some websites that are helpful for blind babies(mine is 14 months) are seedlings.com and braillebug.com you can get free stuff and link to other websites. Also baby signlanguage will help when learning language sounds crazy but she'll be able to communicate with you.

Hi everyone. I wanted to introduce my situation right now. My DS, 6, is very ADHD. However, in being dx by a dr myself as being bipolar, I have been on guard for it in my son. His psych said there are a couple of things that lead her to see it in him, however, she is reluctant to dx him with bipolar yet. So she put him on ADHD medicine, Concerta. Which is enhancing the irritation levels. I don't have the self harm, thank goodness. Right now we are just starting to deal with the mood levels. My problem is when looking at what he does on an individual basis, it seems like normal boy/brother behavior. Which is what delayed him getting seen by a dr in the first place. But I know that it isn't normal for him. I orginally thought he had a sensory issue. Which would explain parts of the bipolar. I am currently reading a bood for childhood bipolar and a book for my own bipolar. I want to help him get through his childhood and learn how to handle it.

My DD has cortical vision impairment due to brain damage. It's hard because we know she can see *some*, but it's anybody's guess as to how well, or what she can see. At 15 months, she still can't track a toy, but she will turn to look at the TV. Who knows? She also has a seizure disorder.

Welcome!

Hi everyone

I'm fairly new to this section of MDC. My 20 month old son was diagnosed 2 weeks ago with type 1 diabetes. His sugars are still all over the place, but so far, he doesn't mind the finger sticks or the shots. I'm hoping there are some other parents around here who've been through this and can help me out!

Hi Everyone - My sweet son Damien, 25 months, has not received any formal diagnosis (beyond general developmental delay), but SPD and expressive language delays. He's also had social delays (a lot overcome due to floortiming!) and feeding issues - refused everything but nursing until 21 months! He's been in EI for over a year now.

Hi! I'm new here. My 4 year old is on the autistic spectrum and has adhd. My 3 year old we haven't gotten a diagnosis on yet, but it's suspected that he's on the autistic spectrum and possible adhd as well. My 8 month old was a preemie and has reflux and all 3 kids have asthma. I've also been having some suspicions about my 8 month old and if she's possibly on the spectrum as well. I guess time will tell. I definitely have my hands full.
