[QUOTE="Over, post: 303903, member: 7974"] That really sounds like cerebral palsy to me. My 5 year old has CP, and has many of the same issues. The only one she didn't was the speech. Everything else is VERY similar. She has an awkward gait and falls frequently, she wears braces on her legs for stiffness. I think you should go to your primary doctor and ask to take her to a neurologist. At the neurologist they can do an MRI and see if she has any brain damage from the drug use. My daughter had extensive damage. Due to the same bio parental issues. They showed me the MRI and there were huge black patches. The doctor said she wouldn't walk, talk, roll over, and would be wheelchair bound, so prepare for them to tell you worst case scenario. Don't believe it. My daughter is 5 and is in regular Kindergarten with an aide. She is insanely smart, precious, and funny. We decided to let her decide what she was going to do, we gave her every opportunity for therapy. (She's even been riding horses for therapy since she was 2!) Hugs to you and her! Heather [/QUOTE]
