My son has a neurology appointment this month to figure out what is going on. He starts the tic thing around 1:14 sec.

Update: My 9 month old son has motor stereotypies but with typical (normal) development - i.e non-autistic.

  • He is going to be 16 months on May 26. He is 100% healthy & intelligent. He doesn't do these types of movements above anymore. However, he does twirl ankles when he is bored, tired or excited. His grimace has turned into more of a clenched smile now (when he is uber excited). I love his quirkiness! So long as he is physically and mentally healthy, I am not worried. :)

  • My 8 month daughter has been dping this same thing for several months. Her pediatriciqn suggusted it was "stereotypies"....what have you found out since this was recorded?

  • please see my video called "playing guitar and bass to Drowning Pool 1/19/2011" He was 6 months old there... That was the minor hand movements... He does those now along with the arm flails.

  • OMG! My son started doing this same exact thing when he was around 3 or 4 months. He is 10 months old now, will be 11 May 25th... and he STILL does it like crazy, and he does a crazy hand flap too... almost looks like a wave, and when we go places people think "oh look hes waving" but he is NOT. He looks like hes frantically waving his hand and arm. He has a wave and that is NOT it. Its usually 1 hand at a time but occasionally its both. whats your update? I am goin to subscribe to you.
