This is us

Hi there I thought I would first introduce my self, I must add I am very new at this so lets see how this goes. My name is jade this is me →→  

I must add this is me on a good day instead of rocking the mum bun. I am 28 years old yes you read that right. The reason for this new journey is i have a 4 year old son, we are currently waiting for him to be diagnosed with ASD. His name is Alfie he is the main reason why i am doing this. In my family we do not have a family member diagnosed with autism we are all just a crazy bunch and they will all totally agree. Like i was saying i wanted to start this blog to raise awareness about autism, as i do think people know about it but i think it dose not get enough credit. When people ask about my son they always tilt their head and say awww I’m sorry. I look at them while i tilt my head and ask why are you sorry. I never get an answer i always get a look of confusion on their face that I find funny, in a way i think that’s just my sense of humour. They do this because they do not know anything about it. I do not see it as a bad thing i see it as my son has a super power. He has an ability that i do not have and i want him to know there is people out there just like him. I also want to share appreciation for the superhero’s that support any body with autism you are a superhero too!!

So here i am to share mine and my sons story you will see the high and the lows, On how his journey first started to where we are today.I hope you guys like this and if i help one person then i have accomplished my mission. In this blog i will add any tips that work for me, I’m not saying they will work for everybody but you never know. I will also be talking about the support i did and did not receive from the nhs. Before you even think about it no i will not be slagging them off as they do an amazing job for us!! I will just be sharing my experience in all expects and like i said it just my opinion. I will be talking about all about how Alfie is in his day to day life to eating, activities we do at home and also his sleeping. 

Here is the superhero i will be talking about. I would like to introduce Alfie.


Now you all know who is behind this blog i will finish with a thank you for listening and following our journey. I hope you all enjoy it !!

2 year check

 So it all started with a health visitor coming round, unfortunately it wasn’t mine it was someone me and Alfie had never met before. Its ok my mum was here as i was really nervous as i had lots of questions about Alfie’s super powers. So she sat me down and explained that she was going to ask me lots of questions off a questionnaire that will show where he is up to. They was questions i never thought she would ask me. As i am a first time parent I didn’t know what to expect. Every question she was asking they was all no. Can Alfie speak? No. Can Alfie jump on the spot unaided? No. Can Alfie stack these blocks unaided? We tried and the answer was no. I remember feeling such a bad parent my child couldn’t do any of these things, is it my fault have i not taught him properly. Then i thought i know ill show her what Alfie can do.  Alfie can use an iPad even i struggle with that i am not a technical person what’s so ever!! He can stack his cups in size order and taken them down in size ord

When his super powers started to show

I wold like to say Alfie was one and half when his super powers shown to me!!  I started to notice he would shake his head from side to side a lot, at first i thought it was because we would dance to whip my hair back and forth as i do silly stuff. We call this our mad half hour, i say we meaning me more as Alfie would just walk away and leave me to it. I would always be saying “ Alfie come and join in with mummy.” He would just run off and do his own thing. That’s fine mummy will have a dance in the front room. I then started to notice he didn’t want to play with me, he liked to be on his own and i used to get really upset and think why does my son not want to play with me, i would try and get involved and he would turn his back on me and walk away and he was more happy playing on his own. I thought ok as long as your happy playing i do not want to disturb you. His speech also has not come at this point and i was getting really worried, so like you do you speak to your family members
