OT: Our new baby!

[sarahandrew]

We have been using the little postcard sized art pictures for years now...but finally I was able to get the posters shipped internationally with my last order (so exciting!). I splurged on one of these frames https://www.brilliantframes.com.au that open at the front and then I just secure the poster...

Hi Colomama, have you considered an elimination diet before you jump in? There is a Centre of Excellence hospital in Sydney, where I live, that has a Food Allergy and Intolerance unit. We have started their elimination diet. There’s a related website https://www.fedup.com.au and a USA Facebook page....

Thanks Ladies ...

Hi Ladies,

I wanted to share our happy news...our baby Caleb Rhys was born on Wednesday. I have been so blessed by a safe, calm birth (after feeling so anxious about it)...and a very contented, beautiful boy.

Sarah ...

Praying for Michelle and for you too Cheryl....

Hi Dianne,

Others who will have better advice and have more experience than me will no doubt answer your question with better and more specific advice...but I wanted to reply here because I am also from Australia! Where do you live? We are in Sydney. I know 2 other mums using MP here too....

I don't feel quite qualified to list this book as we have only been 'using' it for maybe 9 months but it has been SO helpful to our family. It is 'A House United: Teaching Self-Government' by Nicholeen Peck (and thankyou to the mum who mentioned it on the SC Facebook page). It has so many of the elements...

[sarahandrew]

Thankyou Ladies! You’ve all given me a lot to think about and consider!...

Hi Cheryl,

Apologies for how terribly rude I have been to take so long to reply to your thoughtful comments.

My husband came to me a few days after I posted and said he’d been thinking about Miriam and her results and his own childhood diagnoses (dyslexia/dysgraphia/dyscalculia)...

Its the end of the school year for us here in Australia, so I got my daughter to sit the CAT (as I did last year). She has had mood issues but is currently her normal self and is sleeping better on melatonin. I felt like she was in a good place for the test and that it accurately highlighted her strengths...

[sarahandrew]

Haha that’s awesome!

Hi Grace,

Our boys have a lot in common! High functioning ASD, ADHD, anxiety, big stressors, trouble getting to sleep because of anxiety. Even the fears you mentioned...my son’s biggest fears are robbers and ghosts.

We have tried everything we and OT and psychologist could...
