A mother knows. I was born with a blood cell disorder and knew my daughter would inherit it as she showed symptoms at birth. We went home and when she was 8 days old I noticed she wasn't herself (I know 8 days old and already established who she is) well anyways, I knew something was wrong at my nephews birthday party. Everyone at the party were saying things like " oh she's fine. She's a newborn. She's just tired " or " you always exaggerate" etc. I begged my mom to believe me. I feel like they took us to the er to shut me up during a birthday party. Turns out, my instincts were right. Her hemoglobin was down all the way to 3.2. She was unresponsive, not sleepy. Listen to ur guts moms, better to be safe than sorry.
@Renee Way to Go!! So easy to KEEP unkind comments to yourself, why DIDN'T YOU? Moms already carry undeserved guilt, for things they have NO control over. They need compassion, not criticism from someone who was NOT there! Folks, Filter your comments; think ANYTHING you want to, then, let it go. I'm giving MY opinion, just like YOU gave yours. Unsolicited and unwelcome, I'm sure.
@Renee I myself have a blood disorder and was not able to drive. I had to ask my mom to take me. When at first she said no, I told her that I was calling an ambulance and that's when she finally agreed to take me. Turns out she also has my blood disorder which is why her hemoglobin dropped that low.
@Deborah Ann thank you. Some people would rather assume and discriminate before knowing the details to make themselves feel better. But I don't mind at all as I don't care what people think. Esp when it comes to my babies. 🥰😍
@@ReneeWright69 Way to be an a**hole by being rude like you know everything from a small paragraph. More than likely you are someone who doesn't have children and doesn't know how exhausting and difficult even a trip to the grocery store can be for a healthy mom, let alone one with a dangerous blood condition. Maybe she doesn't drive, or doesn't trust her own condition to drive with her baby in the car. Regardless of her reasons, it isn't your place to put anything on HER!
I'm an autistic person in my 20s and I just wanted to share that I stim in some of the same ways your daughter does! Bless you for seeing your child for who she is and standing in her corner. You're a great mom
So kind of you to reassure this Momma! I wasn't aware what a "stim" was, I'm not that familiar with autism. Seems to me, having a stim, or autism is nothing to be ashamed of, and I think your comment to this Mother was so thoughtful & a kind way to reassure her. I thought her own story of "A Mother's Instinct" was amazing! I'm sure she questions herself at times, wondering if she's doing all the right things for her daughter, tho again, just her recognizing that symptom is truly amazing too. I've never seen a child have a "stim", however being a 53yr old Nana myself, who was finally diagnosed with ADD in my late 30s, I know I have a horrible fidgeting problem. I've been this way since I was as young as I can remember, but when I was young, we were just known as hyper kids, there was no diagnosis or any help for us. In grief counseling later in life, after the death of my youngest son, my fidgeting got much worse, especially thru those sessions. I was shopping one day and saw Silly Putty, and remembered loving it as a kid, so had an AHA moment, and started just playing with my putty anytime my nerves were on edge more, I was having a horribly dark, depressing day (nights were the worst- very long, very lonely) I'd just sit and play with my putty while trying to read, watch a movie,, be online, pray, meditate, (which seems counter-intuitive, but it really wasn't for me) and I DEFINITELY started taking it with me to my counseling sessions and the classes on suicide I was studying, while trying to do some volunteer work with my state's chapter of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. (Yes tragically, at just barely 21 yrs old, my son took his own life. He went missing on a Sunday evening, and when we went to meet him at work Monday, praying he'd show up, when he didn't we knew something was very, very wrong. He never missed work. We left the factory & went straight to PD to file a missing person report. He wouldn't be found for 112 days. Our worst nightmare...😥😓😰) Anyway, the putty really helped me, tho everyone thought I was so weird, in a joking, silly way...A few people thought it was brilliant and bought themselves some. And then what do you know??? Very soon after came the 1st ever "Fidget Spinners"! Tried those, they didn't do it for me as well as my putty. And NOW? They have created even Fidget Jewelry! I was just like, HEY! Someone stole my idea! WHY didn't I think of that??? lol So I'm doon getting myself, and my 16yr old granddaughter who's struggling with her own mental heslth- getting us each a fidget ring! They're very pretty, AND serve a wonderful purpose. Now, would something like that help you or this little girl that have stims? Forgive me if that's s dumb question, like I saud, just not familiar enough to know what helps and what doesn't. And I just discovered the fidgeting jewelry, so don't know how many others are aware of it? Well, I pray the VERY BEST for each one of you, And YOU MOMMA, WITH YOUR PRECIOUS LITTLE GIRL! I pray God blessed each of you, and gives you each what you need individually. I pray you're always protected and safe, always have peace and comfort in your hearts, and many loved ones, and friends to lean on when/if you need support. I'd give ANYTHING if my son had come to me when HE NEEDED a friend, a loved one to lean on for support...I would've been there in a heartbeat, and he KNEW that, that's why he didn't reach out, bc he knew I'd tie him down before I'd let him go IF I had had a clue. He gave no signs... but I could've gotten him thru what he was going thru. It will be the 10th anniversary this summer, a whole decade since I've held my babyboy in my arms, just seems unreal. And, I'm still grieving worse right now, bc I recently out my biggest support, My 1st best friend... My lifelong best friend...My beautiful, strong, amazing Mother. We just lost her 6 months ago, and we miss her terribly, as much as our son. We took care of her fulltime the last 12 yrs, so our whole world revolved around her....now her absence is so painfully obvious. Ohhh gosh kids, I'm sorry... Guess I got a little 🤏🤏 carried away! It's a lonely night... but Praise God for my husband or I'd really be lost. Ok again, God Bless Each of You, I'll say a special prayer for each of You tonight! Wishing you all the best success always! An Indiana Dragonflyy = AKA = ♥︎~KELLY~♥︎ 🙏✌💙
The thing is that lots of parents actually are. They deal with dozens of patients and parents a day and have to deal with parents saying stuff like “I can cure my child’s cancer with essential oils!” And “I demand antibiotics for my child’s viral infection!” So of course sometimes they’re going to accidentally lump in the very rare case of a 100% correct parent with the thousands of deeply incorrect parents they encounter vastly more often. I’m chronically ill and suffered from me and my parents being ignored and misdiagnosed and gaslit by multiple medical professionals from age 3 until now at 30 years old finally being diagnosed with a rare and incurable disease I was born with that we asked about multiple times over the years if it was possible I had it and we were always told no and having to catch up on decades of treatment- this means my life expectancy right now is only 58 instead of much older because of missed treatment time and I’m so much more sick than I should be if I was listened to but I try not to be angry because I know doctors deal with so many patients and are very over worked and deal with so many people who have no idea what they’re talking about etc that it’s not always their fault if they miss something.
They studied under the influence of Nazis. And their pharma overlords are the cause of 90% of these mysterious conditions. It’s waaay worse than you think. The doctors are highly indoctrinated minions at this point. But they are so sure your child should have 55 doses of vaccines from birth to college and none of that has anything to do with these types of things. And do they investigate? No. Do they want you to think they practice😅 evidence based medicine? Yes. They are mostly useless tools of the beast system. And you should not trust them.
@@Zimzum93 yes, many parents/patients in general exaggerate but always better safe than sorry. Same for your case. Absolute unproffesionalism to not even check especially if you literally suggest it. They shouldn't be surpirsed when more and more people end up mistrusting them (proffesionals) and trusting google where they find both, relevant and valid info along with not so scientifically based info. They're undermining their own authorities and expertise.
My son was stimming from his early months. We called it the hummingbird. I was convinced that something was wrong . He was evaluated several times for autism by different psychologists and therapists. Instead of an autism diagnosis, he has instead been diagnosed with sensory integration disorder, Tourette’s, and intellectual disability. He is a thriving 21-year-old. Don’t be discouraged.
My son was diagnosed with Tourette's and high functioning ASD, as well as ADHD/ADD combined. He just turned 11 and it's frustrating some days to figure out what is a tic and what's a nervous habit.
This doc helped my son improve and get over autism with his herbs .His name is Dr Oyalo on channel. My sons speech and behavior/social skill has improved perfectly using his herbs
My brother and I are both autistic, and to see parents knowing the signs early on is really heartwarming to see, I wish that more parents were like this 🖤
i had same but like her nobody believed not even a doctors,anyway am so happy and blessed with my autistic child i thank God for this perfect gift 🎁❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Flynn, you have me interested!!! I'm wondering if you wouldn't mind telling me more about you?? Like age, some sensory things you like/dislike, how you cope ?? Thankyou! 😊
On one of the short Videos, near the end, the dear little girl looks like she is getting problems with both her eyes, which, when she was younger, her eyes looked perfectly in line. I just wondered, as I used to Nurse little children ,with a few problems ,that, they needed help with , so, maybe it's my eyesight, that's not good, and, hers are fine, I hope so. Your little girl is such a sweetheart, and very, very happy dear little darling, awe.xx
My experience rather different. By the time my grandson was a year old, I suspected he was on the spectrum. My requests to have him checked out were met with hostility by my son and his socially-ambitious wife. How DARE I ?!! It was years before the head teacher at his school called in the parents for a serious talk about what was by now visible to everyone. My grandson is in his teens now, highly intelligent, and getting some support. He told me quite recently that if there was a cure for autism, he wouldn't undergo it. "Don't know, Grandad - would I still be ME?"
My doctor said, "He's a boy..that's just what they do." My son stopped hitting his milestones and very quickly regressed. I begged for him to be seen by a specialist to no avail. Finally, I called my regional health department. They sent out a public nurse to "observe" my son & agreed that he was displaying symptoms of autism and set up all the necessary assessments. He was finally diagnosed with Classic Autism at age 5. Always trust your gut and ALWAYS get a second opinion!
@Elas s We live in Canada. Each region in each Province has their own public health department. Honestly, I'm not sure how it works in the US with privatized health care, but if your state has a health department I would certainly look into it to find out if they offer supports for medical diagnosis'.
Trust your instinct. And please get your daughters vision checked. My daughter had a slight turn in 1 eye. The doctor said 'nothing to worry about'. When we were at the opticians having my sons eyes tested she begged to get hers done too. Turns out the 'lazy eye' had almost turned off vision in that eye and she was extremely long sighted. Specialist said a few more months and vision in that eye would never have been able to be corrected. Both my sons with the benefit of hindsight are mildly autistic and ADHD. It seems ADHA is genetic, I've passed it on to all 3 of my children. With the passage of time knowledge is increasing rapidly.
@@elass7325 Early 2000s, neighbor got everything she needed for her son's difficulties learning. The local School District (California) is required to finance special testing/assessments to help in the diagnosis of ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorders, other learning disabilities (such as dyslexia). They're required to place the child in classes that work with him for better learning, as well as ongoing assessment. This may be associated with the Office of Public Health of our County/State. (This may have only been the neighboring School Dist, where she had her son in preschool, which was run by that County. That meant the kid had access to every advantage.) Moral of the story: ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF! Start with your County Public Health Dept, and they can guide you to programs your child is eligible for.
I'm 36 and I stim like this. It gets less aggressive over time and can be physically uncomfortable when trying to suppress it. You got this though momma! Trust your instincts and be there for her. Your love will be what helps her through anything
Stimming in and of itself is not harmful (as long a not physically damaging). So many try to stop littles from doing what their body and mind tells them to do. This little girl looks happy with her coping tool of stimming
My doctor told me once that he never argues with a mother because he realized after watching his wife raise three kids, that a mothers instinct is real. Yet one time at a hospital I had a doctor not believe me, I said, I won’t be the one to return. It will be my husband, and you will regret it. Later that night, my son did get sicker, and it was my husband who took him… they did regret it
Same with taking care of any family, I think. I knew my mother was having liver problems and she was about to nose-dive. The ER doc disagreed but said if we insisted she be admitted and her numbers didn’t show a need for it by morning, we would have to pay out of pocket for the hospitalization. No problem. We insisted, numbers tanked out in a few hours, we didn’t have to pay. BELIEVE US. Some of us REALLY know when stuff is wrong.
Somehow i am not able to believe doctors but no option is there.. when i was struggling to take a step dr told me i was imagining there is nothing wrong.. it was a simple vit d test but no one told me to take it even during pregnancy gynecologist just said its very common to struggle during pregnancy. My stitches were not cured after 5 months but dr said why was i making an issue for little pain. It was hard to make her believe my pain then got tested n vit d was almost nil then she said if i dont take medicine even for 1 day ny bones would get broken to even stand.. its been 3 years still not recovered enough. Doctors will only consider when we lose everything and visibly lose a part in body
My daughter has autism too and she's 23 now, non verbal. She still dances to the beat of her own drum and because of her, I get to, too. Being different is what makes ppl so beautiful. I wouldn't change a thing and I'm so grateful that I was gifted such a beautiful angel. God knew what we both needed and it was each other. Stay safe and always blessed, cherish the simple things ❤️🙏
@@sparkles999rose2it makes a huge difference! Support in kinder and school can help the kids integrate with others and learn things that don't come naturally to them with interactions with others ie. How to understand facial expressions and how to express themselves when things are overwhelming and taylor their experience with headphones to help all the noise stimulation or a wobble cushion for mat time just to name a few.
@@sparkles999rose2I'm confused too.... I'm autistic and have learned to accept myself. yes, I may be different but I'm not hurting anyone. The only "intervention" I would think some autistic people would need is If they get overwhelmed and hurt themselves physically, like hitting their head etc. It's sad that so many parents still think that autism spectrum disorder is some horrible defect that should be "fixed" and they especially hate it when the autism is visible in their kids (like visible stimming etc.)
@@Moonless87 true though I think serious research need to be done on the causes of autism but the pharmaceutical industry doesn’t allow the subject to be properly researched. If you’re great with autism imagine how great you’d be without it, but they don’t want a cure they push acceptance
I knew when my son was first born. I took him to the doctor SO many times but he would never diagnose him. Finally when he was 14 years old they finally listened and sent him to a specialist. He was diagnosed with autism at 14. We missed so many possible resources and interventions that would have made his life so much easier. Go with your gut and never give up!
My daughter is 22 and they refuse to listen for years. We took her to a new doctor recently. What did he say?? Some people are just weird. In that 15 minute visit he determined she was not autistic. Just "weird". Took her to someone else AGAIN. She scored pretty high on the autism accessments. Not just " weird".
@@gemstorm16 Thank you. It's been pretty rough trying to figure out which meds work for him and what resources are helping and which are hindering. But we're on the right path now!!
They know what is from you first complaint. But they don't what to liable for the shot they get when they are months old. Image telling you it's in your mind. Shame on them
The video of her stimming as an older child, at the end, is a replica of how my Son was at that age. Trust your gut; you know your child better than anyone and dont let anyone feel you're overreacting. My Son has autism but he's now 21 and he's working and has just started to go out and socualising. He was nonverbal until the age of seven and his speech is coming on amazingly now because of his job and the incredible team of people he works with, who gave him a chance 🙌🙏🏻
My son has been diagnosed of autism spectrum since childhood and has battled with it all his life. But recently taking Dr Oyalo herbs have helped him get rid of it completely, his speech is vital and his social skill is perfect
My son will be 2 next month. When he was a baby, he would do this and when now he does the flapping arms too. He was diagnosed with autism a month ago. Doctors said it was just baby being baby until he went to his 18m check up and we were told otherwise. He scored 19 on the autism chart. He started therapy last month and he has improved so much. He is even talking a few words and already can eat on his own and even getting potty trained. As a parent, always trust your gut
@@butterfliesinsidemj That’s a terrifying thought! Don’t jab babies!! Too many unknowns! It is NOT a vaccine. I am not an anti-vaxxer but I am definitely anti-Covid jabs especially for infants who are at very low risk.
We mothers really feel when there is something different with our children, I have an 8-year-old boy and since he was born he never stopped moving (he never stopped), he grew up and was always too active, to make a long story short...it was Diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, he is now on medication and in a special education program, and I see his improvement in all aspects! and MOMS never doubt his sixth sense!!!

