Im with Shell Nelle. Go ask you MCHN a referal for a speechy. I had the same with my boys and it took us 10 months to see one. You may not need it by that time but atleast is you know you tried something.

You could also try asking him what he want and if he whins tell him that if he wants something he has to use his words to its not going to happen, then ignore him until he talks to you. I know it sounds horrible (and you'll feel horrible) but it might just work. its hard i know but your doing a great job babe....he's using sign langague and that just shows he's understanding you.

Shell - you wer ein my thoughts this morning after your 10am something post. I rang and demanded a home visit and got one . she was here at 11.30 and checked me out. She wanted to close the door for privacy and im like WTF um NO....Vy has seen it and we hide nothing form our kids. Vy sat there rubbing my leg saying..its ok mummy all better soon... nurse left me with more gawes and said that there is no infecitn and that its very clean. She also said taht my cyst must have been extremely big to have had a tube outo f it. Sh esiad something about maybe having to come here every day after its out to pack out the wound...yay lucky me lol.
