[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When she is excited or gets bored, my early 2 year old DD would do hand flagging & jumping on tiptoes all the time. She also does it when music is on the background, it is her dancing move. She is a cheerful kid & laugh a lot. If you ask her to sit, she would sit down immediately & she understand commands. Developmental psychologist from dc children hospital rules out autism & adhd, and he says my DD has no diagnosis, just need to work on her speech delay. Is it just a phase or anyone's LO doing it? Sometimes I get some stares at library storytime from other moms when my DD does that, and I always try to ignore it & don't know what to say. [/quote]

My developmentally delayed kid would get looks too.  Take heart, OP and ignore any raised eyebrows.

I would encourage you to visit with a developmental pediatrician in a year if she continues to certain delays.  (2 is real early to diagnose ADHD.)

In addition to speech therapy one of the best things we did is speech camp.  Expensive but great for my kid.  Lots of options exist in DC, VA, or MD.[/quote]
