My son has been doing this since he was 6 months old. It comes and goes, but pretty much does it every day. We took him to a specialist and it is not autism. He called it a Stereotypic movement disorder and if becomes a problem when starting school there is medicine for it. Most kids grow out of it and or it changes to something else. I still worry kids will make fun of him and really want a second opinionView Thread
