ShaggysBeard Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 (edited) Youngest son (4) diagnosed with ASD today, as am I. Been a long process and a relief to be able to look into further support for him in preparation for school.

Must admit I wasnt laughing about that one Tell her mummies are ten a penny and can be replaced. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Congratulations! I always said 2 was the limit, don't rule it out [emoji12] Congratulations! Two is definitely enough. I'd have been happy with one. We basically decided if it didn't happen this year then we'd call it a day. I'm delighted we are having another but I expect I'll go for the op after this one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBo10 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 12 week scan today. Second and final kid due early January. Poor wee fecker, shite time for a birthday. My son was born on Hogmanay. Only Christmas Day would have been worse for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBo10 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 When the consultant told us my wife had to have her section the conversation went something like this. “Given your complications we need to do the section on Thursday. “ “That’s Hogmanay” said me. “Yes Mr Haggerty. Is that an issue for you?” “Well if you could hold off till Friday that would be better.” “Why would Friday be better?” “Well we’re having a boy so if he’s born on Thursday he’s a 2015. If he’s born on Friday he’s a 2016. It makes a literal year of a difference when it comes to his boys club football. “ “Mr Haggerty are you sure you’re taking this seriously?” No sense of humour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's it been like since? It was when I was researching about ASD when we suspected my son had it and a few things I read just ran true. It took me a while to decide whether I wanted to know or not. I got diagnosed last September. It's been okay, understanding why I think differently from most people is there now but nothing has really changed. I'm hoping it makes raising my son easier. Hopefully an autistic child being raised by an autistic parent is easier on the child than two neurotypical parents. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Chickenpox on a 2 year old is a great laugh, aint it? My two breezed it surprisingly (sorry) but the porridge bath seems to be all round the best advice. I seen a difference in my oldest with that when it looked like it might start bothering her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also head and shoulders original in the bath soothes the spotsYeah both these things seem to be helping. She loves the bath at the best of times so it's win win on that front. My two breezed it surprisingly (sorry) but the porridge bath seems to be all round the best advice. I seen a difference in my oldest with that when it looked like it might start bothering her.Tbf she hasn't been too bad. She clearly isn't herself and is visibly run down. I can't say I've noticed her itching much either. The trouble seems to be that some of the heads are coming off now and it's obviously hurting her; especially when we lather her with the calamine. She has been crying a wee bit but the trouble is we've been ruined with her up until now and she very rarely cries, so if she cries for more than a minute it's a shock to our system [emoji38] 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest Saints Fan Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Our 2 breezed through chicken pox too. Porridge baths and diprobase cream were definitely the best remedies for us. Poor Fraser got some dose though he was completely covered! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor Fraser got some dose though he was completely covered! Fucking hell. I say mine breezed it but they didnt get it anywhere near as bad as that. Must have been a mild dose through our house! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Callan had chickenpox last month, he was a bit grouchy for a few days. We found the porridge oats in the bath really helped. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor Fraser got some dose though he was completely covered! OYF! Aila's back, stomach and scalp is covered but her face is not even close to as bad as that. I suppose the only 'good' thing about him getting them so young is that you could protect him from scratching with the mitts? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