The most critical and important (and useful) lesson I learned in my 20 years as an EMT, then Paramedic, was to NEVER blow off or ignore peoples subjective complaints. A proper assessment can almost always ferret out the BS and overreactions, but you NEVER ignore a parent’s concerns out of hand like a lot of medical practitioners do. Especially parents of sick kids…most of the time, they know their child’s disease at least as well as any specialist. The care some of those people provide their little ones would knock your socks off. Parents…NEVER EVER EVER ignore your gut. If you think there is even the remotest chance that something is wrong with your little one, you fight and advocate for your child like their life depends on it, because it often DOES. My heart goes out to anyone who has been ignored or neglected by the very professionals we are told to trust. I have been on both sides of that mess, both as a neglected patient and even worse, as an arrogant and dismissive practitioner and care provider. I will never let myself forget how I likely hurt people who relied on me because I thought I knew better. That failure early in my career drove me to be the best I could be in the last 18 years on the job. Medical practitioners are human. They are not infallible. HOLD. THEM. ACCOUNTABLE.
That takes a LOT of courage to admit your past mistakes, apologize for your arrogance, and to realize you’re an imperfect human being, just as GOD created us all. The fact that you changed your life and now are being the very best doctor, and MAN, you can be is admirable. God bless you Dr. ❤ Not many can do the honest soul searching it takes to change. ESPECIALLY doctors (no offense towards you whatsoever). I’ve just had my fill, being a disabled person with CRPS, DDD, etc. and because I NEED the “wrong kind of pain medicines”, I’ve been treated horribly. It’s disgraceful how pain patients are being mistreated, judged, blamed for the entire “opioid epidemic”, etc. #OpenBordersCartels #FENTANYLISTHECRISIS #DontPunishPain
It's part of growing up. Until you've experienced first hand those nuance of gut instinct, a parent knows, etc. ego gets in the way. Being young, in general, ego gets in the way. But ego gives us the courage to do some things we end up doing & that can be needed at the time too... We just have to embrace our young cringy self & enjoy the wisdom of today.
I am a children psychologist. I just wrote a similar comment( only that I am not a native English speaker and you expleined it much better). Parents know best. And professionals tend to be arrogant because we feel intimidated, like if we admit parents knew or observed something we didn't it means we are not good. And it is the opposite! Parents and professionals are a team!!

My step-daughter asked me if I had any advice for her with getting ready to have her first baby. I told her “Always, always trust in your gut feelings about your baby”. A mothers gut is never wrong.
Yes, but even if it is, better she be wrong than a Dr. It's worth risking looking foolish or overprotective. Never let a Dr dismiss you & your gut right off the bat, get another opinion if possible.
I disagree. I've had motherly instincts that turned out to be nothing plenty of times. But what's important is to not ignore when you think something is wrong because it's better to get it checked out and be nothing than to ignore it and it be something.
I disagree that a mother's gut feeling is never wrong. I suffered with postpartum anxiety and my "gut" feeling was majority of the time incorrect. Everything was worse case scenario. It is good to always ask a professional if you have concerns, but not everyone's "gut feeling" is correct.
Always trust your instincts, my daughter is 5 and was diagnosed with autism in Nov last year, I took her for assessments from the age of 1 because I knew, don't give up 🥰💗
My nieces daughter is autistic too. I wonder what the correlation is because I hear more and more about autism. This is scary. What our food supply, vaccines, medicines, and so on and so on. God help us and have mercy. 😘🙏🏻
Please if uncomfortablewith 1st opinion,acquire a second then a specialist. You are there to advocate for the best interest of the child. There are no obligations / ties to the MD.
@@janetteaguirre-terry2986 I know what ypu are saying. Now it's more common for children to be diagnosed with Autism. I took a lot of "safe" medications to keep my heart from stopping during pregnancy and just to make it out alive during delivery was a miracle. I think all those prenatal pills ingredients need to be reevaluated
@@YennP I agree and I'm so sorry that you had to take meds for your heart. My daughter is due 4/2023 and we're in a new state small place I have to be her advocate in the delivery room. We're from San Diego and wish that when we're having the last baby show she has the baby there. Prescott, AZ I don't trust these small hospitals. Anyways sending you love, faith, peace, joy, good health for you and your family, my friend. 🙏🏻😘
But I think you are missing the mom's point. She's trying to educate other parents. Trust your gut. Speak up. It may be cute as a baby, but not at age 10. Early diagnosis and intervention is key.

@@ddigiorgio8438Stimming is a self soothing technique that is more common and repetitive in autistic and other neurodivergent folks. It's not a bad thing, and it doesn't have to be "cute" to justify it's presence. Don't stop your kid from stimming, you're doing them very real harm because they need to.
Cute? Acceptance of spectrum disorder is one thing, but fetishizing it? This "celebrating" of the divergent is getting just plain weird. It seems very condescending, imho.
I’m autistic and pregnant, it’s 50/50 if my baby will be autistic and I don’t care if they are or aren’t they will be extremely loved either way . I bought a home by myself at 21 no parents help ( not many neurotypicals can do that now) , I’m a business owner ( I employed people to help with the aspects I can’t cope with well ) and I’m starting a family and getting married . To anyone who is , please don’t be scared of autism or think it means everything is over , because we can live fulfilling life’s 🙏🏻✨
@@raestanich7791 thank you ! We may take unconventional paths to our own success but it doesn’t mean we can’t get to the same destination in our own way 🙏🏻✨
My youngest baby also stemmed with her hands non-stop. There was just something different about this baby and I couldn't put my finger on it. We finally figured it out when she was in high school. She's 23 now and her stemming is pacing now. I wouldn't change 1 thing about her. What makes her different from others is what makes her, her. She's smart, kind and perfect! ❤
My husband still paces at 56. My daughter is ADHD and autistic but high on the spectrum. She will never have a normal life. She cannot self start hardly anything. School was horrible!!!! She’s 18 and has a long way to go. Has other issues on top . Don’t know why I felt compelled to write. I had and have support. Good luck to you and yours. One day HOPEFULLY there will be a damn cure !!!!!
My son did the hand and feet only when he was happy or excited he is 16 now still dose it on occasions and he dose the pacing when bored or he just waiting for us
@@evilsteven5201 Im severely ADHD, and as much as it is frustrating, shameful & exhausting at times, ADHD is also my superpower. I can hyperfocus on my artwork like nobody's business. It just has to be something that my brain wants to do. But I have zero self starter skills as well. So it's about finding what works to improve our weaknesses, while playing to our strengths. I ask friends and family to help me be accountable to them if I have to get something done, that helps a lot. These disorders are both a challenge and a gift. I wouldn't rush too quickly to the assumption that the only thing needed is a cure. I would say what we need most are effective coping strategies and tools that really help when we are struggling. But we all have our own personal challenges in this life. They make us who were are, and that's ok. I wouldn't trade in my ADHD to be "normal", because its a part of who I am and it makes me different and special. Without it I would just be like everybody else, and I like being weird because personally i think it's just more interesting. And like I said, it can be a superpower at times. Autism can come with gifts as well... like heightened intelligence and a unique ability to focus learning toward specific topics, which can make some people unparalleled experts in a particular field. Just keep your mind open. Teenage years are the hardest, but it gets easier. And it will for your daughter too.
@@CaMiKat thank you so much for your comment! Many people need to realise that Autism is not a disease that needs to be cured! Being Autistic means someone is built different from Neurotypical people-(regular, non Autistic people). I know being Autistic comes with a lot of challenges but like you I have noticed the many gifts some Autistic people have, some can do things Neurotypicals can't! More awareness and education about Autism and Neurodiversity is need in society. ALL People, regardless of ability, need to be celebrated and valued, not one looked down on while another is put on a pedestal. We are all valuable and all bring something unique and wonderful to the table, some of us more than others, either way WE ARE ALL VALUABLE!
My daughter did this as a baby and toddler. She DID grow out of it. She’s a teen now and an honor roll student. She’s kind, loving, self-aware, empathic, and extremely bright. ⭐️ ❤
She could also still be autistic. Being autistic doesn’t prevent being kind, loving, self-aware, empathic, or bright. I’m twice-exceptional (gifted AND AuDHD), so everyone assumed I was “too smart” to be disabled. I developed subtle stims, because stimming in natural, obvious ways like this gets bad reactions from others. Other signs include sensory hyper/hypo-sensitivities, poor physical coordination, special interests (narrow topics the person tries to learn everything about and never seems to get enough of), executive dysfunction/ADHD, specific learning disabilities (like dyslexia or dyscalculia), and social awkwardness or anxiety. 🤔
My niece did this with her hands for many years, and grew out of it. She was evaluated by a psychologist, and found to be a genius with a high IQ. The doctors determined that she just had a lot of excitement and no other way to express it than flapping her hands for a lack of a better word.
SO WAS MY GRANDSON AND EVERYONE THINKS THATS WHY HE IS NOT AUTISTIC BUT HE IS AND HE IS ALL THE THINGS U MENTIONED AND MORE BUT HE THRIVES BECAUSE WE RECONIZE IT AND WE GET IT AND HE HAS A SAFE PLACE TO LAND

