A member asked:

Do doctors just automatically look for cp or do some parents have to bring it up to them..? (2 year old possible mild cp)

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Individual docs vary: Always good to ask if you think u have reason 2 b concerned. Most competent pediatricians will assess motor tone, strength symmetry and developmental milestones but there is a great great deal of variability even amongt docs - probably made worse by the more healthcare for less push. Developmental pediatricians and pediatric neurologists would be good resources if u want second opinion.
