[QUOTE="BRBoutofmymind, post: 389910"] Hi and thanks for replying! I am at the end of my rope. I feel horrible spanking him and we try not to and as susiestar mentioned it doesn't really help which i am slowly realizing. He says a few words, mama, dada and nana (his grandma) and bye bye. He has also mimicked a few words that he heard us say like baby and cookie. Other then that it's all gibberish. He was developing normally till he was about a year old then it all just kind of stalled. He would babble and he can walk and eat. He does indeed make his needs known for the most part. He will let me know when he wants a snack or something to drink or to play with his crayons or play-doh. He does make eye contact with my husband, his grandparents and myself (we're around him the most). He also does cuddle. He loves cuddling and hugs. He makes a lot of contact with me and his father and doesn't shy away from us at all. We have had his hearing checked out and it's fine. I thought it was his hearing when this all came about but he hears just fine. He just doesn't listen lol. He goes to the St. Louis Childrens Hospital once a week for speech therapy so I will talk to her about getting him diagnosed. We've discussed it before and tried to get it done (our insurance isn't that great) and for some reason they stall every time. The speech therapist has been pushing for it though. I'll bring it up again. He goes to the school here 3 times a week. 30 min on Monday and Tuesday and an hour on Thursdays for speech and Occupational Therapist (OT). The probably wont start him in actual school till next year sometimes as it's a small district and the classes are filled up. Nice to meet you and thanks again! [/QUOTE]