Just because you don't stim doesn't mean you're not autistic... many of us "high functioning" autistic individuals are high masking, aka, we have learned how to "act normal" so we could try to fit ourselves into this neurotypical society at the extreme cost to our mental health... I am one such person who "grew out" of this behavior in order to survive socially, and do you want to know what came out of it? A severe case of C-PTSD dating all the way back to when I was 6 years of age, when I started becoming aware of my social surroundings, and began trying to hide any kind of noticeable stims so I wouldn't get bullied so hard. This caused me to withdraw into myself while on the outside looking perfectly fine... this has wrecked and completely stunted my ability to properly and healthfully function in adulthood. Don't do what my parents did... don't dismiss the possibility of autism just because they "grew out" of the repetitive behaviors... don't do that to your children.
We were told by so called professionals that our son was not autistic. He'd talk when he was ready. Thank God our old country doctor listened and referred us to boy's town pediatric. The specialist made a very easy diagnosis. He was 4 then. He is 12 now and minimally verbal but I couldn't love him more because his stims make him who he is and he is so sweet and loving and yes, autistic, but to us he's beautiful and perfect. ❤❤❤
I knew a neighbor baby girl with these exact motions. EXACT. She always struggled in school but was an amazing gymnast and dancer and athlete. She went on to become a hair stylist. She speaks quite well.
I cannot support you enough in this! Parents trust your instincts! It took until my child was a teenager to confirm suspicions I had since he was a toddler! You are not crazy or paranoid. Thank you for sharing this!
@@happyhandswith_hallie also be empowered to say no to these BULLY Dr's and nurses who insist you have to inject your babies with poison every few months.
I had an argument with some people about stemming. And the one was adamant saying that it could be typical baby/ toddler behaviour. I had to tell them repeatedly that you know your child better than anyone else, you can tell if something doesn't sit well with you and is concerning accompanied with the stemming. That's why I felt I needed to have my son checked out when he wad about 2 yrs old and he is on the spectrum. But I'm glad we jumped in early to get him the necessary help
When I get anxious or worried my stimming increases. I am almost 23 and was diagnosed with autism in high school. Your daughter is beautiful and follow your instincts to care for her. That's what my mom did with me. I promise it is worth it. ♥️
I’m in highschool and i’m looking to get tested for autism. Ive done extensive research and i’ve got a couple friends who are professionally diagnosed. they’ve been helping me. I just wanted to ask if you have any advice? I don’t know how to talk to my parents about it and all i want is to understand myself better and rule out possibilities. it’s ok if you can’t help
@@sharksaresupercooldude I will say it took me two years to get my parents to listen enough to believe me. Try to remember that it’s a lot to take in for them and doesn’t look as clear and simple to them as it does to you. Especially if they don’t know much about high functioning autism or if you’re afab.
@@sharksaresupercooldude As far as devices go I use sound canceling headphones and a computer for all school work. Another thing might be learning how to crochet or knit it can help with anxiety. If you have anymore questions feel free to ask.
My son is the light of my life! Am so happy I had him almost at 40. He has autism - lower to moderate spectrum. I knew right away, but he was not diagnosed until 2yrs old. I always knew he was autistic. Sometimes, people think we are reading too much into what is not happening to them; often, causing delays to any home services. We need to get second opinions because some professionals may resist change or lack the knowledge regarding new conditions. Sameness and predictable patterns work for us! Respecting his unique personality (we all have one) makes for a peaceful coexistence. I ❤ my son as he is, and ignore any negative comments !
My son has been diagnosed of autism spectrum since childhood and has battled with it all his life. But recently taking Dr Oyalo herbs have helped him get rid of it completely, his speech is vital and his social skill is perfect
My grand daughter has autism. It's her world , I'm just living in it. I love her so much. Got a grandson who has tourrettes he has the same movements as this sweet little baby but he doesn't have autism.
I met a young man while walking and we chatted for awhile. He told me he had tourettes. He would gulp when he got the least emotional. I had not noticed and told him not to control it on my account. He was an amazing teenager. His dad has it too.
My youngest grandson started these hand actions at around 3, and was just diagnosed with torettes at Christmas, he's 6 1/2. His dad has torettes. My other grandson did this when he was preschool age, but he grew out of it.
When I was around 8 I started getting migraine headaches & nausea that caused me to vomit. My pediatrician told my mom I was being emotional this continued until my mom found me on the bathroom floor having a granmaul siezure. After a trip to the ER & several tests they found a brain tumor. I was 13 by then. Pediatrician don't always know, parents listen to your kids, especially when they are sick.
My son was diagnosed Autistic with Asperger's when he was 4. When he started putting his toys in a perfect line (and heaven forbid if you accidentally bumped one of them just a teeny, tiny bit....) and doing repetitive movements with his arms and legs (flapping and "walking in place" movements) his father and I decided to do some digging into what it could be and everything pointed to autism so I brought my concern to his PCP and she sent a referral to have him evaluated and have an assessment done. When the lady was done with her evaluation she turned and told me. I had no major reaction like one typically would. I just looked at her and she says "you don't seem surprised." I replied with "im not. His father and I have been doing some researching and everything pointed to autism. I'm just glad we have a proper diagnosis." The sooner a child is evaluated, the sooner they can recieve the therapy they need to live a successful life. Advocate for your child, because they may not have the voice to speak up for themselves. I love my son dearly and have been very forward with his school about him and his needs, which also includes a dairy allergy!
Both my youngest (both my boys) are on the spectrum. I knew with them both that something wasn't typical. I have two older children (both girls) whom are typical. God knows I wouldn't change a thing. I love all my children the same, they all 4 have taught me so many different things about this life we live. I'm their biggest cheerleader! 🙏🏼
I have 2 with Asperger's and 1 with more classic Autism, and and other with ADD, two of them also have ADHD. I never thought anything of it when I was in the middle of caring for, teaching and leading them all, but now I can appreciate the stress, difficulties of everything that goes along with being your kids advocate to the world.
She's special. From personal experience. She knows that this is a comfort to her. The moment she is told that "something is wrong with it" by society, teacher's and other children.. the moment it could affect her. You seem to be on the right track.
Yes. This ⬆️. I am a female on the spectrum. I lived three decades not knowing why I felt so different. At the end of the day we are all different with strengths and weaknesses. My best advice is to encourage parents to help their child develop their healthy special interests and don’t try to ‘fix them’. Also, I recommend getting involved in and oriented with autism organizations that are supported/backed by and give voices to actual autistic individuals.
Mother’s instinct always go with that! I don’t know if it’s just nature or the physical bond with your child but as the saying goes, “ Mother always knows best” My son had a speech disfluency that led to other learning delays. My husband said he was fine but I knew…now he attends Oklahoma State University. He wants to be a teacher! ❤
After 12 years of concern my son's PCP finally heard me. Our adopted son was diagnosed with FASD and I was diagnosed with PTSD from all the trauma and shame I experienced prior to his diagnosis. If parents can't get people to listen, go find someone who will listen. His diagnosis has changed our world for the better! ❤️
As a person with a disability, I want parents to understand, having a disability is tough and it's not always the easiest life for all but it's not a death sentence. I am 33 years old, I am living in my own, getting ready to get married to the most caring, kindest, understanding and most handsome man I've ever met. I am currently not working but I am a stay at home wife technically and I am happy. In my ,33 years I've overcome every obstacle that came by way and I've done it with beautiful resilience. Your life will not always be easy being disabled and raising a child with a disability will not be easy but be patient with us, notice the little things, let us feel we are just as worthy love and grace as any other child. Just because other milestones are happening to other kids doesn't mean it won't happen for yours, it may take a little longer and just because you see other kids going to good colleges and your son is learning to cook and clean, that's okay. having disabilities can come with it's insecurities like feeling like you aren't smart enough, good enough or like if only you weren't like your peers your parents might be proud. Please always be kind and reassuring to your kids and let them know how proud you are and how they are just as worthy of pride as their peers. good luck. No one's disability needs to be fixed or cured, it needs to be understood
I love seeing young autistic people being embraced and actually able to be themselves because I never had that opportunity as a young child and now the masking is ingrained into me
My bff’s son stimmed like that and also was speech delayed. I suggested he might have autism and she denied it. 13 years later, he was diagnosed with autism.
Officially diagnosed ADHD at 32. Getting officially diagnosed with Autism is a waste of my time and money at this point because it's not going to magically make my life better and there's no treatment for it. I've always silently fidgeted with my toes. Especially in k-12. I fidgetted with my mechanical pencils, bit my nails, skin picking of pimples and scabs. I'm glad you're advocating for her. A part of me wishes I had known back in my childhood, but research around women and girls with ADHD and/or Autism wasn't prevalent then. now, I fidget/abuse the pop socket on the back of my phone.
My 6-year-old daughter is autistic and she stimms exactly like that. She focuses her eyes so much that sometimes they cross, she locks her legs and she scrunches up her toes and when she does that I know she just really likes what she's looking at. Sometimes I have to tell people that she's not hurt or sad because that's the first thing that they think. She's actually very happy ♥️
I have a 16 year old daughter who does the same exact thing! She's never been diagnosed but, I believe she has it to some degree and has had it since she was a baby!
So another words it's she's acting content, you see it but others don't. I think that bothers you doesn't it? Don't do that to yourself 😔 how old is your daughter and when was she diagnosed
Mama always listen to yourself. No one knows your baby better than you. And listen to grandma when she tells you to never back down to protect your kids.
My son has been diagnosed of autism spectrum since childhood and has battled with it all his life. But recently taking Dr Oyalo herbs have helped him get rid of it completely, his speech is vital and his social skill is perfect
She's absolutely perfect just for who she is. I was told that babies couldn't have any of those things and I was noticing them at a very early age. And it came out that it was.
I had the same situation with my daughter, I noted that she doesn’t growing and took many year to change her size in her clothes but the doctor said Nothing is wrong with her🤷🏻♀️, unfortunately in nine year old no one medical told me she had TURNER SYNDROME AND I WAS RIGHT about her, I felt it, , I knew it, something not right with her. Believe in your feelings if something is bad in your children insists with the doctor.
Parents, especially Mommas should listen to their Gut!! I KNEW my son was Autistic, yet Drs kept telling my Different things…ADHD, Anxiety, etc. Finally got him to a Specialist at 15 & Whatdya Know..I Was RIGHT. So many of his Formative Years were Much Harder than they needed to be.
This is a very valuable video and could be a big help to many. I worked with children with autism for many years and absolutely would have seen that as different than typical “baby movements” ❤️ you know your child.
I'm 19 I've been stimmin my whole life 😅 I thought maybe I was just odd or something and sometimes I do it without realizing but I'm not diagnosed with anything :)I mean I am not diagnosed with autism .... though I do have adhd and apd and memory problems 😂😢😅
Look at her go!! Please let the child stim. Even if it gets you judgement from friends and peers, even if she gets judgement from them... let her be herself. A few moments of a little social embarrassment is nothing compared to a lifetime of deep and complex emotional trauma that could take decades to unravel because she was left unable to express herself or regulate her emotions. Don't force her into anything that will cause her distress or try to make her act "normal"... she's perfect just the way she is. Please spread awareness.
Awwww.....It's beyond tough, as a mom, when you know & have that sick, intense gut feeling that something is not right...but you're told "don't worry!" But you knew all along... I'm so sorry the doctors didn't take your concerns seriously. 😥 God bless you & your beautiful little girl always. ❤
They told us that our daughter had a very large head., that I would loose the pregnancy, that we should let them take her. She has always been healthy, with a normal size head and has her Masters in Micro biology and is a Fourth year PhD student. You decide for you and your baby.
Not to put down your concerns but that could be ADHD I’m 14 and do that ADHD and autism share a lot of symptoms maybe try getting her evaluated for ADHD
We have tried to have her eyes checked. She won’t let anymore near her. She is under assessment for autism and has a diagnosis of sensory processing difficulties. Xx
@@annebrunner9698 are you serious??? Have you ever tried checking a toddler's eyes? My son has had 3 eye surgeries and I assure you, holding them down is NOT effective. Jesus.
@@jlcollins7673 idk what’s in your strength because yes I’ve easily held 2 year olds down to suck all his boogers out. Held a 3 year old to give him medicine. And even a 5 year old to put underwear on him. So yes it’s possible and the baby obviously won’t like it but you are the adult with way more strength and when something is needed or an emergency I can hold the child down
Wrong? As the momma of two beautiful autistic kiddos and one lil guy who may or may not have it, there’s NOTHING “wrong” with my children!!!!!! The child is happy, obviously healthy and seems to be thriving. So what if she’s not typical in how her brain works? That means there’s something “wrong” with her?!?! My kids are the most special, clever, loving children on the planet and there’s not a damn thing wrong about them!!! Not being like everybody else isn’t a bad thing. And there’s SO much worse that baby could have been diagnosed with. I’m sure parents of kids laying in hospitals all over the world with incurable cancer or horrific genetic diseases etc who would KILL to be able to trade that out for their child having autism instead!
@@armstrongdhawan6338I understand you. I'm an autistic adult and people act like it's something to be ashamed of. It's very disgusting how people are just because someone is different.
@@riri3167"normal" doesn't exist. We're on a giant spinning rock in space, nothing is normal. Who is to say autistic people aren't the normal ones and you're the one that is not normal? Just say different next time, you don't seem to be very educated on the topic of autism. And autism speaks doesn't count, they're a hate group. Not even a single member of their board is on the spectrum. Albert Einstein was autistic, autistic people are fully aware when you call them something like "not normal". That's just rude. We're not deaf or blind or stupid. Would you like it if some stranger came up to you and told you that you're "not normal"? No you wouldn't. We don't either.
A parent usually knows when something is unusual with their child, regardless of if a Dr. sees it yet. Often the child is just to young to be diagnosed according to guidelines so the Dr doesnt even bother looking into it until the child is older.
Totally agree . Similar situation with our son . Our paediatric doctor agreed he had autism after evaluating him over period of time . But his school would not agree until he was 12 so he had no support regarding his condition until then . But we knew ..
My daughter was diagnosed with ADHD and a spatial skills disorder at 5 years old. We received zero school support until middle school. It broke my heart that my daughter was obligated to attend summer school every year she was in elementary school because she struggled with math. She exceeded everywhere else. Those 6 years meant long nights every night as I coached her. I learned I could use kinesthetics to teach her to add, subtract, divide and multiply. In middle school her first math teacher called me within a couple of weeks and advised that she believed my daughter had dyscalculia. I explained the spatial skills diagnosis/ ADHD at age 5 and the fact that we were denied special accomodations even with the recommendation of her pediatrician, therapist and psychiatrist. That middle school math teacher moved heaven and earth and used that original recommendation for services to get my daughter accomodations for math. My daughter graduated high school having passed all her math classes as well as chemistry. The accomodations she received like being able to write out the working out and answers to math questions in essay form (she used her right brain rather than left brain for math) made all the difference. I don't know why it was so hard to get math accommodations in elementary school but it left my daughter believing she was stupid when she's exceptionally bright. Middle School and High School were so much easier for her and she regained some of the confidence she had lost in elementary school. BTW they used the justification that my daughter was reading at high school level by 2nd grade and received A+ in all other classes to deny her accomodations.
I am so so sorry. My grandson was diagnosed at 2. 😢 he is in a daycare for lack of better word but it is a one on one theory for 40 hours per week. Sending you a big virtual hig
Your video made me cry because this was my son 20 years ago. I didn't know what stimming was back then and had him tested for autism. They said since he learned how to talk, crawl, walk, etc, at the normal age range that he was not. They diagnosed him with terrets, ocd and anxiety disorder. He's 23 now and doesn't stim nearly as often, but I still believe he was misdiagnosed.
Since the final taking of your herbs, my son has been speaking well and responding to his name Thank you Dr Oyalo for saving my son with your herbs. I’m so happy to share this good news
not same issues, same circumstances, told by a few doctors it was new mom syndrome, even for my second kid. i was right they were wrong. i hold doctors in low esteem now till they prove me wrong.
I was disregarded over and over for this same thing! My sons doctor thought it was just and I will quote "a normal baby thing" (we switched right after that) because this momma knew there was more going on. (There was more going on other than the hand flapping) Finally found an amazing pediatrician that listened to me and watched my son. We left that appointment with a diagnosis. My son is now 17. Thriving like crazy!!!! He is soo smart and able and kicking soo much butt in life! Find the best early interventionist and never settle for something you don't feel is right. Find those second opinions. We found speech and OT and that was also God sent! I've been in the community now for 17 almost 18 years and there are soo many mommas and daddys too that are phenomenal help and soo compassionate! ❤ God bless you and your beautiful girl!
You’re doing great momma, it’s hard when they’re younger but as an autistic person I can promise you that it gets better ❤ she’s not wrong just different and she’ll have a full life and because you saw it early she’ll have all the support she’ll need to grow. Stay strong💪🏻
I have been a childcare provider for over 25 years, if I saw stems like that in a child that young, I would mention it to a parent; most children don't exhibit those motions in that way, it would have raised my attention too
I understand hand flapping. I'm a 45 year old aspie. This child is so bright and beautiful. You can absolutely see how smart she is, sense the support she knows she has, and to that, and this is the best one to me, see that she KNOWS, she is COMFORTABLE & CONFIDENT.
My daughter is 17 now and I still wonder deep in my heart if she might be on the spectrum. She and I have talked about it, and if she is she’s very high function, but I can just…. Tell. Idk. She had several stims as a baby. Hand flapping, leg kicks, playing with her ears, sensitivity to light and sound. Her pediatrician was the first to bring it up but she didn’t hit enough of the markers to ever be referred for formal evaluation. She did eventually stop the hand flaps and some of her other stims but still has a couple, still has sensory issues (especially with clothing and her bedding), and just little quirks that even she is like “mom is this a symptom? Is this normal?” She does excellent in school, is very social and “normal” on the surface but there is just something in my heart that tells me she’s somewhere on that spectrum.
My middle child would do that constantly. As he grew older, that stemming would decreased but he was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 6. The movements stopped completely by the time he was a toddler. He was placed on a very small amount of stimulants for the treatment of the ADHD to help with concentration and focusing. He's 21 years old, extremely smart, hard worker, responsible, respectful, educated...what el I could ever say about my very special child. I wouldn't change a bit about him. His randomness is so unique that it would make you smile and laugh out if nothing ❤
I had actually worked as a nurse for Autistic children that were not able to take care of themselves in any way.. Then I got pregnant, my husband and I sooo happy, and within the first week I could just tell.. everyone literally every family member said 'no he'll outgrow that'.. well he's now 19 years old and his quirks are who he is and thats perfect. And I can promise you that you'll figure out the same thing at your pace. ❤❤❤ to all of you and your beautiful family.
Awww honestly. Thank you. This means so much. I do this because when I had all these concerns I couldn’t find anyone who did all the flapping and kicking like Hallie. I want to help others feel less alone and know the power of the parent gut instinct ❤️
Yup. Mine too. Doctors & early childhood development “experts” brushed me off and refused to test him for autism. Then there was a pandemic and no one would see him; we couldn’t get services. Now he’s finally seen for speech therapy but it’s been a long, long, difficult road. It will be an uphill battle his whole life.
Mother's know when their child has an issue physically, mentally, emotionally, neurologically and ever other way. We carried that child inside of us for nine months. We know our babies before they even get here 💯❤️🥰
I despise when the “professionals” disregard a mothers instincts. Happened to me too, and their dismissal lead to my son being diagnosed with failure to thrive. Even then, they continued to ignore me. Turned out, my son had Cystic Fibrosis and nearly died because of the professionals. I had learned along the way that I was a carrier for CF and I begged them to test my son. They ignored me and tested him for every other disorder under the sun. Finally I learned how to fiercely demand things - and FINALLY they tested him. By then, it was nearly too late - he was quite literally starving to death. I found my voice - don’t be afraid to raise cane if you need to. You are your child’s best advocate. ❤
Wenn dieser Gendefekt, in der Familie zu finden ist,sollte man sein Kind sofort darauf untersuchen lassen. Aber diese kleinen Menschenkinder können, wenn man es rechtzeitig bemerkt, sehr gut behandelt werden.Ich habe mit solchen Kindern gearbeitet, sie können sich zu zauberhaften Menschen entwickeln.
My son does,he is 37, expecting their first born .. ❤️ He stopped sounding after the whooping cough med,he had a bad reaction.. later speech therapy,occupational therapy .. these kids have such deep interests ❤️
A mother knows. I was born with a blood cell disorder and knew my daughter would inherit it as she showed symptoms at birth. We went home and when she was 8 days old I noticed she wasn't herself (I know 8 days old and already established who she is) well anyways, I knew something was wrong at my nephews birthday party. Everyone at the party were saying things like " oh she's fine. She's a newborn. She's just tired " or " you always exaggerate" etc. I begged my mom to believe me. I feel like they took us to the er to shut me up during a birthday party. Turns out, my instincts were right. Her hemoglobin was down all the way to 3.2. She was unresponsive, not sleepy. Listen to ur guts moms, better to be safe than sorry.
@Renee Way to Go!! So easy to KEEP unkind comments to yourself, why DIDN'T YOU? Moms already carry undeserved guilt, for things they have NO control over. They need compassion, not criticism from someone who was NOT there! Folks, Filter your comments; think ANYTHING you want to, then, let it go. I'm giving MY opinion, just like YOU gave yours. Unsolicited and unwelcome, I'm sure.
@Renee I myself have a blood disorder and was not able to drive. I had to ask my mom to take me. When at first she said no, I told her that I was calling an ambulance and that's when she finally agreed to take me. Turns out she also has my blood disorder which is why her hemoglobin dropped that low.
@Deborah Ann thank you. Some people would rather assume and discriminate before knowing the details to make themselves feel better. But I don't mind at all as I don't care what people think. Esp when it comes to my babies. 🥰😍
@@ReneeWright69 Way to be an a**hole by being rude like you know everything from a small paragraph. More than likely you are someone who doesn't have children and doesn't know how exhausting and difficult even a trip to the grocery store can be for a healthy mom, let alone one with a dangerous blood condition. Maybe she doesn't drive, or doesn't trust her own condition to drive with her baby in the car. Regardless of her reasons, it isn't your place to put anything on HER!
@@ReneeWright69 Wow you really went ahead and made your own shity assumptions and then were an a** about it. Go to therapy.
I'm an autistic person in my 20s and I just wanted to share that I stim in some of the same ways your daughter does! Bless you for seeing your child for who she is and standing in her corner. You're a great mom
I'm going to be 20 in September I am also autistic, I found out that I start stimming similarly to other autistic people
37 years old and so do I.
Same this warmed my heart
So kind of you to reassure this Momma!
I wasn't aware what a "stim" was, I'm not that familiar with autism. Seems to me, having a stim, or autism is nothing to be ashamed of, and I think your comment to this Mother was so thoughtful & a kind way to reassure her. I thought her own story of "A Mother's Instinct" was amazing! I'm sure she questions herself at times, wondering if she's doing all the right things for her daughter, tho again, just her recognizing that symptom is truly amazing too. I've never seen a child have a "stim", however being a 53yr old Nana myself, who was finally diagnosed with ADD in my late 30s, I know I have a horrible fidgeting problem. I've been this way since I was as young as I can remember, but when I was young, we were just known as hyper kids, there was no diagnosis or any help for us. In grief counseling later in life, after the death of my youngest son, my fidgeting got much worse, especially thru those sessions. I was shopping one day and saw Silly Putty, and remembered loving it as a kid, so had an AHA moment, and started just playing with my putty anytime my nerves were on edge more, I was having a horribly dark, depressing day (nights were the worst- very long, very lonely) I'd just sit and play with my putty while trying to read, watch a movie,, be online, pray, meditate, (which seems counter-intuitive, but it really wasn't for me) and I DEFINITELY started taking it with me to my counseling sessions and the classes on suicide I was studying, while trying to do some volunteer work with my state's chapter of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. (Yes tragically, at just barely 21 yrs old, my son took his own life. He went missing on a Sunday evening, and when we went to meet him at work Monday, praying he'd show up, when he didn't we knew something was very, very wrong. He never missed work. We left the factory & went straight to PD to file a missing person report. He wouldn't be found for 112 days. Our worst nightmare...😥😓😰)
Anyway, the putty really helped me, tho everyone thought I was so weird, in a joking, silly way...A few people thought it was brilliant and bought themselves some. And then what do you know??? Very soon after came the 1st ever "Fidget Spinners"! Tried those, they didn't do it for me as well as my putty. And NOW?
They have created even Fidget Jewelry!
I was just like, HEY! Someone stole my idea! WHY didn't I think of that??? lol
So I'm doon getting myself, and my 16yr old granddaughter who's struggling with her own mental heslth- getting us each a fidget ring! They're very pretty, AND serve a wonderful purpose. Now, would something like that help you or this little girl that have stims? Forgive me if that's s dumb question, like I saud, just not familiar enough to know what helps and what doesn't. And I just discovered the fidgeting jewelry, so don't know how many others are aware of it?
Well, I pray the VERY BEST for each one of you, And YOU MOMMA, WITH YOUR PRECIOUS LITTLE GIRL! I pray God blessed each of you, and gives you each what you need individually. I pray you're always protected and safe, always have peace and comfort in your hearts, and many loved ones, and friends to lean on when/if you need support. I'd give ANYTHING if my son had come to me when HE NEEDED a friend, a loved one
to lean on for support...I would've been there in a heartbeat, and he KNEW that, that's why he didn't reach out, bc he knew I'd tie him down before I'd let him go IF I had had a clue. He gave no signs... but I could've gotten him thru what he was going thru. It will be the 10th anniversary this summer, a whole decade since I've held my babyboy in my arms, just seems unreal. And, I'm still grieving worse right now, bc I recently out my biggest support, My 1st best friend... My lifelong best friend...My beautiful, strong, amazing Mother. We just lost her 6 months ago, and we miss her terribly, as much as our son. We took care of her fulltime the last 12 yrs, so our whole world revolved around her....now her absence is so painfully obvious.
Ohhh gosh kids, I'm sorry... Guess I got a little 🤏🤏 carried away! It's a lonely night... but Praise God for my husband or I'd really be lost.
Ok again, God Bless Each of You, I'll say a special prayer for each of You tonight!
Wishing you all the best success always!

