Wow - I just read this whole thread and I could see my dd in so many of your posts. She was Drug exposed, she came to us at 8 mnths old eating no solids, having to be swaddled to sleep (yes at 8 mnths), had to be swaddled to take a bottle. Her transition to our home was difficult to say the least, honestly their were days I didn't know if I would make it. She didn't eat, she didn't sleep, she screamed if anyone would come to our house or we went to anyone elses house, she panics in any crowds. We are in the process of getting a private OT and a neuro physc evaluation. She is now 3 and in some ways doing better but in other ways the gap is getting wider. She's very verbal and developmentally completely on target. I need to read "the out of sync child" I just ordered into my local library. She is a sweet kid but I need to figure out how to help her.
Keep the advice coming...
