Our pediatrician's visit went AMAZING last night. We were there FOREVER, though.
We chatted about vaccines and the doctor didn't even blink an eye at us decided to VERY selectively vaccinate. As in, deny almost all of them. I did allow ONE for Liam -- the PCV. But other than that, we got no others.
We also chatted about nutrition and diet, and decided to eliminate dairy from Liam's diet for 4-6 weeks to see if the rash goes away. So, we picked up some almond milk, but unfortunately, WIC doesn't see almond milk as an option, and I REFUSE to do soy, so we will supplement with Lactaid, too. ><
We discussed supplements a little, she recommended fish or flax oil... so i'm looking into that and a probiotic supplement, too.
And of course, we talked about Joshua and what our next steps will be. We need to find a place in our area that will take us on and do all the autism testing, therapies, etc. So they're looking into that for us. And I told her we're looking for a naturopath, too, and she's really supportive of that.
All in all a great visit, i'm really happy with how it went.
Now, our therapy/ADOS testing is in about an hour, so I need to go get dressed, get the kids dressed, and straighten up the house REALQUICK.
