my ds is 7.5 months, he flaps his arms and hand twirls when lying on his back or sitting in a chair - legs tensed out arms tensed out. he does it all the time.
He doesn't babble but he does maje aaahh sounds which are mainly throat and monotone.
he doesn't respond to his name or look at things i name or point out.
he doesn't crawl, only just started sitting up last couple of weeks.
when he rolls over he doesn't corkscrew but lifts his head tense and uses his legs to flip. Always doing stomach crunces.
other than that he smiles alot, is very active.
poor sleeper, refuses solids , allergic to dairy
Please tell me if you think this could be autism.
Many thanks
