I am just looking for some advice I have noticed by baby has started rotating his wrists and opening and shutting his hands when sitting. He has started to not look at me when I call his name and I feel his eye contact is becoming more brief. He doesn't seem to be babbling as much either.
Hi NAS63786,
The diagnosis page for children here on the site - https://www.autism.org.uk/about/diagnosis/children.aspx - outlines the process of getting an autism diagnosis for your child, however, doctors will generally not diagnose a baby under 2 years old. Probably the best idea would be to see your GP or paediatrician and discuss your concerns with them.
Best wishes,
