[QUOTE="frustrated440, post: 87686, member: 4091"] Thanks for your comments Midwest, but I'm not sure if you read my whole post because you mention the early interventions and how important they are. My son is receiving speech and Occupational Therapist (OT) weekly. I was just looking to see if other moms have had similar problems with their child. I work in our school system here and plan to ask the school Occupational Therapist (OT) about all of this as well. As far as a developmental pediatrician., we already saw one and it was a horrible experience. First our son got car sick on the way, which was because of my brilliant idea to let him look at books because it was over an hour drive. Bad idea, he threw up and we had to stop off for clothes. I dont know if youve ever been motion sick, but I get it alot and you just dont bounce back after you get sick. So he was pretty miserable through the whole appointment.

I thought we would at least be there for about 1 1/2 hrs. but were only there 40 min. and we were only late by 10 min. The whole appointment. was a total blur. So after that appointment.
