Hi
It's my first time here, please forgive me if this is in the wrong forum.
My beautiful daughter is 27 months. She's always been so energetic and happy and just never sat down. She was on time with all her milestones until now.
I had noticed a few little things along the way which were mainly not pointing a far, moreso in books etc at pictures. And she flapped her hands a stiffened up a little when she got excited.
Lately, she seems to have been swapped for another child, especially this week. She used to say at least 50 words but now she just doesn't seem interested at all and won't answer me most of the time. It's absolutely heartbreaking. It feels as though I've lost my baby. I've been up for days and nights crying at the loss. I don't understand what has happened or what I've done. I've tried ever so hard to help her but she just seems to distracted and not interested in me. It makes me so sad that she'd rather play alone and not look at me. She doesn't tell me what she wants or anything. She just runs around and babbles constantly.
She also recently started copying the script from her favourite episodes of child's TV.
I don't know what to do.. I'm trying to get her assessed but the doctors are saying she's ok because she HAS said 50 words before, and she isn't autistic. I feel so sad and scared I don't know where to turn for support.
Please, if anyone else has any input.. I'd be so grateful.
