No speech .. Is it due to apraxia or low tone or SPD
My son is 3 yr old, he has SPD, hypotonia and a rare genetic disorder. He does have a vocabulary but doesn't speak a word just babbles 'ba,pa' and lots of aaaa,.
He started to stick out his tongue just few months before. That too when he says aaaaa
He cannot blow candles, can't drink with a straw,can't move his tongue to lick
he is getting OT and PT and we are waiting for insurance approval for ST
Please help me as I have no idea what to do about his speech
He doesn't even babble any different sounds, which I most worried about.
Any help is appreciated,
Many thanks in advance.
