Nursery say my child may be autistic
Show your support
@Charlotte she bites another kids, she,likes to play alone, and even forget anorther ones because of my tears
Go and speak to GP they should be able to do a referral to get her tested there's probably a long wait so best to do it sooner rather than later so if she is can get the right support for her in schools ect, she may not be autistic but if she is its good they picked it up early as autism in girls is very often missed
I don’t feel they can really make that assumption after two days. It takes a while for children to settle in. If she’s never been in situations where she has to interact with children it can be a hard to adjust to. Maybe take her to the GP for peace of mind? See what they say? It’s just harsh to make that assumption to you after two days.
@Charlotte yes its just 2days,i dont know im just in the tears all evening
Don’t stress hun. Let her settle in. You know her best. If she’s settled and they still have concerns or you do you’ve still given her chance to settle. ❤️ You get told so much mixed information. Every single thing the outcome appears to be autism or ADHD at the minute without understanding the child xx
2 days and they are saying that?! Sounds like they are inexperienced in handling new joiners tbh!
@Francesca i knoww but i dont know what to say it
Have you noticed any signs? My oldest has autism and he's the greatest so try not to stress too much. I was the first to notice in my son and everyone kept telling how all kids develop differently and how they all knew someone's kid who did something similar.. but I knew, 2 days doesn't seem long enough to tell if you haven't noticed anything but you don't lose anything by speaking to your GP or health viy
Ask - What makes them think that? Do they have any experience in diagnosing this? What is their management plan for children with this?
What reasoning have they given?
