my daughter who is 2 years 9 months and ASD has getting more sensory than before. She doesn’t call me mama and I don’t think she know I am mama. Anyone has similar experience? Thanks
My daughter is very sensory too. How about your son?
Hi, our son at a similar age ASD never really talked a lot just pointed occasionally always looked in deep thought.
Our son at that age ASD hardly talked unless you talked to him always content and happy in his own world. It was so difficult at the time I am an only child his dad also ASD so never thought 1990s any thing about it . I just presumed he was quiet like his dad. Looking back now his sister at the same age was a full on chatter box always asking questions. Frequently saying mummy and daddy. Now I get big hugs in fact he always communicated in hugs a very loving child. She most likely will know but the skill to communicated verbally not developed.
Thanks! She is verbal but very few words and sometime she rather not to talk, by just holding my hands.
Not personally, I know other parents have described an Increase in sensory seeking behaviour at that age. Is your daughter at all verbal? I saw you mentioned in another post that she has been assessed and presumably is receiving speech and language therapy? (possibly might be a bit young I'm not sure sorry) if so speak to them they might have a clearer insight of your daughters understanding
Sorry couldn't be more help wishing you the best
