32 weeks pregnant next to a son that have autism?
Hi I am 32 weeks pregnant with my second child and I was wondering will my son get use to another child he has autism.He takes a lot of my time but he is such a momma boy he still doesn't speak he not potty trained it only been for four years.I wanted another babe-in-arms for him I am so worried what will happen when I am gone and I want him to have someone to look after him I could never put him in a home.I be just hope he gets use to the new child what do you all think
My brother is autistic and he's really excited to be an uncle... at 8 yrs ancient lol.
Every time I see him I try to incorporate him in my daily baby things similar to eating I say oh it's time to feed the toddler and he likes to tell the baby what s/he will be intake. And he likes to tell the baby when to progress to sleep etc...
So, he knows there is a baby coming and he know that there will be changed and that he needs to be gentle (because he get really excited).
The best you can do is continue to prep him with the fact that in that is a baby on the way. Get a baby doll and procure him to pretend it's the baby and he needs to be gentle and soundless when it's sleep time and maybe that'll prepare him more, having somethign to physcially touch and treat like a tot.
When you're in the hospital can't your mom watch him for a while. If she can start preparing him now for that time. From pesonal experience my brother doesn't resembling surprises and doesn't like his daily schedule thrown rotten. He needs to be informed in advance if something is going to revision. So keep reminding him daily that when you go into hard work grandma will be watching you for a couple days because your brother or sister needs time to settle in.
Best of luck to you! Just make sure he's aware of what's going on.
My suggestion would be to get someone who specializes in Autistic Care to look after your son while you are within labor and at the hospital (if you cannot have a family member). I'm not sure if you mean of late that though, since you mentioned a home. Its too bad that you're most likely not in the nouns my sister lives in, she is a therapist who specializes in art analysis for autistic children. She'd do it in a heartbeat! Anyways, that's what I would do.
And as for the child and introducing a baby to him, just clutch it little step by step...it'll be just fine. Make sure he is included in everything no matter how distant he is (you don't mention how severe the autism is).
Answers: A good friend of mine have 2 little boys and the oldest is 5 and he is Autistic... he also doesnt really talk yet and is a real mummies boy. He is also a great big brother! He have always been good at individual gentle when told and follows his little brother around like a puppy! they jsut adore each other!
Hoep i help. And good luck :-)
