Nothing is your fault. You never knew saywer would come out not breathing. U r doing a great job as a mom with so many kids and kids with special needs.
Hi from New Zealand 🇳🇿, my son, the youngest of five only said three words at the age of three. He is 20 now and has a full vocabulary. He was put into speech therapy and it did wonders. He had no reason to speak, his siblings did everything for him as kids do. Please don't be too concerned as of yet. Worry later when it clearly may be an issue. Your great parents, doing an amazing job.
My grandson began early childhood in home speech therapy at age 2 for apraxia through his school district. He was placed in early childhood development preschool 3 half days a week at age 3. Age 5 no speech issues. Early intervention with apraxia is important.
Love Posey dress....glad your getting some confirmed answers with Drs....I still praying about your New York house....bye Emily n Will have a great weekend!!
Lindy is still very young - practice will help her along & she'll speak when she's ready....too young though to label her with anything right now. Your children are all beautiful & your both doing such great work with their therapies, giving them the best chances for the fullest life - what more can a mum & dad do...your amazing! Love from Scotland x
Yes, it definitely could be apraxia for Lindy and I don’t think you can get diagnosed that late I know you can get diagnosed earlier than that. What I would recommend is getting her a communication device or like PECS cards. For her from a few years ago* If she is starting to slightly start saying sounds I would just say keep working on it and if she’s not talking right away it’s a because of a speech delay or maybe something else but it may not be that it could be her not being able to talk I feel sorry for her. It’s hard but I know she’ll get through it.
You are doing great as Parents! As long as Lindy is in Speech therapy, she will progress well in her speech. Looks like Kids are doing well with ABA. Keep it up!
You are an inspiration to me! My 6th baby girl ( who is now 6 ) was just diagnosed with level 1 autism. We will begin the therapies she needs in the coming weeks! I am scared and anxious about so much concerning her diagnosis! Thanks for always keeping it real and sharing your life with all of us! ♥️ This is Charlotte by the way, my husband is Travis 😉
Find another SPL if they are thinking Apraxia. My best friend's youngest has it and was diagnosed at age 2/3. And he won't outgrow it. It's a life long struggle he'll have.
I am special needs I was put in special education from 5th grade thru high school. May mom was pregnant with me 4 months and still taking birth control and I chocked at 8months was without oxygen for at least 5 mins. I didn't talk till I was 3.
My 4 year old has apraxia. She got a diagnosis at 3 but she's pretty severe. She can talk but the motor function is screwy and it comes out sounding like made up words. We're a year into intense speech therapy and I can understand 80% of what she says now. Unfortunately unknown listeners can only catch about 10%. She also had a ton of chewing and swallowing issues from birth that turns out was related to the disorder.
I NEED to know where You got that black baby gate at 2:40 !! It is so tall! My son scaled ours in moments, and actually broke it off it’s hinges eventually🤦♀️
Don't worry about Lindys speech, nobody could understand my grandson until he was almost 5, my nephew was also a late talker. Both caught up quickly without the intervention of speech therapy.
Having almost completed a module in psychology as part of my health science degree, including covering speech disorders, it seems to me that Lindy may have either Broca's or Wernicke's (pronounced Vernika's) aphasia. You wouldn't be able to tell without an MRI which one it is & even then, you can't guarantee an answer (it depends on how much of the Broca's or Wernicke's area is affected). It's most commonly caused by strokes, but it's not unknown for it to be a delay in development of one of those parts of the brain. It can be very frustrating because you know what you want to say, but you can't make your mouth say it. One of the techniques used with patients is sign language, which you mentioned in the last video. For adults, sometimes they're able to write down what they want to say.
There is always so much noise in the house with so many other kids. The speech issues,could be that she does not get enough quiete one to one time with mum to listen to words and learn at her own pace.
It’s so hard to let it go isn’t it when you see them struggling and just want answers so you keep digging and digging for answers. We are lucky in this time though.. as they are progressing in genetics very quickly.