Is this a self soothing technique?
Most doctors ignore moms as "uneducated" and "lacking in knowledge." THAT is a doctor's BIGGEST mistake!
The thing is that lots of parents actually are. They deal with dozens of patients and parents a day and have to deal with parents saying stuff like “I can cure my child’s cancer with essential oils!” And “I demand antibiotics for my child’s viral infection!” So of course sometimes they’re going to accidentally lump in the very rare case of a 100% correct parent with the thousands of deeply incorrect parents they encounter vastly more often. I’m chronically ill and suffered from me and my parents being ignored and misdiagnosed and gaslit by multiple medical professionals from age 3 until now at 30 years old finally being diagnosed with a rare and incurable disease I was born with that we asked about multiple times over the years if it was possible I had it and we were always told no and having to catch up on decades of treatment- this means my life expectancy right now is only 58 instead of much older because of missed treatment time and I’m so much more sick than I should be if I was listened to but I try not to be angry because I know doctors deal with so many patients and are very over worked and deal with so many people who have no idea what they’re talking about etc that it’s not always their fault if they miss something.
@@Zimzum93 That is so kind and empathetic of you! ❤️ I’m so sorry you weren’t diagnosed properly much earlier. I hope you have an amazing day!
@@Zimzum93You're a lot more forgiving than a lot of us would be. Best wishes to you.
They studied under the influence of Nazis. And their pharma overlords are the cause of 90% of these mysterious conditions. It’s waaay worse than you think. The doctors are highly indoctrinated minions at this point. But they are so sure your child should have 55 doses of vaccines from birth to college and none of that has anything to do with these types of things. And do they investigate? No. Do they want you to think they practice😅 evidence based medicine? Yes. They are mostly useless tools of the beast system. And you should not trust them.
@@Zimzum93 yes, many parents/patients in general exaggerate but always better safe than sorry. Same for your case. Absolute unproffesionalism to not even check especially if you literally suggest it. They shouldn't be surpirsed when more and more people end up mistrusting them (proffesionals) and trusting google where they find both, relevant and valid info along with not so scientifically based info. They're undermining their own authorities and expertise.
My son was stimming from his early months. We called it the hummingbird. I was convinced that something was wrong . He was evaluated several times for autism by different psychologists and therapists. Instead of an autism diagnosis, he has instead been diagnosed with sensory integration disorder, Tourette’s, and intellectual disability. He is a thriving 21-year-old. Don’t be discouraged.
My son was diagnosed with Tourette's and high functioning ASD, as well as ADHD/ADD combined. He just turned 11 and it's frustrating some days to figure out what is a tic and what's a nervous habit.
Wow. When did he start to speak?
This doc helped my son improve and get over autism with his herbs .His name is Dr Oyalo on channel. My sons speech and behavior/social skill has improved perfectly using his herbs
My brother and I are both autistic, and to see parents knowing the signs early on is really heartwarming to see, I wish that more parents were like this 🖤
i had same but like her nobody believed not even a doctors,anyway am so happy and blessed with my autistic child i thank God for this perfect gift 🎁❤❤❤❤❤❤
Knowing the early signs and getting treatment is what helped my 2 year old talk.
Hi Flynn, you have me interested!!! I'm wondering if you wouldn't mind telling me more about you??
Like age, some sensory things you like/dislike, how you cope ??
Thankyou! 😊
On one of the short Videos, near the end, the dear little girl looks like she is getting problems with both her eyes, which, when she was younger, her eyes looked perfectly in line. I just wondered, as I used to Nurse little children ,with a few problems ,that, they needed help with , so, maybe it's my eyesight, that's not good, and, hers are fine, I hope so. Your little girl is such a sweetheart, and very, very happy dear little darling, awe.xx
My experience rather different.
By the time my grandson was a year old, I suspected he was on the spectrum. My requests to have him checked out were met with hostility by my son and his socially-ambitious wife. How DARE I ?!!
It was years before the head teacher at his school called in the parents for a serious talk about what was by now visible to everyone.
My grandson is in his teens now, highly intelligent, and getting some support.
He told me quite recently that if there was a cure for autism, he wouldn't undergo it. "Don't know, Grandad - would I still be ME?"
My doctor said, "He's a boy..that's just what they do." My son stopped hitting his milestones and very quickly regressed. I begged for him to be seen by a specialist to no avail. Finally, I called my regional health department. They sent out a public nurse to "observe" my son & agreed that he was displaying symptoms of autism and set up all the necessary assessments. He was finally diagnosed with Classic Autism at age 5. Always trust your gut and ALWAYS get a second opinion!
So you called the health department for your state? They handle these types of issues? I didn't know that.
@Elas s We live in Canada. Each region in each Province has their own public health department. Honestly, I'm not sure how it works in the US with privatized health care, but if your state has a health department I would certainly look into it to find out if they offer supports for medical diagnosis'.
Trust your instinct. And please get your daughters vision checked. My daughter had a slight turn in 1 eye. The doctor said 'nothing to worry about'. When we were at the opticians having my sons eyes tested she begged to get hers done too. Turns out the 'lazy eye' had almost turned off vision in that eye and she was extremely long sighted. Specialist said a few more months and vision in that eye would never have been able to be corrected. Both my sons with the benefit of hindsight are mildly autistic and ADHD. It seems ADHA is genetic, I've passed it on to all 3 of my children. With the passage of time knowledge is increasing rapidly.

