Early Signs Of Autism In Babies

worry wart I am stupid and my mother-in-law is even worse. She noted that every time my son 10 months into a room that is not totally familiar w /, he looks around too much for too long. And he is so busy looking around that it is almost impossible to attract his attention while holding it. This is true for him, but seems logical. But I noticed a couple other things I thought we were so different and it made me think.

Early indications are possible:
not babble, point or make meaningful gestures by one year of age
do not speak a word by sixteen months
not combine two words by two years
does not respond to his name
Loses language or social skills
avoids eye contact
does not seem to know how to play with toys
excessive lines of toys or other objects
is attached to a particular toy or object
not smiling
sometimes seems to be hearing impaired

I would not worry too much though, as other posts said, I think your son is just being curious.

Looking around an unknown space shows that it is interested in him and he recognizes that it is in a different place. It's a good thing! It would be much more disturbing if he was not interested in his environment. When you fight to get his attention, he is just ignore you because there are too many things competing for his attention.
10 months is too young to see signs of autism. I do not know what you've noticed, but what you said is pure natural curiosity!

The lack of contact with eyes. Uncontrolled screaming. Lack of achievement of development goals. If this started after vaccination, it is a real possibility. Some children are born with the defect and it is not always out. The vaccine triggers the default and autism appears to be remained dormant without the shot. People inches shall be to me and say that it does not give to children, and it has not, it triggers something that was already there. Just keep watching. The only information you gave me sounds like he is very curious. You did not give other signs. Do some research on it and visit www.thinktwice.com which has links to others as you can get tons of information. There are stories of parents who may be you can see if the signs are similar or not.

Doctors will not actually call autism in children under 3 years, but yes there are cases of children with autistic tendencies at the age of childhood .... I suggest reading The Boy Who Loved Windows by Patricia Stacey, there are many very interesting and useful information in this book and interesting techniques for helping autistic children other than the ABA approach.

I do not know all the signs and others, but I know with autism, it would not be a coincidence when it comes to a strange room. It would all / most of the time. He looks around to see what he can take! If he does this mostly at home, eventually, be worried. But if he comes to check things, it's normal! Does it respond when you call his name? (At any time, and not just in a place unknown) he make eye contact? Stuff like that on a regular basis. Good luck!

your 10 months is just curious, no need to worry about curiosity. im 21 and I do the same thing

My 8 month old is the same way! It's a new place, they want to see what and who she is! Do not worry Mom!
These are things to look, but even if you see some or all of this does not mean that your child has autism ...
do not make eye contact or very little eye contact, put things in rows, do not accept change ...... change in routine, atm.
