Language Skills in Autistic Babies
Prior to learning to speak words, babies babble and make a variety of noises that combine a vowel with a consonant. They enjoy having babble conversations with their caregivers, and two babies babbling to each other is common.
Babies showing signs of autism don't babble or make grunting sounds, and may not interact at all with the people in the environment. Speaking and vocabulary may be delayed during its infant and toddler stages.3Lowry L. ‘Early Signs of Autism.’ The Hanen Centre. The.org/helpful-info/articles/early-signs-of-autism
