Hi, I'm new here. I have two children. My son Justin is almost 4 and my daughter Alexa is 16 months old. Alexa is the reason I'm here. She has sensory issues that were diagnosed at 9months old. She has oral defensiveness (which is what first alerted us to the fact that something wasn't right). Feeding is a huge issue with her She also has some sensitivity in her hands. She has a feeding specialist, attends OT, and speech therapy. It has been an educational experience this past year to say the least. She also has issues of knowing where her body is in space. We are very lucky that she has received so much intervention early on. It has been very stressful (mostly the feeding issues). We are blessed that she is such a happy child. Looking at her, most people wouldn't guess she had anything unusual going on. I'm just here looking for support and to learn from the experience of others.

Thanks,
Anne
