New Video
Sorry, it's been a while since my last post! I just got an email on YouTube from a mother who has a son who presents just like my daughter did at this age (~9 months). The movements start around the 1:14 mark.
That is EXACTLY what my daughter did at that age as well. She is three now and its more of a fist and facial thing. She points her toes as well if she is sitting.
Thank you so much for posting this video. It's reassuring to know that "we are not the only ones" whose child has stereotypy. Doctor after doctor could not help us until I requested we see a childrens' neurologist who finally gave us a "name" as to what this is. With much love, Chrissy
SO HAPPY i found this site! It just inspired me to write a blog on My 10 month old son, who i believe has the same thing. I never knew what he was doing was a "thing" If you could, check it out and see the videos i published, let me know what you think!

ReplyDeleteThis is pretty much EXACTLY what my 7 month old daughter does. Her facial expressions are a little more subtle. I am relieved to know I am not alone
