So basically I have a couple of issues.
He doesn't know his name at all. Doesn't respond when called.
Hates being cuddles majority of the time and doesn't get comfort from being cuddled.
Is obsessed with things that spin, pushchairs, wheels. Bikes, cars etc.
Kind of understands some words/ phrases.
Has a couple of words.
Isn't working independently yet but is close.

Should I be worried about not responding to name and constant obsession with spinning things.
I know these 2 can be linked to Autism

He's only little but from what you've said it might be worth doing this 12 month progress checker and see if that flags up any concerns.

When was the last time your HV saw him @M0923?

I found my DS ignored his name especially if he was busy with play but if he was paying attention to me I asked who x, y, z was including (insert DS name) and he pointed to them and himself. He also has a fascination with wheels especially on cars. Most kids do. Try not to worry but always worth speaking to HV.
