Coltons Regression

[Guest guest]

So Colton will be 23 months old on the 30th. And still does not say one word. Over the past couple of months Colton has learned how to say I love you Which he said " I you." He did that for maybe 2 months and hasn't done it since. About 2 weeks ago he learned to say "Cookie" He said that maybe 3 times and stopped completely. Then about a week ago my older children were showing him how to cont to 3. would say one... And Colton would Say " two, three." He did that maybe 3 or 4 times and stopped completely again. He is now starting to struggle with going in public places. Stores, parks, ect. Sometimes even just getting in the car is to much for him. He screams at the top of his lungs and thrashes violently. Hurting himself and people around him. Mean while everyone in the store is staring at me like I should do

something about my kid. He also learned to wave bye-bye , He did that maybe twice and hasn't done it since. Still doesn't point to anything or even attempt to show you what he wants. I took him to the dr. for his shots that he was late on getting and the dr. asked me if he was doing any better and I Said "no, In fact he is getting worse." And went on to explain his regression. She then had the nerve to look at me an say well maybe he's just weird and quirky. I could feel my blood pressure rise instantly. I was LIVID!!! I said "Quirky! You don't think there is anything wrong with him?" She Said " No, Because he can look me in the eye and smile at me." And I left. When I got home I called medicaid and enrolled him into Childrens Medical Services Network. And Switched his Dr. Colton was accepted into A school for the disabled not far from where we live. The only problem now is that he

can't go because they don't go door to door. They have drop off locations and none that I can walk to with 4 children. I have no car and no license. So that opportunity just flew out the window. I'm so aggravated. And his temper is so bad and he usually takes it out on my 5 month old. A few weeks ago he picked up his quite large purple helicopter that sings and threw it at the baby hitting him in the head with it, because he was mad about me telling him "no". He is also starting to become very resistant to change. Diaper changes, changes in activities or toys or routine, food. If my mom comes over on the wrong day that she normally comes he acts like he doesn't even know her. Thanks for letting me vent. I just feel so lost. And at times I feel like he is lost. I just want my sweet baby back the way he was when he was younger and didn't have as many issues.