Early 2000s, neighbor got everything she needed for her son's difficulties learning.
The local School District (California) is required to finance special testing/assessments to help in the diagnosis of ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorders, other learning disabilities (such as dyslexia). They're required to place the child in classes that work with him for better learning, as well as ongoing assessment. This may be associated with the Office of Public Health of our County/State.
(This may have only been the neighboring School Dist, where she had her son in preschool, which was run by that County. That meant the kid had access to every advantage.)
Moral of the story: ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF! Start with your County Public Health Dept, and they can guide you to programs your child is eligible for.
How long after a vaccination did he start regressing?
I'm 36 and I stim like this. It gets less aggressive over time and can be physically uncomfortable when trying to suppress it. You got this though momma! Trust your instincts and be there for her. Your love will be what helps her through anything
Sometimes. My sister's turned into a Rett diagnosis. Luckily they've been developing a treatment but it's been 40 years for her
@Don't Care What You Think! I love this. It's like hope and encouragement for this momma from the future in a way. Thank you for sharing!
Stimming in and of itself is not harmful (as long a not physically damaging). So many try to stop littles from doing what their body and mind tells them to do.
This little girl looks happy with her coping tool of stimming
Glad you are here
You’re awesome. Thanks for sharing.
My doctor told me once that he never argues with a mother because he realized after watching his wife raise three kids, that a mothers instinct is real.
Yet one time at a hospital I had a doctor not believe me, I said, I won’t be the one to return. It will be my husband, and you will regret it. Later that night, my son did get sicker, and it was my husband who took him… they did regret it
Pediatrician told me this too.
Same with taking care of any family, I think. I knew my mother was having liver problems and she was about to nose-dive. The ER doc disagreed but said if we insisted she be admitted and her numbers didn’t show a need for it by morning, we would have to pay out of pocket for the hospitalization. No problem. We insisted, numbers tanked out in a few hours, we didn’t have to pay. BELIEVE US. Some of us REALLY know when stuff is wrong.
Somehow i am not able to believe doctors but no option is there.. when i was struggling to take a step dr told me i was imagining there is nothing wrong.. it was a simple vit d test but no one told me to take it even during pregnancy gynecologist just said its very common to struggle during pregnancy. My stitches were not cured after 5 months but dr said why was i making an issue for little pain. It was hard to make her believe my pain then got tested n vit d was almost nil then she said if i dont take medicine even for 1 day ny bones would get broken to even stand.. its been 3 years still not recovered enough. Doctors will only consider when we lose everything and visibly lose a part in body
Since the final taking of your herbs, my son has been speaking well and responding to his name Thank you for saving my son
My daughter has autism too and she's 23 now, non verbal. She still dances to the beat of her own drum and because of her, I get to, too. Being different is what makes ppl so beautiful. I wouldn't change a thing and I'm so grateful that I was gifted such a beautiful angel. God knew what we both needed and it was each other. Stay safe and always blessed, cherish the simple things ❤️🙏
I agree with you 100%.❤️
❤❤❤
God has its perfect reason for everything
My daughter is autistic 22 yo...kids with autisme are Angels on earth.beautiful and innocents..!!! God bless them all.😇🥳🌹🥰
God bless you
Early intervention is key. Trust yourself. You are your child's best advocate.♡
How will interventions help?
@@sparkles999rose2it makes a huge difference! Support in kinder and school can help the kids integrate with others and learn things that don't come naturally to them with interactions with others ie. How to understand facial expressions and how to express themselves when things are overwhelming and taylor their experience with headphones to help all the noise stimulation or a wobble cushion for mat time just to name a few.
@@sparkles999rose2I'm confused too.... I'm autistic and have learned to accept myself. yes, I may be different but I'm not hurting anyone. The only "intervention" I would think some autistic people would need is If they get overwhelmed and hurt themselves physically, like hitting their head etc. It's sad that so many parents still think that autism spectrum disorder is some horrible defect that should be "fixed" and they especially hate it when the autism is visible in their kids (like visible stimming etc.)
@@Moonless87 true though I think serious research need to be done on the causes of autism but the pharmaceutical industry doesn’t allow the subject to be properly researched. If you’re great with autism imagine how great you’d be without it, but they don’t want a cure they push acceptance
Not vaccinating is key 🤦♀️
I knew when my son was first born. I took him to the doctor SO many times but he would never diagnose him. Finally when he was 14 years old they finally listened and sent him to a specialist. He was diagnosed with autism at 14. We missed so many possible resources and interventions that would have made his life so much easier. Go with your gut and never give up!
In this day and age it shouldn’t take so long to diagnose. God bless your son and your family.
My daughter is 22 and they refuse to listen for years. We took her to a new doctor recently. What did he say?? Some people are just weird. In that 15 minute visit he determined she was not autistic. Just "weird". Took her to someone else AGAIN. She scored pretty high on the autism accessments. Not just " weird".
I'm so sorry that happened to you.
@@gemstorm16 Thank you. It's been pretty rough trying to figure out which meds work for him and what resources are helping and which are hindering. But we're on the right path now!!
They
know what is from you first complaint. But they don't what to liable for the shot they get when they are months old. Image telling you it's in your mind. Shame on them
The video of her stimming as an older child, at the end, is a replica of how my Son was at that age.
Trust your gut; you know your child better than anyone and dont let anyone feel you're overreacting.
My Son has autism but he's now 21 and he's working and has just started to go out and socualising. He was nonverbal until the age of seven and his speech is coming on amazingly now because of his job and the incredible team of people he works with, who gave him a chance 🙌🙏🏻
Amen!
That's awesome! ❤
💕🙏✨🕊️
Amazing! My son is autistic too he is 6 years old and non verbal. May I ask, what was your son's first word?
My son has been diagnosed of autism spectrum since childhood and has battled with it all his life. But recently taking Dr Oyalo herbs have helped him get rid of it completely, his speech is vital and his social skill is perfect
My son will be 2 next month. When he was a baby, he would do this and when now he does the flapping arms too. He was diagnosed with autism a month ago. Doctors said it was just baby being baby until he went to his 18m check up and we were told otherwise. He scored 19 on the autism chart. He started therapy last month and he has improved so much. He is even talking a few words and already can eat on his own and even getting potty trained. As a parent, always trust your gut
Just in time to not blame the vaccines
@@Peace_and_Love_777..... fuck off with your opinion lol
@@Peace_and_Love_777..... How so? Don't babies get the vax as early as two months?
@@butterfliesinsidemj That’s a terrifying thought! Don’t jab babies!! Too many unknowns! It is NOT a vaccine. I am not an anti-vaxxer but I am definitely anti-Covid jabs especially for infants who are at very low risk.
@@butterfliesinsidemj vaccines do not cause autism, If they did more kids would have it.
We mothers really feel when there is something different with our children, I have an 8-year-old boy and since he was born he never stopped moving (he never stopped), he grew up and was always too active, to make a long story short...it was Diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, he is now on medication and in a special education program, and I see his improvement in all aspects! and MOMS never doubt his sixth sense!!!

