...particularly the predominantly impulsive / hyperactive kind. What were they like as babies...in hindsight were there any indicators of ADHD?

Andrew hasn't been diagnosed with it but I am sure he has it. He is so overly active (and i'm always told he's just a boy) and sometimes has the attention span of a goldfish. As a baby he was pretty good.

His preschool are watching his behaviour now and after that is done we may look at seeing a dr about it. I'm finding that he isn't listening (we are getting his hearing tested soon) to us and that after we ask him something he just goes off and does other things.

I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!
