Early Detection

If your baby is showing any of these signs, don’t get overly concerned. It does not necessarily mean they have one of the autism spectrum disorders. They could still be developing normally as all babies will probably display some or all of these characteristics at some time during their development.

However, if you have any doubts, the first step would be to consult your pediatrician.

Early signs of Autism (After the age of 1 year old):

• Absence of Cooing, Babbling and Pointing
• Poor Eye-Contact
• Failure to Respond to Their Name
• At times seems to be hearing impaired
• Lack of Gestures to Communicate
• Lack of Desire to Interact
• Ritualistic or Compulsive Play Patterns
• Excessively lining up toys or other objects
• Resistance to physical contact
• Loss of Language or Social skills (15-36 months)
