So ladies I need some advice. My son has autism but I have to wait until he is 3 to know where he is on the spectrum. He is non verbal and doesn't understand when he is being spoken to (doesn't understand words) he also has problems with his hearing that are being assessed but lately he has been taking his pants and nappy off and crying anytime we put one on him. I think he may be ready for potty training but I'm worried as he doesn't understand alot and can't tell me in any way if he needs a toilet has anybody been in a similar situation and has any advice? I have researched it and it says just to put him on the potty until he does something and praise him when he does but just looking to see if there is any personal experience I can go off?
Have you heard of PECS - picture exchange communication system. Also do you have a speech and language therapist as they would be super helpful in understanding how to use PECS. There are some YouTube videos about showing how to use them.
I do I had his autism nurse out this morning and she was telling me about it and said to order some pictures to help him so I've ordered some off Amazon xxxx
Have you tried looking into signs ? Like there is a sign for toilet that he might find easier to learn than words. It could be something to look into. Xx
I have been teaching myself sign language and makaton to be able to help him communicate but he doesn't quite understand the concept of it. It was saying online to use pictures round the house and teach them to stand by a picture when they need to go but I'm not sure osian has that sort of patients 🙂 xx
@kirikatrina oh I work in a nursery and we had to show a little boy a picture when we were going out into the garden or else he would get really upset if we were just to start leaving the playroom. It could be an option
@beveridge.s I'm going to order some when I get his potty hopefully if he sees it enough he will get use to it. Thanks Hun xxx
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
the amount of women who are clueless about their own anatomy is so sad and shocking. a lot of the women are older than me and have more children then I do 😳
now I understand that everyone has their own opinion on the topic and grown adults can do whatever they want with their bodies but to deny facts and make up false statements about your own anatomy when it comes to your unborn child is just so disappointing.

So at work we have a drink thief. Any time we put a drink in the fridge it disappears. I swear I know who it is. So far he's taken drinks from everyone that works in the office, we even put a sign to not take anything you didn't pay for and wrote our names on the drinks. The person I think is taking them works out of the office so we never get to see who is drinking them.
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
Agree with the PECS you can also start simple by using photos of familiar things. Also makaton is great to start teaching young you can use with pecs and speach so that little man can communicate back a little too x
