[QUOTE="meameame12, post: 606196, member: 16847"] So a little background: our daughter was born slightly early, via c-section, at 38.5 weeks, due to low amniotic fluid. She had issues latching to mom, for about 2 months. Finally, she latched. However, mom returned to work about a mth later, and daughter had issues readjusting again to the nipple. At age of 4, we realized she had a eating problem--she would never take any solids. At all. So, we had to mush everything up for her to eat. We took her to a eating/food specialist, at a rehab center, and they worked with her for about 4 months. They told us her issue was basically mental, based on the food feels in her mouth. At this while, she still was "afraid" to defecate in the toilet. She urinated with no issue, but defecated in diapers til around the age of 5. Her teachers reported her isolating herself with imaginary play, would not join groups, and would simply do her own thing. It got so severe, I withdrew her from K. She then repeated K, with issues of a new teacher saying she "patrols the actions of others." 1st grade teacher said she has severe focusing problems, hums a lot in class to herself. 2nd grade teacher told us he suspected Aspergers with her. Mind you, I never told him about her previous issues, as we had moved to a new school district. He even reported her "crawling" outside of the doorway, to go to the bathroom. Obviously, I was shocked at this. Oddly though, she does have a lot of headaches--almost, daily. She has extremely fast speech, is very smart, and is super quick to learn concepts. Just socially...is oblivious. In any case, that is some background info. Going to bipolarity, my wifes dad has it extreme--he has not worked in 30 plus years, and has been on lithium ever since. But that is it for bipolarity. What is a neuropsy? Is that a neuro psychiatrist? Or a psychologist? We did see a clinical neurologist, who looked at her for 10 minutes, asked a few questions, and said, she doesnt have Aspergers. He did order an MRI, which showed everything is normal. What do you think? [/QUOTE]
