Re: developmental milestones. At our 12-month visit with our pediatrician last week, she told us families/parents can refer themselves to Early Intervention in their area. My 12-month old is behind with moving around, basically. Our pediatrician explained that Early Intervention is free for all kids 3 and under. When I called our nearby Early Intervention office, they told me they will assess my baby and then, if she scores below a certain threshold in any one of the areas, then we will be eligible for free services like physical therapy or speech therapy or other things. I found this to be a reassuring thing! We scheduled an assessment with Early Intervention because we want more answers than “wait and see.” Good luck!!
