Chances of son having ADHD or Dyspraxia

[RiverSong]

Hello!

Just a quick one as I couldn't really find an answer online and all the HV says is that baby is too young to tell.

What are the chances of my baby having the above if my brother has both? I am dyslexic as is my Dad, there is nothing like this on hubbys side as far as we know.

I wouldnt worry about it, unless you see any signs later on. Chances are slim though

Is there any way to tell this early? I've noticed that recently he's been very vocal and stroppy, unless this is just him asserting his personality? (As a first time Mum I'm clueless lol.) xx

I dont think there is hun. I know Oscar was a quiet baby, didnt cry much, would smile but didnt giggle, he wasnt grumpy at all really, up until about this age to be honest, he was happy in his own little bubble......but then Oscar has autism.
Try not to worry too much, enjoy your LO, cos they grow soooooooo quick

My children as babys were exactly the same, one has asd, one doesnt. I dont think you can tell at this age but please just enjoy him and dont worry x
