What was your autistic child like as an infant? As a toddler, Mary...
Never mouthed objects even when teething
Never put feet down to bounce on legs of a person; or in the “jolly jumper” or exersaucer
Never put pressure on her legs
Would raise legs into a seated position and hold them there when asked to stand up
Showed poor motor skills – (most of these were met with the dedication and hard work of the Occupational therapists )
Rolled over (Nov. 10th 2007 – 4 months old),
Disliked being on belly as an infant,
Delayed in crawling (day before 1st bday),
Pull to stand (Oct 2008-15months old),
Cruising (Nov 2008-16 mo. old),
Stand up by herself in middle of floor (March 2009 – 20 months), take her first steps (mid January 2009 -18 months old),
Will take a few steps with assistance (Feb 2009)
Will toddle on own (April 2009 – 21 months)
When she finally did roll over she wouldn't roll back to her original position
She doesn't kick one leg at a time – instead she thrusts her legs from her hips bilaterally ( stimming )
