Well our appointment went really well. I highly recommend skillbuilders to everyone, they have such a great range. If you can get in there, even better! We sat down and looked through all the different things and tried to try a few things on. In the end we decided that DS1 would probably take better to them in his own environment so we ordered them anyway.
On order we have...
a weighted vest, a weighted blanket, a weighted neck wrap, a scooter board, a weighted lap bag and a ball (can't think of the name, but it has little handles and you bounce around on it)
We bought home with us...
a body sox, a bilibo, a weighted belt, a vibrating mouth toy, a cushion for sitting at the table and a box of fidget toys.
I can't wait to get all the weighted things! He's been wearing the weighted belt most of the morning (on and off) and it's amazing! he body sox is just awesome too. He used the vibrating mouth toy last night and slept for about 7 hours!!!!! WOOHOOO.
DS1's OT diagnosed the SPD, the only 'sense' that is working correctly is his visual sense, which is kinda funny because he has a (very) small issue with his sight (just being monitored atm, can't remember if he's long or short sighted lol - I know bad that I can't remember, but it's really not important atm I'll let the ophthalmologist worry about it)
Mama Spice, DS1 has dilated pupils too, I thought it was just him lol.
Meow, good to hear from you, I hope things settle in well for you. DS1 hates baths and haircuts too So no advice there.
