Please tell me this is a troll post.

I actually just noticed my 3 year old doing this this morning. But i think it's because she is working on her grasp at school and just realized she could move her fingers like that. Same way she touched her toes a half dozen times when she realized she could do it standing up. Kids are learning about their bodies and how they work. I wouldn't give it much thought but if it continues mention it to your ped

As with causes of autism, try to lay off the google. If you have overall concerns about your kid, get him/her assessed.

PS no judgment, I am also terrified of autism and bad about googling. But my terror is unfair and unfounded and my googling is unhelpful. It’s your job as a parent to manage your anxiety about this.

I just noticed my son crossing his fingers tonight. No other signs of autism, so I’m not sure if I need to dismiss this or schedule an appointment. Any thoughts or experience with this ?
