Guest guest Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 My Daughter who is now almost 6 has a Dyspraxia diagnosis from from neurologist who did'nt know how else to explain it. All MRI, and medabolic tests were normal but she scooted instead of crawled and was late walking (18 mo.)tho sitting up & rolling over normal.Everything was normal until that except the scooting. She even had a few words at 12 mo. then around 15 mo-18mo lost them and only said " ba " and Da.@ 21 mo. was the first time i was told she may have oral apraxia, and her dyspraxia or motor planning was pretty noticable then.even a lil shakey in the trunk.we have been in various therapies and her body awareness and sensory processing is so improved she amazes everyone who knew her before. My questions are can a fever cause this or birth and is global dyspraxia and dyspraxia essentially the same?The school district tried to diagnos mild MR at 5, but luckily her therapists rallied with me and disputed that. Doesnt seem fair when they are so young and how can a standard test accomidate apraxia.Thanks..ps I also Home School our daughter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