The most critical and important (and useful) lesson I learned in my 20 years as an EMT, then Paramedic, was to NEVER blow off or ignore peoples subjective complaints.
A proper assessment can almost always ferret out the BS and overreactions, but you NEVER ignore a parent’s concerns out of hand like a lot of medical practitioners do. Especially parents of sick kids…most of the time, they know their child’s disease at least as well as any specialist. The care some of those people provide their little ones would knock your socks off.
Parents…NEVER EVER EVER ignore your gut. If you think there is even the remotest chance that something is wrong with your little one, you fight and advocate for your child like their life depends on it, because it often DOES.
My heart goes out to anyone who has been ignored or neglected by the very professionals we are told to trust. I have been on both sides of that mess, both as a neglected patient and even worse, as an arrogant and dismissive practitioner and care provider. I will never let myself forget how I likely hurt people who relied on me because I thought I knew better. That failure early in my career drove me to be the best I could be in the last 18 years on the job. Medical practitioners are human. They are not infallible. HOLD. THEM. ACCOUNTABLE.
That takes a LOT of courage to admit your past mistakes, apologize for your arrogance, and to realize you’re an imperfect human being, just as GOD created us all. The fact that you changed your life and now are being the very best doctor, and MAN, you can be is admirable. God bless you Dr. ❤ Not many can do the honest soul searching it takes to change. ESPECIALLY doctors (no offense towards you whatsoever). I’ve just had my fill, being a disabled person with CRPS, DDD, etc. and because I NEED the “wrong kind of pain medicines”, I’ve been treated horribly. It’s disgraceful how pain patients are being mistreated, judged, blamed for the entire “opioid epidemic”, etc.

It's part of growing up. Until you've experienced first hand those nuance of gut instinct, a parent knows, etc. ego gets in the way. Being young, in general, ego gets in the way. But ego gives us the courage to do some things we end up doing & that can be needed at the time too... We just have to embrace our young cringy self & enjoy the wisdom of today.
I am a children psychologist. I just wrote a similar comment( only that I am not a native English speaker and you expleined it much better). Parents know best. And professionals tend to be arrogant because we feel intimidated, like if we admit parents knew or observed something we didn't it means we are not good. And it is the opposite! Parents and professionals are a team!!
Thank you for being honest and owning your flaws. We're all human and we all make mistakes. Forgive yourself ❤

My step-daughter asked me if I had any advice for her with getting ready to have her first baby. I told her “Always, always trust in your gut feelings about your baby”. A mothers gut is never wrong.
Yes, but even if it is, better she be wrong than a Dr. It's worth risking looking foolish or overprotective. Never let a Dr dismiss you & your gut right off the bat, get another opinion if possible.
Unless she suffers from Munchhausen
And if it is wrong, it’s much better to be mistaken than to ignore a baby’s possible health issues!
I disagree. I've had motherly instincts that turned out to be nothing plenty of times. But what's important is to not ignore when you think something is wrong because it's better to get it checked out and be nothing than to ignore it and it be something.
I disagree that a mother's gut feeling is never wrong. I suffered with postpartum anxiety and my "gut" feeling was majority of the time incorrect. Everything was worse case scenario. It is good to always ask a professional if you have concerns, but not everyone's "gut feeling" is correct.
I am an SLP. I’ve always said that parents know their kids best. Their “pre-diagnosis” is often spot-on.
What does SLP stand for?
@@PlatinumIrishrose Speech Language Pathologist
Yes, by the time a parent seeks formal assessment, there’s a good chance that it’s confirming what they suspected.
Always trust your instincts, my daughter is 5 and was diagnosed with autism in Nov last year, I took her for assessments from the age of 1 because I knew, don't give up 🥰💗
Awww thank you. We have an appointment next month. Hopefully we will get an answer. Same I know she is autistic and we won’t give up ❤❤❤❤ xxx
My nieces daughter is autistic too. I wonder what the correlation is because I hear more and more about autism. This is scary. What our food supply, vaccines, medicines, and so on and so on. God help us and have mercy. 😘🙏🏻
Please if uncomfortablewith 1st opinion,acquire a second then a specialist. You are there to advocate for the best interest of the child. There are no obligations / ties to the MD.
@@janetteaguirre-terry2986 I know what ypu are saying. Now it's more common for children to be diagnosed with Autism. I took a lot of "safe" medications to keep my heart from stopping during pregnancy and just to make it out alive during delivery was a miracle. I think all those prenatal pills ingredients need to be reevaluated
@@YennP I agree and I'm so sorry that you had to take meds for your heart. My daughter is due 4/2023 and we're in a new state small place I have to be her advocate in the delivery room. We're from San Diego and wish that when we're having the last baby show she has the baby there. Prescott, AZ I don't trust these small hospitals. Anyways sending you love, faith, peace, joy, good health for you and your family, my friend. 🙏🏻😘
Her stimming as a baby, seeing the look of her pure joy is just beautiful. She's a gorgeous girl. 🥰
But I think you are missing the mom's point. She's trying to educate other parents. Trust your gut. Speak up. It may be cute as a baby, but not at age 10. Early diagnosis and intervention is key.

@@ddigiorgio8438Stimming is a self soothing technique that is more common and repetitive in autistic and other neurodivergent folks. It's not a bad thing, and it doesn't have to be "cute" to justify it's presence. Don't stop your kid from stimming, you're doing them very real harm because they need to.
The last footage of her stimming, is close to how my almost eight year old daughter stims. So cute to see another doing it ❤
Cute?
Acceptance of spectrum disorder is one thing, but fetishizing it?
This "celebrating" of the divergent is getting just plain weird.
It seems very condescending, imho.
Who asked you anyway??
I’m autistic and pregnant, it’s 50/50 if my baby will be autistic and I don’t care if they are or aren’t they will be extremely loved either way . I bought a home by myself at 21 no parents help ( not many neurotypicals can do that now) , I’m a business owner ( I employed people to help with the aspects I can’t cope with well ) and I’m starting a family and getting married . To anyone who is , please don’t be scared of autism or think it means everything is over , because we can live fulfilling life’s 🙏🏻✨
Wow. You’re amazing and remarkable. Kudos to all your success and handling your journey so well. 🥰
@@Dbb27 ☺️🙏🏻✨💝 thank you !
What an absolutely generous comment. Many people would feel as tho their child (or themselves) would have many limitations. This is
such an eye-opener for many of us who don't know. And congratulations! You're prey damn amazing!
@@raestanich7791 thank you ! We may take unconventional paths to our own success but it doesn’t mean we can’t get to the same destination in our own way 🙏🏻✨
My youngest baby also stemmed with her hands non-stop. There was just something different about this baby and I couldn't put my finger on it. We finally figured it out when she was in high school. She's 23 now and her stemming is pacing now. I wouldn't change 1 thing about her. What makes her different from others is what makes her, her. She's smart, kind and perfect! ❤
My husband still paces at 56. My daughter is ADHD and autistic but high on the spectrum. She will never have a normal life. She cannot self start hardly anything. School was horrible!!!! She’s 18 and has a long way to go. Has other issues on top . Don’t know why I felt compelled to write. I had and have support. Good luck to you and yours. One day HOPEFULLY there will be a damn cure !!!!!
Stim
My son did the hand and feet only when he was happy or excited he is 16 now still dose it on occasions and he dose the pacing when bored or he just waiting for us
@@evilsteven5201 Im severely ADHD, and as much as it is frustrating, shameful & exhausting at times, ADHD is also my superpower. I can hyperfocus on my artwork like nobody's business. It just has to be something that my brain wants to do. But I have zero self starter skills as well. So it's about finding what works to improve our weaknesses, while playing to our strengths. I ask friends and family to help me be accountable to them if I have to get something done, that helps a lot. These disorders are both a challenge and a gift. I wouldn't rush too quickly to the assumption that the only thing needed is a cure. I would say what we need most are effective coping strategies and tools that really help when we are struggling. But we all have our own personal challenges in this life. They make us who were are, and that's ok. I wouldn't trade in my ADHD to be "normal", because its a part of who I am and it makes me different and special. Without it I would just be like everybody else, and I like being weird because personally i think it's just more interesting. And like I said, it can be a superpower at times. Autism can come with gifts as well... like heightened intelligence and a unique ability to focus learning toward specific topics, which can make some people unparalleled experts in a particular field. Just keep your mind open. Teenage years are the hardest, but it gets easier. And it will for your daughter too.
@@CaMiKat thank you so much for your comment! Many people need to realise that Autism is not a disease that needs to be cured!
Being Autistic means someone is built different from Neurotypical people-(regular, non Autistic people).
I know being Autistic comes with a lot of challenges but like you I have noticed the many gifts some Autistic people have, some can do things Neurotypicals can't!
More awareness and education about Autism and Neurodiversity is need in society.
ALL People, regardless of ability, need to be celebrated and valued, not one looked down on while another is put on a pedestal. We are all valuable and all bring something unique and wonderful to the table, some of us more than others, either way WE ARE ALL VALUABLE!
The key is to mention it to professionals and if professionals don't pay attention then seek experts. Not all professionals have an expertise.
Well said
Great great advice I knew my son was autistic at a very early age at 6 months
Exactly! My baby had oral ties when he was born and several pediatricians didn't notice. Our LC noticed and refer us to a specialist.
This.
If professionals are quick to dismiss traits (like if a child makes eye contact) then that’s a red flag to find an expert!
My daughter did this as a baby and toddler. She DID grow out of it. She’s a teen now and an honor roll student. She’s kind, loving, self-aware, empathic, and extremely bright. ⭐️ ❤
She could also still be autistic. Being autistic doesn’t prevent being kind, loving, self-aware, empathic, or bright. I’m twice-exceptional (gifted AND AuDHD), so everyone assumed I was “too smart” to be disabled. I developed subtle stims, because stimming in natural, obvious ways like this gets bad reactions from others. Other signs include sensory hyper/hypo-sensitivities, poor physical coordination, special interests (narrow topics the person tries to learn everything about and never seems to get enough of), executive dysfunction/ADHD, specific learning disabilities (like dyslexia or dyscalculia), and social awkwardness or anxiety. 🤔
My niece did this with her hands for many years, and grew out of it. She was evaluated by a psychologist, and found to be a genius with a high IQ. The doctors determined that she just had a lot of excitement and no other way to express it than flapping her hands for a lack of a better word.
SO WAS MY GRANDSON AND EVERYONE THINKS THATS WHY HE IS NOT AUTISTIC BUT HE IS AND HE IS ALL THE THINGS U MENTIONED AND MORE BUT HE THRIVES BECAUSE WE RECONIZE IT AND WE GET IT AND HE HAS A SAFE PLACE TO LAND

