Sensory not wanting to be dressed or diaper changed. Seeking out stimuli with touch.
She's unhappy, crying every 5 minutes.
Does she startle from noise? How is her eating? How is her grip, strength?


When she was a baby she startled easily and couldn't calm down. I definitely considered that she has sensory issues just not enough to do something about it. Also I didn't relate her wanting everything she sees to sensory.

She is a blog snacker. Does not eat big meals. I try to at least give her healthy foods. I don't know how to get her to eat big meals. She wakes up in the mor and wants a banana. Than a little later a piece of cheese. When we all sit down to eat she will eat some eggs etc. . She is in a playgroup and eats a few snacks and lunch. Than at 5:00 she wants a few bites than at 6:00 etc. .but never eats a big supper. Maybe this is just her. .?

she sounds sensory and please have her evaluated by early intervention.
Even though she is behaving how other kids her age behave, it is the intensity, excessiveness of the behavior that can make her an especially challenging child. Hatzlocha raba in finding the right help!

It sounds like she can use some help from early intervention. It takes a lot of advocating and knowing what to ask for to get help from them. Can you hire an advocate to help you with a case to try to get her services for OT and the like?


Why do you have to hire an advocate? Try to obtain services first before spending money where it likely doen't have to be spent.

EI doesn't treat sensory issues unless there are other delays. OP doesn't have the energy to figure out where else her baby is lacking and what to ask for or how to show why the baby needs services.

How is she in playgroup? What does the teacher say? Does she nap nicely there? Ask for snacks? Cry?
