Developmental Delay v. Speech

Hi! Looking to see if any other school-based SLPs have suggestions for push-back from psychs. I’m in a small district, and the 2 main psychs always tie issues back to communication when I (the SLP) have more global concerns, like DD, ASD, etc. They’ll suggest to just qualify for speech then see how it goes, even when other domain scores are low. I’d love to have some type of chart/resource to share with them. Any suggestions?

Cassidy & Kids

Does anyone follow Cassidy Anderson? I used to love her, but she’s become unbearable with her “holier than thou” parenting strategies and non-stop pumping/BFing talk.

On the Fence About Baby #2

As the title says, I’m on the fence about baby #2. My husband and I are both high income earners but have demanding jobs. Our son is 3.5, so I’d like to ideally get pregnant soon. We’ve been talking about it for a year but my husband keeps thinking about all we could do for our son if there’s only 1 (private school, down payment on a house, etc) as well as things we could do with the extra money (vacation home, payoff house early, etc). It’s important to note that my family is close and my mom would most likely be watching the baby for the first 1-2 years. I’d love opinions from moms who chose either side!

Virtual EI Provider

I recently got a EI contract with a rural district for virtual services. In the last week, I’ve had 2 families ask to switch to in-person. On one hand, I understand (both are active boys), but I’m also feeling discouraged and frustrated. Any tips are appreciated.
