The signs of autism are more noticeable in a child’s second year. While other children are forming their first words and pointing to things they want, a child with autism remains detached. Signs of autism include:
- No single words by 16 months
- No pretend games by 18 months
- No two-word phrases by age 2
- Loss of language skills
- No interest when adults point out objects, such as a plane flying overhead
People with autism sometimes may have physical symptoms, including digestive problems such as constipation and sleep problems. Children may have poor coordination of the large muscles used for running and climbing, or the smaller muscles of the hand. About a third of people with autism also often have seizures.

ReplyDeleteEven though autism is challenging to analyze before two years, manifestations regularly surface somewhere in the range of 12 and year and a half. If signs are distinguished by year and a half old enough, concentrated treatment may assist with overhauling the brain and opposite the side effects.
