This weekend we attended a Sensory Integration class on both Saturday and Sunday. While it was taught be an extremely educated and passionate OT, unfortunately, we already had the information. We could have taught the class. That said, if you are new to SID or haven't read up much about it, take a class- it is worth it.
Grandma- or Hamma as Little Bug calls her- stayed with Little Bug and they had a great time both days. Apparently, our dog had a harder time with us leaving than Little Bug did.
Unfortunately, Little Bug had a typical day on Monday- self injuring, screaming, hitting and a whole host of sensory issues. Hamma got to go to school with him and see what he works on and the hard work he puts in. She also got to see what a day in the life is like for us.
Its not that it is all bad, just that when it is bad, it is really bad. Little Bug was almost feral Monday night- screaming for hour after hour and attacking his toys and people. We finally just resolved to have him lay down and watch a movie and chill.
His sensory issues with clothing, bathing, and diapering are coming back full force. He now will attack you and scream when it is time to do any of the above. I don't know how to help him at this point. Hopefully, our OT can begin to help us get this wrangled back in.
