Hi all
I'm looking for some classic mums net honesty and support... Pleeeasse?!
I keep being worried about my 8 month old girls interaction with me and other people. She's an only child.
Her motor skills are great, gross motor skills so good, eats well.
But she just seems.... Antisocial... For lack of a better word.
She isn't a gooey eyed smiley baby at people. She's a death stare or no attention at all.
She does give eye contact on her terms and she does giggle when we tickle her etc.
But. I can't keep her attention. She will look to me but quickly look away. So teaching her clapping and waving is nye on impossible at the mo.
Is the world more interesting than people? Can babies just be antisocial and prefer their own thing?
Dr Google just screams autism whenever I Google anything to do with babies so that's useless as she's only 8 months!
Thank you for reading and really hope you can put my mind at rest.
