My son is 16 months old and only says Mama and Dada...when he wants to. He has absolutely no signs of autism. He makes wonderful and completely normal eye contact and gestures like a pro. He has no problem getting his point across without words; for example, today, I gave him a Gerber fruit strip and 5 minutes later, he had dug the wrapper out of the trash can and brought it to me and then gestured at the pantry for another one. Like I said, he gets his point across, but I am starting to worry a little. He brings me books and listens to the stories and I go over words with him all the time everyday. Is there anything else I could be doing? I would appreciate any advice. Thanks so much!
