Hey, i'm new here. My son is 15 months and is developing slow in all aspects. He was late at sitting up, crawling and isn't walking. He currently see's a speech therapist due to his eating and not being able to talk he can only babble and also see's a physiotherapist cos he can't walk. He can only pull himself up but that is very rarely we are currently waiting to see a peadtrician we have been waiting now for 3 months.
Ever since i can remember my son has always done hand flapping and will constantly look at his thumb and kick his legs. He doesn't play with toys properly will just hang them off his thumb or just play with the wheels on a car. He can't go to anything if we point anything to him, he doesn't clap he also does this thing with his head sometimes and moves it side to side. He doesn't enjoy hugs. I'm really starting to believe he may have some kind of autism but as he is so young getting any kind of diagnoses will be hard.
Anyone got any advice they can offer and whether they may think he has it? He certainly shows signs.
