Autistic?

Hello everyone,I hope we’re all doing great.Just really want to pour how I feel.My daughter is 16 months and she is very active,always on the move literally and it used to bother me a lot but I didn’t get so worried because she was meeting all her milestones.Immediately she turned 15 months,she stopped responding to her name,always flapping her hands and scratching her dress,crying and always wanting to be carried,spins around in circles sometimes and always giggling to herself but she’s very interactive and plays with all of us.Reading all the stories of autism make me believe she might be autistic. What really broke my heart this evening was when my mother in-law just said she spoke to my sister Inlaw and her baby who is 13 months is saying more words than my baby and he isn’t so active(she’s always saying this,comparing both of them). I know she means no harm but it just really broke my heart that she might really be autistic and I have been sitting here all evening blaming myself.
