Hey girls,
Just wondering if any of your 1 - 2 year olds (particularly those younger than 18mo) have ever headbutted things in anger/frustration or for apparently no reason?
Harrison does this ALOT. For example, if he is told off, or something is taken away, he will drop to the floor and headbutt. Doesnt matter if its carpet, concrete or wood, he will hit his head so hard, he has bruised
He does it in public, at home, at my mums house, and if he cant get to the floor he will just wriggle and wrestle until he lands in a heap on the floor and then will headbutt.
Im just wondering if this could be considered 'normal' at any stretch of the word, or if i am indeed needing to speak to the HV about the remarkable similarities between Harrison and his Dad, who has autism, and did the exact same thing.
thanks girls xx