Just because you don't stim doesn't mean you're not autistic... many of us "high functioning" autistic individuals are high masking, aka, we have learned how to "act normal" so we could try to fit ourselves into this neurotypical society at the extreme cost to our mental health... I am one such person who "grew out" of this behavior in order to survive socially, and do you want to know what came out of it? A severe case of C-PTSD dating all the way back to when I was 6 years of age, when I started becoming aware of my social surroundings, and began trying to hide any kind of noticeable stims so I wouldn't get bullied so hard. This caused me to withdraw into myself while on the outside looking perfectly fine... this has wrecked and completely stunted my ability to properly and healthfully function in adulthood.
Don't do what my parents did... don't dismiss the possibility of autism just because they "grew out" of the repetitive behaviors... don't do that to your children.
We were told by so called professionals that our son was not autistic. He'd talk when he was ready. Thank God our old country doctor listened and referred us to boy's town pediatric. The specialist made a very easy diagnosis. He was 4 then. He is 12 now and minimally verbal but I couldn't love him more because his stims make him who he is and he is so sweet and loving and yes, autistic, but to us he's beautiful and perfect. ❤❤❤
I knew a neighbor baby girl with these exact motions. EXACT. She always struggled in school but was an amazing gymnast and dancer and athlete. She went on to become a hair stylist. She speaks quite well.
Too bad she didn't become a gold medalist
Many autistic people can do all those things as well.
I cannot support you enough in this! Parents trust your instincts! It took until my child was a teenager to confirm suspicions I had since he was a toddler! You are not crazy or paranoid. Thank you for sharing this!
Love this comment. Thank you so much. I hope lots see this and feel empowered by it. Xxx
@@happyhandswith_hallie also be empowered to say no to these BULLY Dr's and nurses who insist you have to inject your babies with poison every few months.
I had an argument with some people about stemming. And the one was adamant saying that it could be typical baby/ toddler behaviour. I had to tell them repeatedly that you know your child better than anyone else, you can tell if something doesn't sit well with you and is concerning accompanied with the stemming. That's why I felt I needed to have my son checked out when he wad about 2 yrs old and he is on the spectrum. But I'm glad we jumped in early to get him the necessary help
Since the final taking of your herbs, my son has been speaking well and responding to his name Thank you for saving my son

@@sharksaresupercooldude I will say it took me two years to get my parents to listen enough to believe me. Try to remember that it’s a lot to take in for them and doesn’t look as clear and simple to them as it does to you. Especially if they don’t know much about high functioning autism or if you’re afab.
but i’m diagnosed now :)
@@sharksaresupercooldude As far as devices go I use sound canceling headphones and a computer for all school work. Another thing might be learning how to crochet or knit it can help with anxiety. If you have anymore questions feel free to ask.

My son is the light of my life! Am so happy I had him almost at 40. He has autism - lower to moderate spectrum. I knew right away, but he was not diagnosed until 2yrs old. I always knew he was autistic. Sometimes, people think we are reading too much into what is not happening to them; often, causing delays to any home services. We need to get second opinions because some professionals may resist change or lack the knowledge regarding new conditions. Sameness and predictable patterns work for us! Respecting his unique personality (we all have one) makes for a peaceful coexistence. I ❤ my son as he is, and ignore any negative comments !

My grand daughter has autism. It's her world , I'm just living in it. I love her so much. Got a grandson who has tourrettes he has the same movements as this sweet little baby but he doesn't have autism.
I met a young man while walking and we chatted for awhile. He told me he had tourettes. He would gulp when he got the least emotional. I had not noticed and told him not to control it on my account. He was an amazing teenager. His dad has it too.
My youngest grandson started these hand actions at around 3, and was just diagnosed with torettes at Christmas, he's 6 1/2. His dad has torettes.
My other grandson did this when he was preschool age, but he grew out of it.
No one can advocate for their child like a parent. Never let anyone detract you from what you know in your soul.
When I was around 8 I started getting migraine headaches & nausea that caused me to vomit. My pediatrician told my mom I was being emotional this continued until my mom found me on the bathroom floor having a granmaul siezure. After a trip to the ER & several tests they found a brain tumor. I was 13 by then. Pediatrician don't always know, parents listen to your kids, especially when they are sick.
Autism is nothing to be scared of. Do not worry, your child will be amazing no matter what.
My son was diagnosed Autistic with Asperger's when he was 4. When he started putting his toys in a perfect line (and heaven forbid if you accidentally bumped one of them just a teeny, tiny bit....) and doing repetitive movements with his arms and legs (flapping and "walking in place" movements) his father and I decided to do some digging into what it could be and everything pointed to autism so I brought my concern to his PCP and she sent a referral to have him evaluated and have an assessment done. When the lady was done with her evaluation she turned and told me. I had no major reaction like one typically would. I just looked at her and she says "you don't seem surprised." I replied with "im not. His father and I have been doing some researching and everything pointed to autism. I'm just glad we have a proper diagnosis."
The sooner a child is evaluated, the sooner they can recieve the therapy they need to live a successful life. Advocate for your child, because they may not have the voice to speak up for themselves. I love my son dearly and have been very forward with his school about him and his needs, which also includes a dairy allergy!

