I'm worried about my 9 month old's development. She can sit well but won't put her arms out when she falls, she can't lift herself up on her arms or knees in to a crawling position and she won't roll from back to front still. On top of this she is displaying traits which point to autism when you research it so i'm wondering if anyone else has had these problems but their child did not have autism? She won't look me in the eye when feeding, she won't respond to her name, she rarely likes to be cuddled and arches away from me quite often when I hold her. Sometimes it's hard to make her look at me and she flaps her arms a lot, shakes when excited and tenses her limbs a lot. She does smile quite a lot and giggles occasionally but it can be hard work to make it happen Am I worrying for no reason? I would really appreciate any advice and especially from parents with children who have autism. Thank you
