Hi Theresa.  Your story looks just like mine!  My daughter is 4 and just got diagnosed.  Her clothing issues are the same way!  How is your daughter doing now? Jennifer

OT works great!!! Get tested by a neuropath for all food sensitivities. The major ones are WHEAT, DAIRY, Gluten and casein, Eggs, peanuts and soy. Yeast is another common one. If you go to traditional allergist.. they only test for allergy or no…

To Laurie.....I can't believe how simular my daughters clothing challenges are to yours. My husband and I have had many tear-filled-guilty mornings. She has finally just recently been diagnoised with SPD. My 8 yr old has had clothing problems…

Teresa, I could have written this post. I have a 5-year-old daughter with SPD and she has been in OT for about nine months now. Dressing is really my daughter's main SPD issue. It often consumes our lives. It can be very disruptive to the…

Daughter with SPD too sensitive to wear socks or underwear

My daughter is 4 and can't stand wearing underwear or socks. We've tried different styles and sizes of underwear even boys. Was wondering if anyone has the same problem and if they make seamless socks for children?

You're welcome Teresa. Yes, my experience and understanding is that there is no absolute cure but the OT and other therapies help our children to better integrate their senses. I have also learned from adults with SPD that they continue to use…

Thank you, we started the brushing program when she was first diagnosed. She had gotten better with the dressing so we hadn't been doing it but my OT suggested starting again before she dresses. I'm finding out that they don't get…

Hi Teresa, My daughter and I went through this when she was about the same age. If you haven't already, talk with her OT about this issue. What really helped was the Wilbarger Brushing/Deep Pressure Protocol method. I posted a video on the…

Trouble dressing my daughter with SPD

My daughter is 4 and has been diagnosed with SPD for 6 months. We do OT once a week and also stuff at home. Our biggest trouble this last week is her clothing. Everything is too tight, itching, hurts, too hot. She went through this awhile ago which initally led me to talk to the Dr. about this and other behaviors. I just wonder what is "right" she doesn't like to wear panties with any pants, shorts, or tights. Is it OK? I warned her daycare provider that she'd be coming today without any, not…See More

Hey Teresa!
Oh my goodness.. I can relate so well.. as a matter of fact.. it still happens occasionally at age 9 but soooo much better.. We do OT stuff, exercise, diet , supplements, EVERY day.. and if we fall off the bandwagon for even one day.. WE PAY!!! It's a work in progress. Take heart.. we all need each other and we can hopefully help other moms/dads who are seeking advise and help!!! Thanks for joining and your contribution! Mary
