I keep getting shrugged off by everyone they meets my son but my gut is telling me he needs help. My son only says mama, dada. Sometimes he will try to say dog, uh oh. He can sign more, and points to many things he likes or wants. He babbles a lot and repeats the same sounds mostly when babbling. He screeches loudly...

Anyone else baby constantly throwing up after feeds? It’s actually getting ridiculous now the amount of change of clothes we have to go through, I don’t know what else to do!
