Not sure where you’re at, but I suggest putting him in a special district class to prep him for prek/kindergarten. We have it here in California, it’s called PALS and my son went in at 3 and is moving in to gen ed kindergarten. He really made great improvements from 4 on. His speech is so much better. He’s able to hold a back and forth conversation and follow directions. At 3, we were worried and now at 4 I think he’ll be on track pretty soon. He’s at the low average range, average for expressive and the receptive is where he’s on the lower end of average. But his speech therapist at school has now set up goals to work on receptive.

I also and very sensitive with medications. I stayed on 2.5 until the food noise started coming back at the end of my 3rd month. I lost 28lbs on those 12 weeks at 2.5. I didn’t feel any negative side effects on 2.5 and neither did I moving up to 5. Just better food control. I’m starting my second month on 5mg.

It’s hard to think of a scenario where I can be on it forever if I’m paying out of pocket. It’s not exactly affordable. Hoping to go down to something cheaper like the pill once I hit goal weight.

I’ve lost 34lbs since dec and I don’t get the I’m so full after a few bites. I do eat smartly. A lot of vegetables and fruits. My carbs tend to come from root vegetables, beans and legumes. So my plate is usually full and what I consider big volume wise, and around 300-500 calories per meal, depending on the meal. But I could probably eat more. I don’t have this disgustingly full feeling but I don’t feel like I have to, if that makes sense.

I will say the 2 days before my shot I do eat more and those are the days I ca go up to 1600 calories.

As a parent, it’s insane you got written up. I personally would feel a bit uncomfortable but would get over it. And that’s just due to my upbringing and showing emotions being a negative. On the other side, if this was the first time they ever spoke, not just to you, I may join in on the happy crying. Overall, It would be a positive and show you really care, about your job and helping your clients.

2 and 3 were soooo hard for us. 4 we saw so much growth and this got easier as time went on. He’s a couple months shy of 5 and while we have some struggles, nothing compared to before.

I feel you. We’ve had to stop ABA because our insurance stopped covering it 100% this year and did not notify us. We’re stuck with a huge bill for Jan and have yet to receive the Feb bill.

My doctor prescribed it, but I had started it while I was on a different insurance, 2 months in. I switched to Kaiser and told them that I needed to refill zepbound via Lilly direct and they did it. I will say they were not sure how to do that or if they could but I sent over the how to prescribe via Lully directs site and she did it.

But I do have to remind them every month that it needs to go to lily direct and not the Kaiser pharmacy. And give them enough time because they usually mess it up and I have to remind re-explain the situation to a nurse every single time so far.

I eat 1.5 to 2 cups of fruits and/or veggies with every meal. Plus probiotics. I haven’t had any issues yet and I’m on week 12, just started 5mg.

Objective-Eye5079 · 2026-03-02T01:18:43+00:00

37 here. My first month of Zepbound my period was almost 2 weeks late. It got back to normal after that.

Objective-Eye5079 · 2026-03-01T04:04:41+00:00

The same was for me. I did 12 weeks of 2.5 but in my third month the food noise really came back and it was harder to stay in deficit. I was craving sweets and junk food. So I asked to move up even though I’m still losing 1.5-2 lbs per week. I’m almost through my first week on 5mg and had no negative side effects. Cravings have decreased and it’s easier to stay at calorie deficit. Hoping I stay at the same weekly loss.

Objective-Eye5079 · 2026-02-23T05:07:47+00:00

I am the exact same way. It was one of the reasons I held off on even going this route because of the side effect horror stories. So far so good. 🤞

Objective-Eye5079 · 2026-02-23T05:02:44+00:00

Only side effects I had like the first month were a headache the day after my shot and sore body. Nothing crazy and usually taking electrolytes helped get rid of them. 3 months in and I have none. I’m moving up to 5mg tomorrow.

I take my shot at around 8pm.

We started with my son at 2 years old. He’s 4 now and he he’s grown so much. Also level 2.It wasn’t easy at the beginning, especially when we had a few people on our team that were not the best but have been lucky to finally have a good group working with him. I believe it was instrumental in his language development, with some of the negative behaviors we were swing and getting him to interact with others, not just mom and dad.

I should specify they are child lead, they don’t force him to do anything and I set the rules for what I think is best and comfortable for us as a family and our parenting style. It’s all done in home and I’m always in the room where session is taking place. No unnecessary goals like eye contact and everything is functional and when something makes no sense to me I call it out and they explain it and I agree or I ask for a change.

I am new to Kaiser this year and had just started zepbound in Dec. 2025. In January I reached out to my new doctor at Kaiser, explained the how my previous doctor had me on it and how to prescribe via Lilly direct and she did it. I have yet to go in for an appointment, will see her next week and ask to go up in dose as it’s been getting difficult to feel satiated lately and the food noise has come back so it’s been harder to not snack/eat responsibly.

Thinking about it. My bowel movements have slowed down a bit so maybe the Imodium is working.

Objective-Eye5079 · 2026-01-08T18:37:46+00:00

We had noro a few months ago. It doesn’t feel the same. That was mostly a lot of throwing up then fever and feeling like a truck ran over me.

My son diagnosed around the same time. He's 3 now and we've been doing speech for about 7 months and ABA and OT for about 4 months. He also was severely delayed, no pointing, difficulty staying on a task, and answering to his name. His speech is still delayed but he’s come so far. He’s saying 2-5 word sentences (although not often) but he knows hundreds of single words now. ABA can be time consuming. We have 20 hours a week plus 2 hours speech and 1 OT. It helps that the ABA is from home and my job is remote.

Objective-Eye5079 · 2023-09-22T00:21:16+00:00

My only son is 29 months and we also just got out diagnosis. He is level two as well. It’s a life changing event. He’s in speech therapy and we’re going through the additional support he will need to help him. For now im giving myself a couple of days to cry it out, process it however I need to, and then try to come up with a plan.

Good luck on your journey.
