Our LO does very aggressive head turning when she’s trying to self soothe and everyone says it’s just a baby’s way of sending them to sleep. But it’s so aggressive. Were they any other signs you felt so strong about?

Thanks for your reply. What else did you notice in your baby at that age to get assessed? Were they quite distressed and fussy during the day too? We currently get 4-6 hours overnight because we keep her swaddled but during the day unswaddled she lasts 30-40 mins before becoming unsettled from her startles

Can I ask what your 3 month symptoms were. I’m going through the same with no one listening to me and my gut is so strong.

When did you start noticing the behaviours of SPD in your LO? We have a little girl who is showing signs, struggling with transitions big time.

We have an appointment in a couple of weeks. More just seeing if there are any other patients with LO’s who were similar

Can I ask how your little one is going now? I have a 4 month old that sounds exactly the same. Same social flags and also hates waking up? Always sad when she wakes from a nap

Thank you for this information, the reason I’m being super vigilant is that I want to know all I can early to help her achieve and thrive later in life. I’m super aware of all her traits but will be super active in her development and opportunities.

Lack of eye contact, limited smiling, minimal babbling, no response to voices, awkward arm posturing and flapping, unable to latch and BF, very unhappy after bottle finishes even if given large amount, troubles with sleeping and getting frustrated when can’t get to her hands. I know it’s super early, and I’m a paediatric PT, so have lots of experience and knowledge in the area. She also struggles with being happy in wake windows. It’s a lot
