Thanks Onyx and Sparkez. I have thought about taking him to get checked out but then I feel guilty that I am even thinking about it iykwim, in case it's nothing. Does that make sense? lol
Sparklez, I have given him toys and he does get distracted with them most times. Maybe he is trying to communicate as he tends to do it when he's excited or unhappy .
Sigh, maybe I'll get him checked
Sweets i'd get him checked. Cant do any harm kwim? My dj is an arm/leg flapper, but thats the angelman. Hopefully a dr. would be able to help him comminicate better/reffer onto some one who can.
It makes perfect sense that you're reluctant to get him checked and feel guilty for thinking there is something wrong.
DH didn't want DS1's speech checked out and I remember hoping like crazy that the Dr would tell me I was being silly. Right now he has a weird twitch that I know I should get checked just in case but I have been avoiding in case it is something worse than a twitch (head in the sand syndrome lol). I will get off my butt tomorrow and make an appointment.
It is the 'head in the sand' syndrome Onyx! lol. I feel guilty for even thinking he's anything but perfect I was speaking to DF last night and he seems to think it's his emotions and not being able to communicate as yet as he doesn't talk. He takes him out to the park most days in his car (one of those little tikes ones with the floor as he can't push himself along yet, he is totally obsessed with it ) an he says he doesn't flap his hands once the whole time. He goes on the swing and he's fine. He says it's only when he's trying to tell us something that he does it. DF reckons he's been doing it less since he's been crawling on his hands and knees as he's now concentrating on something new
I remember my little sister doing this when she was a baby - she'd do it when excited or frustrated. She did eventually grow out of it, but can't hurt to talk it over with your doc as well.
