Autism momma 💙
What age did your child learn the alphabet, numbers up to 100? My son knows a lot of information for 4 yrs old. Last night I quizzed him on numbers 1-100 and he pointed to everyone I asked. He’s non verbal so all he can do is point.
He’s been doing more English lately kinda graduating from jargon. He also knows all the shapes too!
He also has an aac device and if I asked him about anything he would show me.
He’s kinda young but I’m literally thinking about introducing math soon. Basic addition.
We do ABA and he’s past matching and all that, he’s working on tracing.
he’s my little smarty pants lol

3 for my little
My nephew learned it quick. Ask your therapist if he could be HYPER-Lexic.
It’s where numberS, letters and patterns are easier to recognize.
Early . She's non verbal and 4. At 2 years old one day in the tub she randomly sang her ABCs and counted to 20, I thought she just memorized it but I tested it and she can say letters out of order and numbers too. Now she can count to 30, then by 100s up to 1000 and count backwards 20 down to 0. She also sings a lot of songs but won't use any word to communicate lol
4 she’s 6 now. But also extremely verbal.

Sleeping bags
I’m a FTM looking for some advice please.
I’ve just started putting my 9 week old in her sleeping bag at night the temperature when we go to bed is around 20/21 degrees I have been putting her in a 1 tog sleeping bag with her sleepsuit per the guide on the sleep bag. The temperature is dropping to about 16/17 degrees throughout the night making it colder.
Would you continue to put her in the 1 tog or would you put her in a warmer tog when she’s going to bed knowing the temperature is going to drop? I am worried about overheating her. TIA xx

Did anyone else not really love breastfeeding?
I breastfed for 18 months and it was more because I knew it was good for baby and then when we got into it, it was for convenience and ease. But I also felt that it took things away like baby being able to spend long periods of time with family (he wouldn’t take a bottle), and also I had a lack of freedom lol.
I’d do it again and don’t regret it but I never got the “I love breastfeeding, I love the closeness, it’s magical” kinda feeling that I read people talking about.

18 month old still has witching hour?
Help?!!!! My 18 month old from the day he was born has been absolute hell past 4pm. No matter how much sleep he has he whinges and cries at EVERY thing, all evening. My partner is really stressed out with it, as we thought by now he might have grown out of it. He’s sleeps 7:30pm- 6am, and 11:30-1:30 day nap. Eats WELL, that is what he actually mostly whinges at now… Always screaming at the kitchen cupboards. I don’t know what to do😩 is this happening to anyone else

Period & milk supply
Did anyone find that when they got their period their milk supply got less? Think my first period is starting and noticed I'm finding I'm pumping less and less milk at the moment and wonder if they're connected.
