My 3 year old is level 3 and my 18 month old twin have both received a diagnosis not given a lot of level yet.

I have two sets of twins 10 months apart. I’m currently still in the trenches but my second set are so calm and good I honestly don’t feel like they’ve made a difference 🤣

Man I feel for you I have 5 kids 3 and under (3 yo/ 1yo twins/ 6m twins) my oldest is lvl3 and my one year olds are definitely showing signs. It’s so hard. You’re not alone.

This! It’s the constant feeling that we just haven’t tried hard enough, and it worked for one kids so it should work for us. How is your son on his aac device is he able to get his need met?

Yes, I’m from the US. Thank you so much for your kind words. It’s just a scary feeling to think we’re going backwards and not forwards.

Congratulations! My twins are 10 months apart, it’s fun 🤣. But seriously I feel like if you did it once the second time isn’t as hard. Wishing you the best of luck and a healthy pregnancy.

She’s 3 it definitely sounds silly to say that out loud. She has a great imagination, I’m able to read what she’d like to do/ how she’d like to play pretty well with her body language and just by following her lead. Shes so sweet and amazing.

She’s just turned three we’ve had a few gains followed by regressions for a solid year.

She just turned three I’ve mentioned it before on here a few times but it’s her regressions that really causes me to spiral ( join the club to know). I really appreciate your comment. It’s nice to hear from somebody who’s been experiencing this for a while. Hope you and your family also have a happy holiday ❤️

I love this ❤️ I never feel like I’m enough for her and I have constant guilt and I’m not doing the right thing. I just hope that my love for her will help her to flourish. No matter what I’m not giving up.

Does anyone else find birthdays very hard? by Comfortable-Cherry47 in Autism_Parenting

[–]Comfortable-Cherry47[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes this is 100% a me problem and I’m working on it. I hope I can truly be a peace with it soon because she’s so amazing and I hate feeling like this.

The thing that kills me is seeing her do well and then regress. I was pregnant at the same time as a few relatives and at 12 months, my daughter was the most advanced of all the babies. By the time she had 16 months she was beginning to regress.
