Dave took Nate to his speech evaluation today and everything seemed to go pretty well.
For now, he's referred us to a speech pathologist to help up figure out what the next step will be. They will want to rule out a hearing issue, which we are pretty sure isn't an issue. They will also look more at his tongue and if the issue is really due to him being tongue tied. If so, they will send us to an Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist and possibly have the skin under his tongue clipped. Doesn't sound too great, does it? :(
They also gave us information about speech therapy and how we can receive those services at a reduced fee since most insurance companies won't cover them.
So, overall, it's what I expected. Glad that they were willing to listen and help us get the help that Nate needs.
