[QUOTE="quietplz, post: 323643, member: 7702"] The baby is 20.5 months now and I have a few more questions please. She has been having speech and play therapy twice a week each, an hour a session. In some ways it has helped a lot. She has a bigger receptive vocabulary than she used and has many signs even though she mostly "talks" only to herself. She even has a sound she uses like a word! On the other hand she has been acting more obviously different. She has to hold things in her hands all the time, like crayons or spoons, or she has a fit. She does odd things like dragging her finger nails on the walls for a long time, biting the tips of her fingers, being obsessed by animals whether they be toys, pictures or alive. Still won't actually interact, but rather uses people as tools to accomplish what she wants. Has a need to be held tightly to be comforted. The therapists say she might have sensory differences, but won't explain beyond that. What is a sensory difference? Why would the therapy, which seems to be helping her, make her act so funny? Thank you for any help, I am just so confused. [/QUOTE]
