Pausing in a screen reader for accessibility

I have been using the Mac OSX's built in screen-reader for testing my site, I know it's not the best but it's all I have for now. But I'm finding it isn't pausing at the end of elements... which makes sense; but I'm finding myself placing hidden periods to make things readable:\[code\]<div class="breakdown"> <strong>35</strong> New<span class="visuallyhidden">.</span><br> <strong>4</strong> Overdue<span class="visuallyhidden">.</span></div>\[/code\]I feel really dirty doing this, but if I dont then either it ruins the design, or it is read in a continuous sentence which is not comprehensible.Does anyone have an experience of this kind of thing to offer?
