Is your baby developing properly?

As a parent, you are definitely constantly watching your child and wondering if his or her development is going well. Check how the child should behave after the first, second and third year of life. If you have any doubts about your child’s development, consult a doctor. If you notice strange behavior in your child, e.g. running in circles, adopting strange poses, unusual reactions to sounds, fascination with selected objects, and hypersensitivity or insensitivity to tastes, smells, pain and temperature, contact a specialist (e.g. a pediatrician, a neurologist, child psychologist). It could be childhood autism.
