Response to Inhibiting Primitive Reflexes |
| You seem to have misunderstood what I was trying to say.
As I stated previously - I think either his vaccinations or reoccurring ear infections could have suppressed his immune system, thrown his normal development off schedule not allowing him to inhibit his reflexes, thus compromising his central nervous system and all it took was a trigger - and I believe that trigger was the DTP vaccination - to allow him to succumb to autism.
I will say however that my son was not born autistic, he developed normally until he was about 8-9 months of age. His agpar score was 9 at birth and 10 a few minutes later. He had begun talking baby talk, was rolling over, trying to crawl and took his first steps not long after 11 months. But all these skills were later lost and I truly believe it was something to do with his vaccinations, so much so that our 3 month old son is not being vaccinated at all, and just the thought of it makes my skin crawl.
I also believe that there may be 2 forms of autism, one that is present from birth and is autism in its truest form, and one that is triggered by an environmental or developmental factor, and I believe that it is these children who are able to partially or fully recover from their autism. Yes, your child may have been autistic from birth but I can say with complete certainty that my son was normal from birth. | |
