Hi there.

for the last year and a half i have noticed certain behaviour of his i thought was strange.
let me explain. whe he runs he flaps his arms, he still walks a lot on his tiptoes,
he is totally obsessed with trucks and tractors, when he is talking he constantly repeats himself
he sometimes comes across deaf , now i know all children have selectiveSelective mutism Selective mutism - resourceshearingAge-related hearing loss Audiology Hearing loss Hearing or speech impairment - resources but i dont think
he does this intentionaly. he is terrified of loud noises , like a drill or hairdryer etc he freaks out and runs to his room.and if he is outside he panicsPanic disorder Panic disorder with agoraphobia and hides. he also repeats the television and dvds he know nearly all the words
to some of the disneyDisney winnie the pooh complete Disney winnie the pooh gummies Disney winnie the pooh with extra c films. he is very clever in other ways he knows his abc, his numbers up too twentyTwenty twenty, his shapes
his colours and his left from his right. when he is in company to other children he runs up to them and makes really
weird faces up close to them and runs around screaming. could someone please give me advice
as im not sure what to do i dont want to take his to a specialist if he is fine , but i guess its mothers intuition i feel
there might be a problem. thanks for taking the time to read this plz reply.
He does show some autistic behaviors, but it could be something else. I would be worried too and I'll definitely take him to a specialist. It's better now than later and you might get your peace of mind.
thank you for replying. i will go to my doctor on monday and ask for my son to be refered to see a specialist. i hope im wrong and he is fine but if he does have autism we will still love him. thanks again
Your kid sound autistic im familiar ;i have a son severe autistic he is 12 and yet he is non verbal.
i think the best way is to take him to a specialist on diagnosed for autism .
Get informed about Autism too many people just except the Diagnosis, Please there is help for Autism there is Hope. Find a good DAN Doctor and get informed about your options!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is a update regarding my son,
last week he was at physio for his feet as he has flat feet and tight achilles tendons . this was his first appointment with physio during the
session the physio asked me if i knew what dcd was, which i didnt .
its dyspraxia she thinks my little boy has this and not autism, she told us his motor skills are slow etc. so now im waiting ti get refered for dyspraxia. i just wish i could get his diagnosed now and get him the help he needs.
thanks again keep you posted
