Early sign of autism- hand flapping and teeth grinding

Can you explain how the Epsom Salt works, and if it is helpful to lessen the flapping and grinding.

thank you for communicating @aware4autism, hope and pray for your complete recovery from surgery, you are a great mom and deserve only the best from life.

@LosetheStone16 thank you so much! One surgery turned into turned into 2 surgeries, but I am on the mend now. It's always hard on Jade when I am in the hospital, she looks for me all the time, calling my name through the house!
I'll hopefully have a video up by Friday.

Hm..this is interesting.
I have a little cousin, and I think he's autistic. We've gone to doctors, and no one diagnoses him as such. But I think he is because he doesn't talk, he only shouts in a gibberish language, flaps his hands all the time, is always covering his ears, and loves to climb. He climbs couches, bookcases, stairs, shelves...he'll just walk up to you and start climbing up your legs. I'm concerned.

@Aquaria2291 google the MCHAT, have his parents fill it out and take it to his doctor. If he is on the spectrum, this will definitely help him get a dx and early intervention.

does hand flapping alone necessarily mean that someone has autism? i used to do that frequently when i was younger but i grew out of it by elementary school and i have never been diagnosed as autistic or as having any kind of mental retardation....

@ctswright Autism is NOT mental retardation! :(

i aplogize

@ctswright this is only one sign of autism. ALL kids will display a sign or two of autism.

she is cute and beautiful!
