Brendan was a 6+ times a day too, no more dairy and he's 1-2 times a day now and a thicker consistency too (LOL about discussing poo) Must get a new jar of probiotics too, I just buy the Inner-Health Plus. Is that what you guys use?

OH MY.... ASD meltdowns I can deal with.... I know why they are there and mostly what I can do to help, but Tristan is just grrrrrr.... he starts a tantrum and then sets Brendan off! All day today, Tristan just woke in a bad mood and he's been in Brendan's face and of course he hates that so he's lashing out and then having a meltdown because he has no space. gah...

Have been thinking about making a space in the house where Brendan can go to be alone when he needs to. Like a personal cubby house. Not sure how I'll keep Tristan out though

We did our FaHCSIA funding thing yesterday with the Autism Advisor. Just waiting on the letter. Only problem is just about all the providers are in Perth... only 2 come to here and it's not very regular. Am hoping to be approved for DSC funding as that I can use here with Brendan's current therapists. Also have claimed for Carers Allowance, just need the OT or Speechie to fill it in for me so I can get it back to them. Am hoping in the very least for the HCC, Brendan's antibiotics are getting expensive The most important thing right now will be the help he gets at Kindy though and the support I can access now too.

hoping tomorrow is a better day x
