my 9 month old daughter gives me SO much eye contact when she wants to, she will crawl over to me, laugh at me, smile playing peekaboo and will sit and look in my eyes however if I want her to look at me - no chance! I can sit right in front of her eyeline and repeatedly say her name and she will just keep looking in another direction, and will never turn around when I say it. still holds her arms up to be held, crawls, claps sometimes and trying to stand. just feeling really concerned
