Woah that's huge news with your late ADHD diagnosis, must be tricky with so much of your energy going to parenting to be able to process that at the same time. Thanks so much for sharing so openly, all the best to your family.

Thanks you so much for making this video. It actually great to see there is always light at the end of the tunnel. Am in similar situation but my daughter is 18month reading through the web got me so worried . At wat age did you boy start making words progress was he also tiptoeing my little one not responding to her name too

[@candidlymish]

I'm so glad! There is definitely a light at the end of the tunnel. Things we read on the internet can make us so scared for the future. My son started making real progress with his speech when he turned 3. He started to put 2-3 words together, tell us what he wants most of the time. Now he is almost 3.5yrs and he says hi mummy and hi daddy when he sees us, and cries "mummyyy" when I leave him. Which is sad but also makes me happy that he is saying my name and crying for me. He doesn't tip toe walk as much anymore, he mainly did it up until 2.5yrs. Now he responds to his name most of the time (sometimes he is too distracted). All the best to you ❤️

@@candidlymish thanks for your honest reply I will keep you updated with my daughter progress once she gets assessed

[@beyourself7877]

Hi @candidy Mish just a little progress update my little one started her feww walking steps this week more than excited. The next step am hoping for it speaking, responding to name and understand . At what age did your little one start responding to name?.and thanks for your continue hopeful words

[@candidlymish]

@@beyourself7877 that's amazing, yay!! I can't remember the exact age Tide responded to his name, but it was definitely over 2, I'd say close to 2.5 years. He is hitting milestones later but definitely hitting them. For instance, he's only started pointing in the last month and shaking his head for 'no' in the past week

[@beyourself7877]

@@candidlymish wow that sounds so good to hear that he is improving. With Faith they will hit their milestone in no time

[@marinawilliam8956]

[@candidlymish]
