[QUOTE="Lalasea, post: 538909, member: 9154"] Thanks to both of you! Here are some answer to the questions. Pregnancy was pretty normal. He was breach and delivered by c-section. He has a hard time latching and was bottle fed for a month or two while we got that worked out. He seemed to talk/walk within a normal time frame. He made/makes eye contact. He hugs me and asks for hugs quite often. I would say he became noticably difficult around 3 or so. He was stubborn. He didn't always want to go with the flow. He has had behavior difficulty in school since pre-school. He has never been evaluated by a neuropsychologist. The psychiatrist is diagnosing him. My husband and I have not had too many difficulties. He had a DUI about 5 years ago and stopped drinking. But other that that, we are pretty stable and have normal arguments. Although I think both us tend to being depressed at bit, but neither of us are on anti-depressants. He had his tonsils and adenoids removed in kindergarten, because they were enlarged and he was snoring. He did not want to eat/drink because of the pain, would not take that antibiotics or pain medications. We ended up back in the hospital because he was dehydrated. He still refused to take his antibiotics. The nurse tried giving him stickers (I knew back then that was futile). We had to basically hold him down to get him to take the medications. Tried mixing them with ice cream, chocolate sauce, etc. One time when he had an infection (I can't remember why) and was supposed to take antibiotics he refused. He ended up with a shot in the rear, which he said he preferred, because he did not want to take the medications. That is how stubborn he can be. He has friends at school and is well liked by plenty of kids. A lot of the other boys think he is funny. I know missing the last week of school is not a big deal. But, he wants to go. I worry that he already feels badly about himself. We generally take away video games/tv as his consequence and that is what he seems to care about the most. The family therapist we are seeing is big on rewards, so we try to be on top of that as well for good behavior. Hope that fills in a few more blanks! [/QUOTE]
