Nora had her 9 month check up last week (😭) and I had to complete the development questionnaire. Her pediatrician is concerned with her communication. She said it should be at 60 and Nora’s is at 10 (point scale). She asked if anyone in our family had autism. Took me completely by surprise but she said she was just asking. Her pediatrician said to give her another couple of months and then she’ll refer her to ECI since she’s not babbling any consonant sounds. She also thinks it could be Nora is so concentrated on trying to walk that that’s where all her focus is going. I definitely don’t think she has autism, she engages and laughs and coo’s back to us. But I’m concerned that she isn’t babbling at all.
