Autism is usually described as a spectrum
disorder because the signs, symptoms, and
abilities are different for each patient. And it
can be tough to diagnose initially. Most kids
with ASD apparently have a usual infanthood and
parents are unable to detect any significant
warning sign. They sit, crawl, eat, and sleep
like any other baby. Autism, in most cases, gets
diagnosed only after 18 months of age, when
social differences start getting noticed. Hence,
parents need to keep an eye out for certain early
signs to get their little ones help on time.

  • Early Signs of Autism in Babies
  • Babies usually make eye contact by the age of 2
    months. So, make a note if your baby is above two
    months of age and still unable to make eye
    contact.
  • Babies usually start following an object with
    their eyes if you point at it. If they are not
    doing so, it might indicate autism.
  • By the age of 6 months, babies recognize their
    own names and often respond when their name is
    called. If a child doesnt respond when their
    name is called even after 9 months, it could be a
    warning sign.
  • Often a pattern of non-response is noticed in a
    baby with autism.
  • Lack of emotion in facial expression is another
    red flag. An autistic kid doesnt necessarily
    feel less emotion, but they are unable to express
    it through facial expression.

  • Early Signs of Autism in Babies
  • Delayed speech is another sign. If a child is not
    saying a single word by 16 months or has not
    started saying double-letter words by the age of
    2 years, it is better to consult a doctor.
  • Regression is a major indicator of autism using
    human stem cell. Most autistic babies start
    losing the skills that they had learned once. For
    example, they stop babbling, or making eye
    contact, or forget pointing at objects. Some
    toddlers pick up few words but gradually stop
    using them.
  • Now, since parents and caregivers are often
    unable to recognize the early signs, most kids
    get diagnosed after they turn two. So, seek
    medical help if you notice any of the following
    social or behavioral problems
  • Prefers to play alone
  • Does not share toys

  • Interacts less
  • Lack of facial expressions
  • Resists physical contact
  • Does not understand personal boundary
  • Has difficulty understanding or expressing
    feelings
  • Avoids eye contact
  • Repeats the same phrase over and over, also known
    as echolalia
  • Interacts in a robotic manner
  • Displays repetitive behavior like rocking,
    spinning, flapping hands etc.
  • Loves routine and gets upset when the routine is
    broken

  • How to Deal With Autism
  • Depending on the condition of your child, various
    therapies can help you in dealing with the
    disorder.
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Behavioral Management Therapy
  • Social Skills Training
  • Speech Therapy
  • Diet Modification
  • Occupational Therapy
  • Medicine
  • Stem Cell therapy

Stem Cell therapy is a brand-new ray of hope for
autism. Stem cell banking benefits conditions
like cerebral palsy already. So, inspired by
that, scientists have started researching on cord
blood banking and its subsequent use for treating
autism. The immune modulator capacity of stem
cells can restore autismimmune alterations. In
simple words, they can replace the malfunctioning
cells and replace them with healthy cells.
Therefore, stem cell banking can be an effective
method of treating autism.
