Hello - I'm all new to this Apraxia stuff :)

[Guest guest]

My name is and I'm a mother of two! a, my 4 year old was recently

diagnosed with apraxia, and , my 2 year old.

It's been real tough, but now it's nice having some answers and knowing, in a

sense what to look forward too. a has no real words. She has a few sounds,

and in the past 6 months, has learned a few letter sounds, but can only say them

after really trying. She mostly speaks in " hoo-hoo's " lol.

I don't know anyone with apraxia, so I just hoped I could find a place and get

support! It would be nice to have other parents to share our struggles and

acheivements with!

a does attend a special-ed pre-k program, and we are working on getting her

in with a speech therapy for additional help.

So, anyways, just wanted to say hi! And I'm really hoping to be able to learn a

lot from this group!

Hi and welcome.  A good place to start finding what we've all done

here over the years is look at the old messages.  Most here started with

Gengs " the late talker " book.  And i'd hazard to guess that almost all here

have at least tried the omega fish oils, so you'll see alot of messages about

EFA's and EPA.    This is a great place to realize that you're not alone, and

a great resource to ask questions. If there's anything specific you'd like to

know, there are a bunch of great ladies (and some gents!)on this site.
