[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't wholly rely on a regular pediatrician to be able to catch a developmental delay. So if your annual check-up wasn't revealing, you really should go to a developmental pediatrcian. Our regular pediatrician flat out told me that my son's arm flapping was nothing to worry about, even at three years old. He has since been diagnosed as ASD and his flapping is now worse. I'm just saying that if it's a concern, get it checked by a specialist. And fwiw, my ASD son makes good eye contact and is very affectionate and engaging with family so it was hard for me to see it until the picture became clear from his pre-k teacher reporting that he didn't interact properly with other children.
