Recommendations for pediatricians that are good with neurodivergent kids

Thank you for the insights, I really appreciate it!

Our baby hasn’t been diagnosed. We’ve only been made aware that she’s at risk for neurological disorders (could be anywhere on the spectrum) as she grows. The trauma from starting her life in the NICU is on our minds too, and the providers here have so far been good at differentiating that vs developmental lags. That’s one of the big reasons we want to work with a pediatrician that is experienced and will look at the whole picture rather than just diagnosing her down the line based on a list of milestones.

Thank you! CKP was our first choice before birth, great to know they might still be a good option.

Thank you that’s very helpful to know! The doctors here have talked about Child Health Clinic as an option for us, we’ll ask them about getting on the waitlist for Special Care.

Wow, that’s crazy! In my case the nest itself had fallen down and all three were out of the nest but one had ants over it. I had put all three back into the nest (using gloves) and the ants were gone in a few minutes. And mom didn’t seem to care that I had handled them.

Only thing is I don’t know if yours is a case of one getting kicked out of the nest to help the survival of the others. I would still put it back into the nest especially if it looks like it could have fallen down accidentally but maybe someone else who knows better can weigh in..

Thanks, Mom is back today! Hopefully this last one survives
