My LO is 8 Months Old and developing normally and meeting all milestones.
He's crawling, was sitting up at 4 Months and is very vocal babbles and smiles and laughs a lot. He has started clapping his hands and is a quick learner.
There are a few things I'm worried about that I'm not sure being a first time Mum if it's normal baby behaviour or early signs of autism and I'm stressing myself out.
He twists his wrists and has done since he was little when ever he gets excited, and he likes to feel things and use his thumb to press against things and bends his knuckle. I'm aware these things may just be a baby developing and learning new hinges around him but I could really do with some advice and reassurance that other people's babies do this and have not got autism.
Thanks in advance 😊
