I don't know my baby anymore

mrsssavageangel

We've just been told that whilst we don't have a diagnosis yet, we are in that "ball park" by the paediatrican at RSCH. 

And now I don't feel like I know my son anymore.

He's 2.5 and this week I've just felt like I can't take him out to any of the places we used to go. I don't feel like I can play with him, without bursting int to tears and as such he's happily playing on his own.

Does this pass?

Can I ask other parents of ASD toddlers if and how they integrate? We live in a small town in rural surrey so there are no specialist facilities close by. Do I just keep him at home?

I'm so sad. Sorry

  • My son has a Thomas too! and a Percy. They go everywhere with us! I think I'm going to get some photos of our favourite haunts (inc the house) as he's definately happier if he knows whats going to happen. I don't know that we have an Advice Centre locally, but I will ask about it (although who I ask I will have to work out!) Thank you so much for your support. I really appreciate it. It's such a frightening time, but the more I talk about it the easier it seems somehow so thank you again xx
