Oh my gosh I am going into serious mommy failure mode!
I just read a post from another WS mommy of all the therapies and services her WS child is recieving for the next school year, and I now I feel that Lila is seriously missing out on therapies/services.
Oh I can't stand it! I hate when I have the rug pulled out from under you feeling. I have got to remember to BREATHE.

Don't panic. I have thought the same thing from time to time. You have to take a breath, sit back, and really think about your child. Do you think she is making progress? Do you think she needs more? Follow your gut then. I came back from the seminar in September and felt like I needed to increase his therapies and I did. There have been also times that I talk to other parents and feel the same way you do. Then I have to sit back and think "what is best for Noah". Right now he barely tolerates what he is recieving. I need to remember that his is still a little boy. I have know doubt you will do what is right. You are a good, loving mom.
I feel like this everyday too...I'm starting to panic mildly everytime I think about 2 of Amina's therapies ending next week that we got through our private insurance and us having to depend on EI for all her services. I have to remember to breathe too.
Breathe, Breathe.......you know your child best. Not all children require or like Julie said, can tolerate so much therapy. Take it a day at a time.
I used to do the same thing! Then, after watching Payton I realized she couldn't tolerate near the amount of therapy that some children receive. She goes into meltdown mode really quickly. Just breathe, take your time and do what your gut tells you! :)
Sorry Tes, I have to laugh because I can relate, but also because there is such a thing as OVERKILL!!!! Don't worry too much, it is only therapy and as an active parent you are giving her a lot of it without even knowing.
