Previous concerns re DC gestures. Nearly 15 months. In contact with the HV 2 monthly to discuss development.
The last few days DC has copied waving in their highchair
I will wave my hand and they will wave back. Will only do it in highchair as probably no distractions and copies me. They will not do it for hello/goodbye, doesn't understand the meaning, generally just copying my actions occasionally.
Does this count as waving? The HV has asked me if they are waving yet but I am unsure. DH doesn't think so as won't wave hello and goodbye and won't do it consistently.
DC also clapped a few times a month or so ago but nothing since despite me doing it all the time. Again, do I say they can clap or not?
So confusing as I am not sure if I am overthinking it but when I see other friends babies, they will clap/ wave on demand consistently.
