who has a son with autism, spoke to Global News about the letter, which he said he had a hard time reading without choking up. Lake hopes the mean-spirited letter won’t discourage the family.
Avatar f tn I my bf brought that to my attention when we were asked about the testing ... We both grew up taking care of kids and adults with special needs I work at a hospital where we specialize in that and he use to work in a group home that his mother and father both now works at.
