Children from 6 months have shown signs of autism.

Most people only detect signs of autism when their children are 2 years old. However, there are signs that help parents detect autism in their children as early as 6 months old.

Symptoms can vary, but monitor your child's development closely and consult your doctor.

It is important to note that autism in infants may be recognized only by a lack of normal behaviors, not by abnormal behaviors.

Children with autism tend to avoid contact and show little attention to the voices of others. They do not change their posture or raise their arms when about to be picked up like other normal children. Emotional expressions are often indifferent and facial expressions are expressionless... These are signs of autism that can be detected from the age of 6 months.

Less smiling:Does your baby smile back when you give him or her a warm, happy smile? Does your baby smile to himself or herself? A 6-month-old baby may laugh heartily or show happy emotions.

Less imitation:Does your baby imitate other people's sounds or movements? Does he interact or share expressions back and forth? At 9 months, a baby who rarely imitates other people's sounds, smiles, or facial expressions may be an early sign of autism.

Early detection of autism is an urgent and important issue in many countries around the world. If autism is detected early, children will have more opportunities to become normal people and integrate into society.

Slow babbling:Is your baby babbling or cooing in his own words? Does he do this often? He should be doing this by 12 months.

No response to name calling:If a child does not respond to his or her name between 6 and 12 months of age, parents may be concerned that their child is deaf and may not realize that it could be a sign of autism. If you notice this behavior in your child, monitor him or her and consult a doctor.

Eyes are not flexible:Your child may have limited eye contact when communicating with you or a loved one. This can be an early sign of autism because eye contact is a form of communication and understanding.

Rarely attracts attention:Has your child started making noises to get your attention? If your child is not interested in this, it is a sign that he or she may have difficulty communicating and forming relationships with others.

In a study on the needs of families with autistic children conducted in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, it was found that less than 1/4 of children with autism were detected early before the age of 2, and 45% of children received intervention before the age of 3.

Lack of gestures:Does your baby boy do all sorts of things when interacting with others? Can he wave, smile, reach for things? This is a milestone your baby will reach at 9-10 months old.

Motor development delay:Keep track of your baby's motor development milestones such as rolling, crawling, and crawling.
