Autistic behaviors - son stimming
 |
||
Noah a year or two ago in his room, "stimming" or coming down from sensory overload. He used to make a lot of this sound.....for a long time.....it was like a meditative "om" to him. He would also repeatedly move objects close to the corners of his eyes and move it slow and deliberately back and forth over and over again. I called this "scoping". This is a sampling of that behavior.

Noah also walked in circles.....not really anymore...but he used to pace the room like a caged animal especially before bedtime.....over and over he would go....handflapping was occasional when excited. It took me a very long time to get a doc to listen and then even longer to get in and be evaluated because of the backlog! Most appointments for formal evaluation are anywhere from 5-6 months to 1 year after referral!!! So my suggestion is to never waste time! ;)

My son does this very same thing along with handflapping, walking in circles, well you know. He hasn't been diagnosed yet but we have an appointment set up. It took 6 months for us to find someone to look at him. Was this the case for you?

Well I remember being in denial about Noah....and thinking the worst. It is indeed a process and has several steps that I think everyone who is a parent of a newly diagnosed autistic child goes through. A word of advice.....try to look past the devastation and shock and never give up hope. Our kids are different but still very very capable and can learn and progress with a little extra input on our end. I wish you and your wife the best with your son! ;)

You are indeed blessed! My son Kevin, is approx 20 months old now, and he is showing the symptoms; this is a devastating time for my wife, and I. He is now being scheduled to take the chat test, as well as additional screening. I pray, and hope that he will receive the help he needs!

Noah was homeschooled from Kindergarten until third grade when he wanted to try public school again. He did very well and successfully completed the grade and he will be starting fourth grade this fall. I am nervous about that as he will no longer have a parapro for just himself....but will share one within the classroom.

Noah was only about 4-5 or so.....I allowed him time to do this because he needed it to remain calm and functional. It did not bother me......and it is not something he does at all anymore.....or very very rarely and nothing to this degree. Thanks for the visit and comment!