My nearly 12 year old daughter is autistic, we've no idea why. She was IVF there are theories that can cause it, she was low birth weight, again that can apparently. I personally think its just the way she was meant to be , she's amazing!! She's a small girl , as in smallest in her secondary school year and she hates it, but she's all in proportion and to us she's absolutely PERFECT!
I agree - you cant always “figure” things out! I have 3 grown kids all with their own “issues.” We just take each thing and deal with it. But I think it would be tough if we tried to figure out the “why did this happen” with everything. That is called LIFE! We are all who we are and we are all just perfect...as you said!!! (I love what you wrote!!)
I keep on trying to focus on what you say but it’s very distracting to watch your videos cause you soooo beautiful I keep on having parasite thoughts like: what a perfect skin hahah (weird comment I know lol
Mom, please. Stop worrying and testing. Hubs didn't much speak till 3, now he never stops. Concentrate on their progress, Sawyer has grown in leaps and bounds. Labeling is restrictive. Constant repetitive schedules and rules go far. My friend and I both had autistic kids. Both are successful working intelligent adults. Work with their strengths .
My husband has high functioning autism and he’s always on the go he has his struggles but if he finds a understanding partner he could have a relatively normal life please don’t lose hope
Posey is a gem!!!!
Nothing is your fault. You never knew saywer would come out not breathing. U r doing a great job as a mom with so many kids and kids with special needs.
Agree- cant blame yourself!
I love to hear Sawyer talk, it is the cutest thing ever
That magic trick brought back so many good memories between my dad and I. Thanks for sharing that! Adorable.
Lindy will start talking and then she'll never stop!! Your children are adorable.
Sooooooo, so glad to see Will at home, happy happy happy day! :-)

Sending prayers for you and your family. Your kids are so blessed to have such wonderful parents

If there are issues, the fact that she is receiving intervention already is great.!

Your not alone my grandson has autism. But God is by your side always

You are doing amazing!! None of the issues are your fault!! All will work out!! Love your sweet 👪

You should reach out to the crazy pieces their daughter was diagnosed With aprexa before the age of 4
My 5 year was diagnosed with Apraxia at the age of 3. Sending love!
NONE of this is your fault!!!!! Love u
Love the hair cut
You got your answer. It's not your fault!
You are an inspiration to me!
My 6th baby girl ( who is now 6 ) was just diagnosed with level 1 autism. We will begin the therapies she needs in the coming weeks! I am scared and anxious about so much concerning her diagnosis! Thanks for always keeping it real and sharing your life with all of us! ♥️

Level 1 ASD is mild I think
Find another SPL if they are thinking Apraxia. My best friend's youngest has it and was diagnosed at age 2/3. And he won't outgrow it. It's a life long struggle he'll have.
I am special needs I was put in special education from 5th grade thru high school. May mom was pregnant with me 4 months and still taking birth control and I chocked at 8months was without oxygen for at least 5 mins. I didn't talk till I was 3.
My son was seen for speach appraxia yesterday as well. They said 75% of kids just outgrow it.
My niece only said a couple words when she was 2 and she had speech therapy and she won’t shut up and she is 4 now
There's a nicer way to say she is talking so much that she won't stop..... Saying shut up is harsh.
My 4 year old has apraxia. She got a diagnosis at 3 but she's pretty severe. She can talk but the motor function is screwy and it comes out sounding like made up words.

I had cellulitis at 1.5 years old and had an MRI scan I was fine no brain damage
Your such a wonderful Momma and Will is an awesome Daddy
Have you had her hearing checked
Why does Harrison seem to only wear his glasses when he is going to school
My son was diagnosed with Apraxia. He did not speak clearly until close to 5.
Our only child has autism and his speech therapist told us when he was 3 that he has apraxia.
I had that and I have autism and adhd
Hysterical she so believe she’s magic
I NEED to know where You got that black baby gate at 2:40 !! It is so tall! My son scaled ours in moments, and actually broke it off it’s hinges eventually🤦♀️
If you watch Crazy Pieces Vlogs the youngest daughter Aurora has Apraxia
Hi, thank you for your videos!
How was Sawyer during the MRI scan?

She does when the other four are at school every day.
The word you were thinking of was probably endocrinologist for growth/hormones i almost went to one when i was younger
So glad to see Lindsey without pacifier for a least a little. Great
/×+$# ثصلثق
It’s Lindy not Lindsay
WHAT IS MRI stand FOR WHEN IS HE getting a surgery
MRI stands for magnetic resonance imaging
No surgery just a test like a cat scan
Hey guys
Endocrinology? Maybe

It’s not your fault he is autistic for a reason only God knows the Reason. But if he is anything like my grandson he will touch a lot of lives
Yay first to watch
I bet L just has delayed speech. She'll probably start chatting in full one day soon. 🥰
That was my daughter, and now at 5 her speech is quite advanced.
💜💜💜💜

Endocrinologist. Hormone specialist.
My husband has high functioning autism and he’s always on the go he has his struggles but if he finds a understanding partner he could have a relatively normal life please don’t lose hope
Thanks Emily for sharing! We sent you an email regarding a business possible collaboration.Please check it out .Looking forward your reply.Thanks :))
They said 2 of my grandsons autism most likely was caused by traumatic births. Sawyer did have a traumatic birth. 🤔
Sometimes. Baby shots cause autism to.
No they don't lol
Wrong!
