hey everybody! just joined up today as wondering whats what with autisim really....
(i dont understand all this abbrev stuff ! so bear with me )..
have 4 children, 13,9,15 months & 4 months.. the 15 month old concerns me greatly...
it all strted really when he'd fall off something and just get up seemily not bothered, maybe on a really hard fall he'll cry but other than that nope.. nothing, thisis what has me wondering... he does not wave, rarely claps, says no words yet that mean anything, kisses with a headbutt!, spins round and round, has to close anything that is open,drawers,fridge etc... fascinated with wheels on a car, HATES going to toddler/baby groups in fact the ones we've taken him to in the past we have just ended up leaving as everyone stares so much at us with 'the screamer' in the corner! shows no interest when out on the pushchair at things going by etc.. basically hes just happy at home, hates change.. over the weekend we tried to sit out in the garden to no avail, he just stood behind the duvet drying on the line with on/off crying.... I know that if i go to hv with all this she'll just think im having another crazy moment but i just know somethings not quite right...tip of the iceberg being the phone dropping on his head last night full pelt to which he just walked off... any suggestions/ ideas / comments would be most welcome xx
