[QUOTE="massmumma, post: 257972, member: 7092"] She is developing great! She actually hits her milestones before other kids usually do. She is very advanced school wise too. She has a vast vocabulary and uses very large words in the appropriate usages. It is really just her behavior. She uses plenty of eye contact. I am not concerned about that. She can converse very well and she gets along fantastically with other kids. She does seem to always be the leader of the pack. I forgot to mention in my first post but she has developed a nervous tic. We went to all kinds of specialists for this mysterious very pronounced cough she has had for the past 7 months. The doctor came to the conclusion that she has a tic. Her preschool teacher thinks it is a tic also. Over the past few months she has refused to wear anything on her feet except Crocs. Fine in the summer but, we live in Mass. and its just not practical in the winter. Especially when she refuses to wear socks. That is a whole different battle. I have literally bought about 30 different pairs of socks for her trying to find the ones that don't feel "itchy" or she can wiggle her toes in. She also has started chewing on her sleeves and collars. The teacher had to change her at school a couple times because she was soaked. I know some of the behavior goes with her age and probobly because of the new baby but some of it has always been there its just getting worse. I feel like she acts the worst with us. If you met her you would think I was exaggerating her behavior becasue she is so charming and hilarious and cute that is until you spent a few days with us and she got bored with you. I don't know maybe she is spoiled maybe I created this little monster. I always go back in forth. What did I do wrong? What am I not doing or should I be doing? My husband works all the time so I am pretty much a single mom most of the time. When he is home though all he does is play with her and the baby. I play with her too all the time.
