Since I just spilled my guts in the parents forum, i figured the least i could do was come say a proper hello over here.

Hi, I'm carmen. My daughter Marley is 4 and was diagnosed with SPD back in april. Recently, the possibility of AS has been mentioned and so i've torn myself away from reading the forums just long enough to post here. For every thing that she does that makes me feel like we definitely need to look into asperger's, I'll conversely have a moment of completely doubting myself. I'm hoping that regardless, i make the best decisions I can for her and learn enough about how she operates to parent her effectively.

Hi Carmen.
We originally thought my son's diagnosis was SPD as well. He was diagnosed SPD at 7 and AS at 9.
Hopefully, you will get a solid diagnosis for your daughter so you don't have to deal with the doubt.....as if that ever goes away for a parent.
