[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 515641, member: 11847"] for Sweet Pea. She had her first 2 sessions of speech therapy (on top of the playtherapy geared toward speech) and Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) almost think it's not a language issue. She signs to good or sponteneously imitates signs. But her very limited vebal expression seems odd to him. He said he does not have a big enough sample to be sure, but it very well could be a motor planning issue. Her rustration is increasing I can tell. Specially since she understands EVERYTHING. She used to be behing on that but is filling the gap pretty fast. But then, she just can't express her needs. And you know: toddlers have LOTS of needs! lol I don't know how soon we would be starting Occupational Therapist (OT) and what it would all entail, but if we keep going at that rate: we are all going to learn ASL! Her Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) only knows the minimum, like 50 words. I wonder if that will eventually be a problem. I like understanding stuff and know that I have control (yeah yeah, I know...), and with Sweet Pea's speech: it's like the big unknown. Is she going to be in therapy for ever? Will she ever be able to have clear speech? What is the prognosis for bright little girls with a motor planning issue? How about outside of the house? She already signs to people who have no clue what she's doing... Yep, lots of questions to which husband woud answer "don't worry, she'll be fine". How does he do it? lol [/QUOTE]
