Hi everyone, I'm new to this site and came across it looking for information on spd. My little girl has turned two and is currently going through the communication and social pathway for what was originally suspect autism but they seem to be mentioning spd more and more! I have to be honest and say until now I hadn't really heard of it, and wonders if anyone could give me there thoughts or any advice! My lo failed her 12mth assessment on gross motor skills and communication which was the first time the problems were raised the hv team continued to support us. At 12 months my lo had no verbal skills, wasn't a great sleeper and couldn't chew foods. A year later she will now talk about 25 words but only with us at home and clams up outside our house, she is still a very picky eater decides to eat food on the feel of it in her hands, she drifts off it to her own world anywhere but home and won't interact! She is obsessed by her pushchair and screams if you take her out of it in public, lives routine and doesn't seem to understand instructions, and also loves doing on, off, in , out activities such as shoes on and off which she has done 27 times today?? I have no experience in this and just wondered if this sounded like spd to anyone and help greatly appreciated x
