Yes, DS3 crawled off the end of a bed when he was about that age.

He is the opposite now - he will make a great big palaver of stepping from one kind of surface to another (eg from paving to grass, or carpet to tiled) even though there is no drop.

That is interesting ds2 had a physio from birth & she picked up that his reflexes & early movement were either non existent or disordered, but at that time it was put down to delays & then CP, which of course could be the cause OR was it an early indicator of Autism?

The problem is children are only ever examined closely at this age if there are other conditions present, not routinely to screen for autism early on.