Both my youngest (both my boys) are on the spectrum. I knew with them both that something wasn't typical. I have two older children (both girls) whom are typical. God knows I wouldn't change a thing. I love all my children the same, they all 4 have taught me so many different things about this life we live. I'm their biggest cheerleader! 🙏🏼
I have 2 with Asperger's and 1 with more classic Autism, and and other with ADD, two of them also have ADHD. I never thought anything of it when I was in the middle of caring for, teaching and leading them all, but now I can appreciate the stress, difficulties of everything that goes along with being your kids advocate to the world.
Autism presents differently in boys than girls. Odds are your girls night have it and just don't display stereotypical symptoms.
She's special. From personal experience. She knows that this is a comfort to her. The moment she is told that "something is wrong with it" by society, teacher's and other children.. the moment it could affect her. You seem to be on the right track.
Yes. This ⬆️. I am a female on the spectrum. I lived three decades not knowing why I felt so different. At the end of the day we are all different with strengths and weaknesses. My best advice is to encourage parents to help their child develop their healthy special interests and don’t try to ‘fix them’. Also, I recommend getting involved in and oriented with autism organizations that are supported/backed by and give voices to actual autistic individuals.
She's so precious. 🥺 Glad you got answers & I'm sorry no one listened.
Totally agree! As a Behavior Analyst I have to literally fight with PCPs and Psychiatrist to provide a correct diagnosis…
Thank you for raising awareness. She is a doll.
Mother’s instinct always go with that! I don’t know if it’s just nature or the physical bond with your child but as the saying goes, “ Mother always knows best” My son had a speech disfluency that led to other learning delays. My husband said he was fine but I knew…now he attends Oklahoma State University. He wants to be a teacher! ❤
Since the final taking of your herbs, my son has been speaking well and responding to his name Thank you for saving my son
After 12 years of concern my son's PCP finally heard me. Our adopted son was diagnosed with FASD and I was diagnosed with PTSD from all the trauma and shame I experienced prior to his diagnosis. If parents can't get people to listen, go find someone who will listen. His diagnosis has changed our world for the better! ❤️
Im so sorry 🥲
Did you notice it early on as they do have a specific facial features?
As a person with a disability, I want parents to understand, having a disability is tough and it's not always the easiest life for all but it's not a death sentence. I am 33 years old, I am living in my own, getting ready to get married to the most caring, kindest, understanding and most handsome man I've ever met. I am currently not working but I am a stay at home wife technically and I am happy. In my ,33 years I've overcome every obstacle that came by way and I've done it with beautiful resilience. Your life will not always be easy being disabled and raising a child with a disability will not be easy but be patient with us, notice the little things, let us feel we are just as worthy love and grace as any other child. Just because other milestones are happening to other kids doesn't mean it won't happen for yours, it may take a little longer and just because you see other kids going to good colleges and your son is learning to cook and clean, that's okay. having disabilities can come with it's insecurities like feeling like you aren't smart enough, good enough or like if only you weren't like your peers your parents might be proud. Please always be kind and reassuring to your kids and let them know how proud you are and how they are just as worthy of pride as their peers. good luck. No one's disability needs to be fixed or cured, it needs to be understood
Standing ovation! I wish you could say that to everyone. If you made a video, I think it would go viral. So much love in your words.
Since the final taking of your herbs, my son has been speaking well and responding to his name Thank you for saving my son
I love seeing young autistic people being embraced and actually able to be themselves because I never had that opportunity as a young child and now the masking is ingrained into me
My bff’s son stimmed like that and also was speech delayed. I suggested he might have autism and she denied it. 13 years later, he was diagnosed with autism.
She’s absolutely adorable
She's amazing. You just know as a parent that's educated. She is a little princess regardless.
As a parent you raise the concern until you get someone to listen
She's a beautiful, happy baby...but I wish people would connect the dots....vaxxing causes this...
Officially diagnosed ADHD at 32. Getting officially diagnosed with Autism is a waste of my time and money at this point because it's not going to magically make my life better and there's no treatment for it. I've always silently fidgeted with my toes. Especially in k-12. I fidgetted with my mechanical pencils, bit my nails, skin picking of pimples and scabs. I'm glad you're advocating for her. A part of me wishes I had known back in my childhood, but research around women and girls with ADHD and/or Autism wasn't prevalent then. now, I fidget/abuse the pop socket on the back of my phone.
My 6-year-old daughter is autistic and she stimms exactly like that. She focuses her eyes so much that sometimes they cross, she locks her legs and she scrunches up her toes and when she does that I know she just really likes what she's looking at.
Sometimes I have to tell people that she's not hurt or sad because that's the first thing that they think. She's actually very happy ♥️
I have a 16 year old daughter who does the same exact thing! She's never been diagnosed but, I believe she has it to some degree and has had it since she was a baby!
callmesoap GOD BLESS 🙏🏼🙏🏼💙
Yes,yes,yes,a thousand times ,yes!!! My grandson is actually so excited when he does this!! Maui does this to him every time!!!❤❤❤
So another words it's she's acting content, you see it but others don't. I think that bothers you doesn't it? Don't do that to yourself 😔 how old is your daughter and when was she diagnosed
@@soldierforyah7309 the same thing for my 6-year-old daughter. Should it be treated in some way?
Mama always listen to yourself. No one knows your baby better than you. And listen to grandma when she tells you to never back down to protect your kids.
My son has been diagnosed of autism spectrum since childhood and has battled with it all his life. But recently taking Dr Oyalo herbs have helped him get rid of it completely, his speech is vital and his social skill is perfect
She's absolutely perfect just for who she is. I was told that babies couldn't have any of those things and I was noticing them at a very early age. And it came out that it was.
I had the same situation with my daughter, I noted that she doesn’t growing and took many year to change her size in her clothes but the doctor said Nothing is wrong with her🤷🏻♀️, unfortunately in nine year old no one medical told me she had TURNER SYNDROME AND I WAS RIGHT about her, I felt it, , I knew it, something not right with her. Believe in your feelings if something is bad in your children insists with the doctor.
Clue..Ask R Dinero what he thinks about baby vacs....
Parents, especially Mommas should listen to their Gut!!
I KNEW my son was Autistic, yet Drs kept telling my Different things…ADHD, Anxiety, etc.
Finally got him to a Specialist at 15 & Whatdya Know..I Was RIGHT. So many of his Formative Years were Much Harder than they needed to be.
@pristinejoel8802
There is NO “Cure” or “Healing” for Autism…it’s Lifelong.
Peddle your MLM stuff somewhere else.
Im glad you listened to your gut; she looked so happy as a baby
This is a very valuable video and could be a big help to many. I worked with children with autism for many years and absolutely would have seen that as different than typical “baby movements” ❤️ you know your child.
I'm 19 I've been stimmin my whole life 😅 I thought maybe I was just odd or something and sometimes I do it without realizing but I'm not diagnosed with anything :)I mean I am not diagnosed with autism .... though I do have adhd and apd and memory problems 😂😢😅
Look at her go!! Please let the child stim. Even if it gets you judgement from friends and peers, even if she gets judgement from them... let her be herself. A few moments of a little social embarrassment is nothing compared to a lifetime of deep and complex emotional trauma that could take decades to unravel because she was left unable to express herself or regulate her emotions. Don't force her into anything that will cause her distress or try to make her act "normal"... she's perfect just the way she is.
Please spread awareness.
She looks really happy while she's stimming in this way 🥰
Mother knows best.....always be your own advocate and push till someone listens!
Awwww.....It's beyond tough, as a mom, when you know & have that sick, intense gut feeling that something is not right...but you're told "don't worry!" But you knew all along... I'm so sorry the doctors didn't take your concerns seriously. 😥 God bless you & your beautiful little girl always. ❤
Yep. So many times I’ve been made to feel crazy. And know she has many diagnosis but we’re just waiting for the autism one. It’s been really hard. Xx
They told us that our daughter had a very large head., that I would loose the pregnancy, that we should let them take her. She has always been healthy, with a normal size head and has her Masters in Micro biology and is a Fourth year PhD student.
You decide for you and your baby.
Not to put down your concerns but that could be ADHD I’m 14 and do that ADHD and autism share a lot of symptoms maybe try getting her evaluated for ADHD
Well done mama! I had to fight for my sons assessment and the paediatrician didn’t believe that he was autistic. The assessment was very clear!
People would rather tell moms that they’re anxious than to help them get their children the early intervention that is so desperately needed. 😢
I believe something might be wrong if you watch her eyes.
Shes autistic. There's nothing "wrong" with her
We have tried to have her eyes checked. She won’t let anymore near her. She is under assessment for autism and has a diagnosis of sensory processing difficulties. Xx
@@annebrunner9698 right? Just grab baby arms and done
@@annebrunner9698 are you serious??? Have you ever tried checking a toddler's eyes? My son has had 3 eye surgeries and I assure you, holding them down is NOT effective. Jesus.
@@jlcollins7673 idk what’s in your strength because yes I’ve easily held 2 year olds down to suck all his boogers out. Held a 3 year old to give him medicine. And even a 5 year old to put underwear on him. So yes it’s possible and the baby obviously won’t like it but you are the adult with way more strength and when something is needed or an emergency I can hold the child down
Those bastards denied your concerns because they knew they were at fault with whatever jabbing poison they put into her.
Cutie. Its only different wiring, not the end of the world, she will most likely be very intelligent compared to ordinary children.
Never ignore a mama's instinct. Mama just knows when something is wrong.
Wrong? As the momma of two beautiful autistic kiddos and one lil guy who may or may not have it, there’s NOTHING “wrong” with my children!!!!!!
The child is happy, obviously healthy and seems to be thriving. So what if she’s not typical in how her brain works? That means there’s something “wrong” with her?!?!
My kids are the most special, clever, loving children on the planet and there’s not a damn thing wrong about them!!! Not being like everybody else isn’t a bad thing. And there’s SO much worse that baby could have been diagnosed with. I’m sure parents of kids laying in hospitals all over the world with incurable cancer or horrific genetic diseases etc who would KILL to be able to trade that out for their child having autism instead!
@@armstrongdhawan6338 relax. I don’t think she meant it to be mean. I think she meant to say “not normal”. No reason to get so defensive.
@@armstrongdhawan6338I understand you. I'm an autistic adult and people act like it's something to be ashamed of. It's very disgusting how people are just because someone is different.
@@riri3167"normal" doesn't exist. We're on a giant spinning rock in space, nothing is normal. Who is to say autistic people aren't the normal ones and you're the one that is not normal? Just say different next time, you don't seem to be very educated on the topic of autism. And autism speaks doesn't count, they're a hate group. Not even a single member of their board is on the spectrum. Albert Einstein was autistic, autistic people are fully aware when you call them something like "not normal". That's just rude. We're not deaf or blind or stupid. Would you like it if some stranger came up to you and told you that you're "not normal"? No you wouldn't. We don't either.
A parent usually knows when something is unusual with their child, regardless of if a Dr. sees it yet. Often the child is just to young to be diagnosed according to guidelines so the Dr doesnt even bother looking into it until the child is older.
Totally agree . Similar situation with our son . Our paediatric doctor agreed he had autism after evaluating him over period of time . But his school would not agree until he was 12 so he had no support regarding his condition until then . But we knew ..
Ah wow this sound so tough. Kids often mask in school until they can’t no more. It’s so hard. Mainstream schools are so hard for our kids. 🥹 xxx
My daughter was diagnosed with ADHD and a spatial skills disorder at 5 years old. We received zero school support until middle school. It broke my heart that my daughter was obligated to attend summer school every year she was in elementary school because she struggled with math. She exceeded everywhere else. Those 6 years meant long nights every night as I coached her. I learned I could use kinesthetics to teach her to add, subtract, divide and multiply. In middle school her first math teacher called me within a couple of weeks and advised that she believed my daughter had dyscalculia. I explained the spatial skills diagnosis/ ADHD at age 5 and the fact that we were denied special accomodations even with the recommendation of her pediatrician, therapist and psychiatrist. That middle school math teacher moved heaven and earth and used that original recommendation for services to get my daughter accomodations for math. My daughter graduated high school having passed all her math classes as well as chemistry. The accomodations she received like being able to write out the working out and answers to math questions in essay form (she used her right brain rather than left brain for math) made all the difference. I don't know why it was so hard to get math accommodations in elementary school but it left my daughter believing she was stupid when she's exceptionally bright. Middle School and High School were so much easier for her and she regained some of the confidence she had lost in elementary school. BTW they used the justification that my daughter was reading at high school level by 2nd grade and received A+ in all other classes to deny her accomodations.
I am so so sorry. My grandson was diagnosed at 2. 😢 he is in a daycare for lack of better word but it is a one on one theory for 40 hours per week. Sending you a big virtual hig
That’s horrible in this day and age!!!!!!!!!!!
How can a school overrule a medical opinion?? They SHOULD NOT have been able to do that.
Your video made me cry because this was my son 20 years ago. I didn't know what stimming was back then and had him tested for autism. They said since he learned how to talk, crawl, walk, etc, at the normal age range that he was not. They diagnosed him with terrets, ocd and anxiety disorder. He's 23 now and doesn't stim nearly as often, but I still believe he was misdiagnosed.
Since the final taking of your herbs, my son has been speaking well and responding to his name Thank you Dr Oyalo for saving my son with your herbs. I’m so happy to share this good news
not same issues, same circumstances, told by a few doctors it was new mom syndrome, even for my second kid. i was right they were wrong. i hold doctors in low esteem now till they prove me wrong.
I was disregarded over and over for this same thing! My sons doctor thought it was just and I will quote "a normal baby thing" (we switched right after that) because this momma knew there was more going on. (There was more going on other than the hand flapping) Finally found an amazing pediatrician that listened to me and watched my son. We left that appointment with a diagnosis. My son is now 17. Thriving like crazy!!!! He is soo smart and able and kicking soo much butt in life! Find the best early interventionist and never settle for something you don't feel is right. Find those second opinions. We found speech and OT and that was also God sent! I've been in the community now for 17 almost 18 years and there are soo many mommas and daddys too that are phenomenal help and soo compassionate! ❤ God bless you and your beautiful girl!
Never doubt you gut/instincts as a parent!
You’re doing great momma, it’s hard when they’re younger but as an autistic person I can promise you that it gets better ❤ she’s not wrong just different and she’ll have a full life and because you saw it early she’ll have all the support she’ll need to grow. Stay strong💪🏻
That’s awesome. Why the sad, heartbreaking music tho? Autism doesn’t have to be thought of as a tragedy.
I have been a childcare provider for over 25 years, if I saw stems like that in a child that young, I would mention it to a parent; most children don't exhibit those motions in that way, it would have raised my attention too
I understand hand flapping. I'm a 45 year old aspie. This child is so bright and beautiful. You can absolutely see how smart she is, sense the support she knows she has, and to that, and this is the best one to me, see that she KNOWS, she is COMFORTABLE & CONFIDENT.
We knew at 9 months our gbaby was autistic. She's the most precious & loving child. Loves to dance and has the brightess smile. ❤️
Infectiously sweet baby girl ❤. Her smile alone will melt your heart ♥️
A lot of kids actually outgrow and normalize.
Signs of autism should not be ignored
My daughter is 17 now and I still wonder deep in my heart if she might be on the spectrum. She and I have talked about it, and if she is she’s very high function, but I can just…. Tell. Idk. She had several stims as a baby. Hand flapping, leg kicks, playing with her ears, sensitivity to light and sound. Her pediatrician was the first to bring it up but she didn’t hit enough of the markers to ever be referred for formal evaluation. She did eventually stop the hand flaps and some of her other stims but still has a couple, still has sensory issues (especially with clothing and her bedding), and just little quirks that even she is like “mom is this a symptom? Is this normal?” She does excellent in school, is very social and “normal” on the surface but there is just something in my heart that tells me she’s somewhere on that spectrum.
Gut instinct is very important, especially in regards to our children.
My middle child would do that constantly. As he grew older, that stemming would decreased but he was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 6. The movements stopped completely by the time he was a toddler. He was placed on a very small amount of stimulants for the treatment of the ADHD to help with concentration and focusing. He's 21 years old, extremely smart, hard worker, responsible, respectful, educated...what el I could ever say about my very special child. I wouldn't change a bit about him. His randomness is so unique that it would make you smile and laugh out if nothing ❤
I had actually worked as a nurse for Autistic children that were not able to take care of themselves in any way.. Then I got pregnant, my husband and I sooo happy, and within the first week I could just tell.. everyone literally every family member said 'no he'll outgrow that'.. well he's now 19 years old and his quirks are who he is and thats perfect. And I can promise you that you'll figure out the same thing at your pace. ❤❤❤ to all of you and your beautiful family.
❤A beautiful blest child❤🎉
Thank you for sharing
Your shared out of love of your daughter
People can take your free parental advice or not
Il take it
Awww honestly. Thank you. This means so much. I do this because when I had all these concerns I couldn’t find anyone who did all the flapping and kicking like Hallie. I want to help others feel less alone and know the power of the parent gut instinct ❤️
She's beautiful. Thank God she has you. Just precious.
Yup. Mine too. Doctors & early childhood development “experts” brushed me off and refused to test him for autism. Then there was a pandemic and no one would see him; we couldn’t get services. Now he’s finally seen for speech therapy but it’s been a long, long, difficult road. It will be an uphill battle his whole life.
I remember feeling this way but just try to be positive about the individual growth and not worry about what’s “average”
Thankfully both my kids went through many years of speech therapy. Now they're adults and won't stop talking 😆
Mother's know when their child has an issue physically, mentally, emotionally, neurologically and ever other way. We carried that child inside of us for nine months. We know our babies before they even get here 💯❤️🥰
So let's investigate all babies with stereotypical movements.
Finally someone said it
I despise when the “professionals” disregard a mothers instincts. Happened to me too, and their dismissal lead to my son being diagnosed with failure to thrive. Even then, they continued to ignore me. Turned out, my son had Cystic Fibrosis and nearly died because of the professionals. I had learned along the way that I was a carrier for CF and I begged them to test my son. They ignored me and tested him for every other disorder under the sun. Finally I learned how to fiercely demand things - and FINALLY they tested him. By then, it was nearly too late - he was quite literally starving to death. I found my voice - don’t be afraid to raise cane if you need to. You are your child’s best advocate. ❤
Well done for sticking to your guns! She's absolutely beautiful and will have the best life with a mama like you beside her ❤️
That's so true, no doctor can know better than the mom! She sees child and knows her much better than anyone else.
Wenn dieser Gendefekt, in der Familie zu finden ist,sollte man sein Kind sofort darauf untersuchen lassen. Aber diese kleinen Menschenkinder können, wenn man es rechtzeitig bemerkt, sehr gut behandelt werden.Ich habe mit solchen Kindern gearbeitet, sie können sich zu zauberhaften Menschen entwickeln.
My son does,he is 37, expecting their first born .. ❤️ He stopped sounding after the whooping cough med,he had a bad reaction.. later speech therapy,occupational therapy .. these kids have such deep interests ❤️
