Hello ☺️
I have a very affectionate DD of 17 months . She just had her well being checkup with the HV and ticked all the boxes . She has 50 words and can say “ I know “ I want “ go away etc . Can walk since she was 12 months , good imitation, eye contact and pretend play . she occasionally crosses her fingers only when tired and sucking her thumb . She has been doing it for a few months and I am aware it can be a sign of ASD . Asked my gp and wasn’t in the least concerned. It is a normal phase ? Anyone had experienced this ? Pic for show

Hi OP

my ds done this for about 3 months straight I was also worried but soon realised it was just a phase . I think it’s just something they do accidentally but like the feeling of doing , he just stopped doing one day and to be honest I didn’t even realise, he’s 2 in a couple of weeks and I absolutely no concerns about him .
