SO - I worry.....

and spend the better part of 2 days worrying and obsessing over my DD ( I've been thinking she is not talking as much as she was) , then tonight, we take them to my moms for a party for my dad and she is the star of the show. She is talkative, friendly, trying to get everyone to play with her - eating normally ( even pizza, and she NEVER wants pizza) - staring everyone in the eyes, playing peek a boo with anyone who will play with her ( she likes to hide behind a couch or chair and jump out and yell BOOO!
She seems so totally normal sometimes - I don't get it. Maybe I don't let her get enough social interaction? She acts so much more normal when we are out and about - and wants to be the center of attention, and everyone just dotes on her because she is SO sweet and funny. I just don't know what to make of her - except that I love her to pieces no matter what

I don't know - all I know is for tonight - I can be less worried, and thats a rarity these days.

thanks for all the answers to my questions all day

i think you might have hit the nail on the head. how wonderful that she does so well in social situations. i would find that very unusual if she indeed was on the spectrum. that's just my opinion.
