Hi there! I completely understand your concern about your 11-month-old not making eye contact. It's natural to worry, but it's also possible that your little one is just going through a phase. Some babies can be more reserved and take their time warming up to new people or situations. However, if you feel uneasy about it, it wouldn't hurt to have a doctor take a look. You can start by consulting your pediatrician, who can assess your child's development and offer guidance. They may recommend a specialist if necessary. In the meantime, try not to pressure your baby into making eye contact. Instead, create opportunities for interaction by playing games like peekaboo or using toys to engage them visually. Also, make sure to give plenty of positive reinforcement and praise when they do make eye contact, to help build their confidence. Remember, every child is unique, and they all develop at their own pace. Trust your instincts and seek professional advice if you feel it's necessary. Good luck! https://invl.io/cll6she
During assessment you can voice this out, have your child refer to KKH/NUH for assessment.
you may highlight to the doctor during the developmental milestone assessment
Hmm. Avoiding eye contact is not normal. Please get baby checked asap.
Do get it checked early
