noticed you in pregnant, and you are neat. we both live in al and have birthdays in july and are in tuff but serious & longterm relationships. mind if i add you?
Hi, I saw your post in breastfeeding and I saw the comments, I just want to say that you should be applauded for breastfeeding for 17 months. Most people can't make it to a year. Anyway, sorry you got mini-flamed, I just thought I should say that.
thank you for writing this comment. it made me kind of upset when they were trying to get some medical reason or misinformation out of me because, of course, 17 months just isn't long enough!! but anyway, yes, thank you.
I read your post on parenting101 and I thought I'd suggest you Google "sensory integration dysfunction". Hope that helps. You sound like you're doing a good job, already. :)
With him banging his head so much (let me see if I can remember what you wrote. It's tomorrow. LOL) and making messes and not really allowing himself to be disciplined (distraction and other methods you try), sensory issues is what popped into my head. I have a kid with sensory issues. He's 5 now, but he used to bang his head, discipline is still a hit-and-miss deal, and he loves clutter. My friend's baby is 18mo like your son and he has sensory issues. He also bangs his head and throws his body around a lot (normal for kids with sensory issues). He makes huge messes.
I'm not saying your son has it, but if you've never heard of it and you read about it, it might help you. It's not the most common thing parents talk about, so I thought I'd bring it up in case that was your son's issue and it could help.
i actually have read about it before, but never really payed too much attention to it. i dont know anybody who has it, thats why i was asking your reasons. thanks for the advice, i will definitely look into it better now that i know your child shows similar characteristics as mine.
