My daughter will be 12 months old in a weeks time. She has always been a very smiley baby and responds to caregivers smile by smiling back. She reaches to be picked up, follows instructions such as come here (sometimes). She has just learnt to stand herself up against the sofa and can cruise along alittle. Her sleeping is okay, waking 1-2 times a night, has milk and goes straight back to sleep. She is slightly funny with some textures of food. She enjoys us singing to her and recognises nursery rhymes and will listen carefully and smile.
she cannot imitate any sounds (only sound she does make sounds like dada)
she cannot clap, wave or point and wont do so when we try and show her.
she flaps her hands when excited and for past 2 days she has been shaking her head recently.
her eye contact is not great but is there sometimes. She responds to her name around 40% of the time.
super hyperactive and crawls everywhere
often gets upset when we take something away from her and doesnt know how to give or show us any toys or anything she is playing with
any advise? Does this sound like autism
