We have tried sooooo many times to persuade him to try cycling without the extra wheels but it turned out a disaster every single time. He just wouldn't try.
So on Saturday morning I said to him "We are going to the beach - you can come with but you have to cycle if you do". He gave me a look and shook his head.
Five minutes later he came and said "Mum, I want to come with but I can't cycle". I told him that I would walk with my bike if he walked with his.
Before we knew it he was on the bike and pushing with his legs - then suddenly he started picking up speed and voila! He started peddling.
I don't know if it has anything to do with the medicine but I am so proud of him.
With the exception of a change in sleeping pattern we have noticed no negative side effects of the medicine yet.
I can't notice a difference in his behaviour but dad and big brother say that they can. They feel that contrarian is 'listening' to them before he responds. For them it makes communicating with him easier.
To me he seems as talkative as ever.
