[QUOTE="SRL, post: 323729, member: 701"] If you have time to read the book The Out of Sync Child before the Occupational Therapist (OT) comes, it would really help you get an idea of what Sensory issues are all about. I don't think it's too young for her to be scheduled with a developmental pediatrician or an Autism Clinic, especially since it often takes at least 3 months for the first appointment. I'd make an appointment with her pediatrician and tell him you're now seeing sensory issues in addition to the speech delays and that her unusual behaviors have intensified and that you want a referral. If he balks because she is more social than he's expecting tell him there's quite a range in social skills at this age with spectrum kids because it's a spectrum. :) Honestly, if he won't listen to you I'd go looking for a new doctor.
