My 2 year old only child/son diagnosed possibly with autism. His doctor wasn't not 100% sure but the signs are there. I brought him to developmental pedia because my son doesn't looking back when we call him and no eye contact. He was really a TV addict since 7 month-old and he's only child to our house, he has no playmate. Maybe because of his environment and lack of socialization. He was with his nanny most of the time. And my husband and i just see him at night and during weekend because of work.
The doctor suggested OT for 2-3 times a week. My son started his OT for several weeks and he doesn't cooperate. He cried most of the time, keep running after me and we ended up paid for nothing :(
Here's my problem. My husband asked me to resign from work and be a full time mom, we still on denial that he might doesn't have ASD. He suggested to stop him from OT and i will take care of him instead. After 6 months if no changes happen we'll resume to OT. . You know its hard for me to decide, THERAPY ARE COSTLY and we couldn't afford it if i'll resign from work. Please please enlighten me :(
