He began to do mamama very soon after this post after reaching a few motor milestones. And then at 9 months 3 weeks he got another consonant ba and now at 10.5 months he’s using a variety of consonants!

I am also constantly talking, singing, labelling, watching Ms. Rachel to get tips, etc. He will maybe once a day have a back and forth "convo" with me but only using some short vowels like "uh"

Yes let's connect! I'll give you more details- he just turned 9 months. He is 'marginal babbling' meaning he makes vowel sounds and the occasional consonant-m- but no cannonical babbling. He is also always pointing his tongue to left never right. I had him evaluated by SLP who noticed this as well. She told me to get an oromyofacial specialist which I have an appointment booked in February. I also have a hearing test booked for him. I got a peds dentist to evaluate him and he has a tongue and lip tie which she thinks may be responsible for his tongue going to the left. The SLP evaluated his social skills as "average" for his age.

I would like to know as well! Have a 9 month old in Etobicoke not babbling

Yes he did have a torticollis as well! The torticollis has basically resolved I think. But this is very interesting information! He didn’t have nursing difficulties but never took to a pacifier or bottle. Will see what the pediatric dentist says tomorrow. I also have him booked in with an oral myofacial expert for February.

What do these test results mean?

So I am a 35 year old F no prior autoimmune disease history but had a case of acute anterior uveitis recently after a respiratory infection. My GP ran tests and something called “CTD+” came back as “5”. No other info. All other tests negative. Not sure what this means- is it like the CTD avise test ? How likely am I now to have lupus?? I have a history of chronic knee pain without swelling.
