Motherhood is one of the greatest adventures that a woman will experience but it doesn’t come without its challenges.You know you’re a mother when your child throws up and you run to catch it before it hits the rug. We grow, deliver and nourish our babies and then worry about them for the rest of our lives

How To Recognize The Early Signs of Autism

The early signs and symptoms of autism and the associated gastrointestinal problems, tantrums and adverse behaviours vary widely. Some autistic children have only mild symptoms and impairments, while others have more gut and behavioural difficulties. However, every child with an autism spectrum disorder has problems, to some degree, in the following three key areas:

Communicating, whether verbally or non-verbally.
Relating socially and interacting with others and the world around them.
Having repetitive or restricted behaviours.
The word Autism comes from the greek “autos” meaning self, and children with autism are concerned with themselves. The early symptoms can be:

A lack of responsiveness to others,
Does not make eye contact
Does not respond to being called, or to his or her name
Does not make noises to attract your attention
Does not reciprocate smiles or imitate facial expressions
Does not reach out when being picked up
Does not like to give or receive cuddles
Doesn’t call out or make basic requests.
Delayed or no age-appropriate language development
No pointing at objects or people or waving goodbye
Not following people by eye
Has repetitive behaviours such as hand flapping
Linines up toys instead of playing with them for their functions
Has an obsession with a particular video or TV program
Displays echolalia (repeating what you say)
Running close to a wall repetitively, and looking sideways at it.
Has self-stimulatory behaviours
These are only common symptoms and do not include all of the behaviours that children with Autism can display, and these are not present in all children with Autism, which is why it is called an Autism ‘Spectrum Disorder’.
