Suggestions -Asher Gomes
Hi
I am Allan Gomes. My elder son is 2 yr 9 months old and he is not concerntrading what we/his teacher said . I showed him to one of our famous doctor- Anayta Hegde in Mumbai. The doctor said it may be a sign of Autism but they are not confident. We have done genetic test as recommend by Doctor but as per the reports there is no clinically relevant CNC is observed but still I observed that concerntradion of my child is lesser than other children.
In addition to that my child is not forget anything, he is speaking on 1or 2 words, he speak more than 150 words when I show the pictures to him.
I am quite confused and scared that is he suffering in Autism. Can you plz suggest?
