Part 3 in this series ❤️
The flags above broken down further:
1. 🚩 not cruising, taking steps, or especially pulling to stand 2. 🚩 lack of non verbal communication and imitation of social gestures 3. 🚩 mama, dada, no, word approximations, animal sounds, etc all count! 4. 🚩 not bringing toys to show you, not seeking you out to interact with what you’re doing, limited eye contact, and not responding to their name 5. 🚩 always worth an immediate evaluation if there’s a skill regression lasting longer than several days with a previously acquired skill
Remember just because you see one of these signs, it doesn’t necessarily mean your child needs therapy. But it is a great idea to get a second pair of eyes on your kiddo and bring your concerns to the attention of your pediatrician ❤️
