Hoping for a year of progress

This past year has been so depressing with my son at 19 months old now, and still no crawling, standing, self-feeding, or pulling up. I've spent the last few days being really sad about it, and have now caught a nasty cold. I've got to try to pull it together and put all pessimism to the side and try to stay positive. My son is getting therapy several times a week, which is hard when it is so cold outside. He can drink through a straw now, which is nice, and is an improvement. He can also hold onto objects for a little longer than before. He can also entertain himself for 10-20 minutes. Long enough to make dinner or take a shower.

His teething has been hell. His crying goes on all day long, usually for almost two weeks at a time. He becomes inconsolable, and that's when I get upset. I'm hoping for a better year, and much more progress.

Introduction

My son Andy is 18 months old and has developmental delays for unknown reasons. MRI and genetic testing have revealed nothing. They've ruled out things, but given us no answers. The EEG is scheduled for next week. He can sit and play with toys now, but will still fall over sometimes. He scoots around on his back slightly. No crawling or walking yet. No pulling up or talking. He is filled with frustration and irritability. I am filled with worry, anxiety and depression. I take it day by day. He is in an Early Intervention program, and I also take him to private insurance paid therapy visits. No one can understand what I feel or am going through unless they too have a child with some type of special needs. I am fragile and trying to keep it together and its hard. Our daughter is typical/normal. She doesn't have any special needs issues. Andy loves interacting with her, and makes excellent eye contact. He loves all of his cousins and any kids that come around him. We are hoping he will someday be able to lead a normal life, and it is the biggest worry and source of anxiety that we have.
