Mother's Anxiety: You are a Loving Mother! Your acts of love are-Breastfeeding, and getting up at night for breastfeeding or rocking her. She does not have signs of Autism. Enjoy her innocence, curiosity and playfulness Have patience; she will wave at you again. Have Heart to Heart talk with father of the daughter about parenting and have Parenting Classes. For ongoing worries, see a Therapist.
