We had an appt with an OT on Thurs. She has identified a sensory processing thingo. Will get more info when she scores the assessment.

She picked up motor skills from his handwriting but personally I think that's bollocks because no one has taught him how to write, he isn't at school yet. I pointed that out but she said something about how he forms the letters but I still think its bollocks at this age.
Maybe it forms part of a bigger picture.

I was so exhausted from running up and down ladders painting for the last three days that I don't think I took much in tbh Something about him seeking extra information during quiet play and looking around the room alot, talking heaps etc.

Actually I'm still leaning towards the word bollocks. I can't help it. I most certainly agree his brain is wired slightly differently, I've been saying that for years, I can't quite see how those tests brought her to this conclusion. He was his usual chatty, very polite, funny self. No meltdowns, no frustrations shown.

OT wants me to take him to a Paed for formal diagnoses in case he needs help at school. She is going to get him into a group to get him ready for school which we will do, but I'm not sure he really really needs it (will do it for peace of mind). Kinder has been doing a sterling job.
At the 1/2 year parent interview I was told he doesn't call out at the wrong time, contributes well to all discussions, and although he will have a crap day from time to time he certainly "isn't the worst on for it".

I dunno, I can't help feeling cynical that he has been diagnosed with a sensory issue after one hour with an OT. Is that right?
