Hey ladies,
First it's great to read all the story you share here's.
I was very touched by some of yours.
I am not sure if I fit this thread but my twins are neuro atypic (but discover the word neurospicy here's and I love it so much!!!).
They are 36 weeks preemies, it's not big but for some reasons they stayed in neonatology for 1 month and had lots of problem to eat and take weight.
My daughter had a IUGR at birth and my son had a severe axial hypotonia.
My son had tons of exams but no cause was found.
With growing up, he was suspected for autism but never diagnosed with autism. He still had lots of exams but we never find something really probative.
In the end, we finally discover he had multi Dys trouble: Dyspraxia, Dyscalculia, Dyslexia and Dysgraphia. It explains a lot of things but not all.
Her twin sister has Dyslexia, Dysorthographia, Dyscalculia and probably dyspraxia but not as much as her brother.
I can't say it's a big deal everyday for us but it is as soon as we talk about school because it's very difficult for them.
I also feel embarrased by the others. I often have question why they don't ride bike, need scratch shoes, help for things that seems easy, etc...
I don't want to "label" them too much so I don't answer too much. It's great to write it here all because I don't do it in real life except with specialist or school.
I'm super proud of every little milestone they do but can't explain to other people!lol!
Well nothing too bad for us but it's good to talk about it.
