Let me start with an apology, as it has been quite some time since I wrote anything here. We've just been truckin' along, doing the same things. Mainly trying to get things figured out with my daughter. She has been diagnosed ADHD, and we have been seeing a really good specialist regarding the possible Asperger's or pdd-nos. We're very happy so far with how thorough he has been, as well as his commitment to finding all the pieces of this puzzle so we can get some answers, and therefore some help!
So, based on the direction things are heading, I finally ordered a book that has been sitting on my wish list for months. It's called "Aspergirls: Empowering Females with Asperger Syndrome" and I must say that I am already impressed and I'm only on page 14! I have been wanting a book that would talk about the specifics of Asperger's in girls versus boys, because most studies and books are about boys. Considering this is still considered to be a primarily male disorder and there is a definite lack of studies done on females, I'm very excited to learn more about the elusive Aspie girl.

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.
