Our psychologist thinks my daughter may have Sensory Processing Disorder. She certainly does fit the bill for it in many ways. We're waiting on a referral to Occupational Therapy for a thorough evaluation.
He met with her today for the first time. I have met with him alone once and with my husband two additional times before now. Based on everything we have told him, and his meeting with her today, he does think there is something deeper to this than just her being stubborn about things. He will meet with her again next week. For now he will not give me any idea what he thinks it could be, because he says he would still be guessing at this point. Honestly, I'd kind of like him to guess so I can at least know what he is thinking!
I hate waiting, but apparently that is what we must do. In the meantime, we need to work on having more patience with the, uh, idiosyncrasies, because she truly may not be able to help herself.

I am the mother of two beautiful miracle children. This used to be my infertility blog, but as we are no longer trying to conceive, this will now be the place I come to talk about the issues in my life - the main ones revolving around my children. My daughter has diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, Sensory Processing Disorder, ADHD, Anxiety and Mood Disorder-NOS. My son was also recently diagnosed with ADHD and Asperger's. Comments are welcome, but I do ask that you be respectful when you do.
