hello! I'm sibby mother of 2 daughters aged 5 and 2.
My oldest started school last September. And since then the school for me to get her refered. She saw the peadatrian in march and he referred her for the asd clinic assesment. Which he said was 12 months wait but found out recently it's 18 months!
She struggles socially so at school she struggles with the other children.
