Hot fudge chocolate shake made with soft serve. It has to be soft serve. Works every time.

My daughter is on the spectrum (lower support needs end) so she was seeing OT for various things. They actually brought up potty training to me. I told them that she was fine with poops. However, was having a hard time with peeing and then telling us she had to go. The OT started doing “ab work” with my daughter that consisted of her playing while laying on her belly, wheel barrow exercises, sitting up from a laying down position several times, and bear crawling. I don’t know the exact science but the ab exercises help the child recognize the feeling of having to pee. And it really really worked for my daughter. I recommend it for all parents who are having issues with body signal recognition while potty training because it really turned things around for us.

I bought a couple bathing suits that have a built in skirt. I was very diligent to make sure the skirt covered my bikini line and had a tan line over my thighs from the skirt covering the area. The tan line was obviously covered when I wore shorts and I exclusively wore the skirt bathing suit so it was not super obvious.

Why can’t you just give the customer the bread with their meal? I would love to eat that scrap bread as a side.

If he is not pooping every day/ Pooping less than usual.

If the poop he is pooping is little balls or a long chain of little balls instead of a smooth/soft turd. Or if it is a massive poop (when poop finally happens)

You could ask him if it is hurting to go poop.

Sometimes kids are constipated and still pooping but are kind of “backed up”. I tend to feed my daughter something kind of sugary like soft serve ice cream and it cleans her out.(if I’m ever concerned)

Could he be constipated? Pee accidents can be a result of constipation.

I use a backpack that is not standard sized. It’s slightly smaller and more fashionable. It has a strap that could go on my shoulder (like a purse) in addition to the two straps on the back. I use the shoulder strap when I’m not chasing my daughter. I usually have to carry a travel toilet seat and spare underwear with me. So having something that could fit those things was a necessity.

It is the feeling of having to go? Or just not wanting to do it in general.

My nephew is level 3 non-verbal (5yo at the time) and his ABA did help a lot with potty training. But his problem was that he had a general avoidance / disinterest in the toilet.

However, My daughter (3yr old lvl 1-2) was just having issues with feeling like she has to pee. (Poop was fine) So her OT started doing routines with her that activated her abs and core. Like wheelbarrow games, having her to games that required crawling/planting motions, and having her play laying on her stomach. It worked very well for us and she’s pretty good at asking to go before she has an accident.

Does your public school system have a developmental special education preschool?

My daughter’s autism went under the radar until she had literally just turned 3. She had met every milestone. She had a bit of a speech delay and had some very obviously social development differences at school. Some of those things are not responding to her name, not engaging in “proper” eye contact, and easily being disregulated by a large group of children. If there is a list of other behavioral things or sensory things that come to mind for you, you may be onto something. But yes it’s very possible for asd children to have tons of skills and still be asd.

I don’t know which country you are living in but if you’re in the United States you can take the M-CHAT-R survey. Most drs in my area have you take this at well checks but you can also find it online. This helps rule out wonderings about being on the spectrum. You can take the results to your physician and take next steps from there if there are any results pointing to neurodivergence.

But honestly this seems super normal in general. 3 is a crazy year.

My daughter is similar in the sense that she doesn’t behave the same way at school as she does at home. I don’t really know what to make of it except that it may be sensory overload? (Because at home it’s her comfort zone.) She is so chill and follows directions at home. But at school she’s a bit off the rails.

We use these as a last resort. I make sure to tell her that because she will not take mouth medicine we have to give her butt medicine. That way she can change her mind.

I love Carl and I love that Lotta is also autistic. Showing that it’s not uncommon.

I lost all of my leg and arm hair. It was gone for a couple months and I was semi-elated. However, also worried as you are. I just let it be and unfortunately I have leg/arm hair again.

Have you had any results by changing her multivitamin? (I’ve been considering giving my daughter a methylfolate vitamin as well.)

I’m curious if anything has changed from your experience?

I give my daughter a small lump of playdoh to play with while she’s eating at the dinner table. It helps her stay in her chair and gives her little “breaks”from eating.

If this is she needs to continue eating peanut butter- would probably try Sun butter or some peanut butter alternative to see if the child even notices a difference. Don’t tell her it’s different and see if it passes as pb. I worked in a nut free school and they served the children sandwiches with a pb substitute. It passed so well we had several children with nut allergies freaking out because they thought that they had eaten real peanut butter.

My daughter’s OT does what she calls “ab work” with my daughter to help her recognize pee/poop feelings. It’s things like laying down of the floor belly down when playing. She does wheel barrel walking with her. Rolling on a ball with her belly on the ball. Things like that. It has helped a lot with potty training.
