[quote=Anonymous]This is my fourth kid, but they are all so different so I guess I’m just looking for others that may have experienced this. My first kid is I affectionate, was slow to move (lots of PT) but very happy engaged and able to communicate. She still tends to be less affectionate, but asks for hugs from me, but I can tell she’s not totally comfortable with being affectionate with others. Middle two were normal snuggly kids - still are. This little guy is 11mos and delayed a bit with motor skills and no real words or babbling. He’s super engaged and has a good sense of humor and we’ve had him evaluated with a therapist who doesn’t see major flags .... BUT he’s totally not affectionate. He reminds me of my oldest so much, with the exception that she was such a good communicator. Anyone else have babies like this ? He wants to constantly be around us and engaged with his and laughs like crazy, but doesn’t want to snuggle, hug, nuzzle in etc. [/quote]
