She is not a baby anymore

Went to OT with Janelle yesterday.... And the OT had says something something which wake me up...

"SHE IS NOT A BABY ANYMORE... NO MORE HELP SHOULD BE PROVIDED.. ONLY BABY THAN WE GIVES HANDS TO HELP"










Yes, lesser help will be offer to her from now on.. she will need all kind of training to learn what she needs to learn..

I always hope that Janelle can walk on her own by 2.. so have been trying to do lots of things with within a short period of time.. the focus is not there... I'm going to change my strategy.. focus stay focus.. one at a time.. so now.. my focus is to improve her drooling.. and lots of mouth simulation I'm going to provide to her...

Tips provided by OT and SP
1. once see her drool, will need to tab dry and remind her to close her lips
2. give her some tasty drinks and let her feel her tongue and remind her to swallow
3. give her more opp to chew to train her mouth's mausle
4. Learning to use a straw for fluids can improve drooling.
5. reduce pacifier time
