i'm getting worried


My worry freak mind is on the move again! I'm getting worried of Aj's behaviour lately.

I'm not sure if its normal, but when he crave for attention he slightly bangs his head!

He started doing that a few days ago when we try to calm him down from his cruising rituals. We put him in his play pen to read his books, but he suddenly bangs his head towards the pen frame. After that he put his hand on his head and make a gesture that his hurt. Well, actually he doesn't really bangs his head hard, slight lang.

But that alone gave me the notion that his really craving for attention. But why? Is it because I'm not around to cuddle him always (coz of my work)? Though I know my mom is there to substitute me, or is there something wrong with his nanny or their daily rituals? or is this one of the symptoms of him having ADHD ( attention-deficit-hyperactivity-disorder) wag naman po! :,(

I've read some articles about this disorder that's why its freaking me out! Though, they said that ADHD is diagnosed at around 5 - 6 years old (preschool age) and my sis-in-law said that one of her nephews has same behaviour when he was his age, but overcomed it when he got older and no physical damage or whatsoever. But I'm still worried! :(

hi eds! si dwyn din inuuntog ulo niya sa wall or pinapalo niya ulo niya pag di niya nakuha gusto niya. it's their way of manipulating the parents eh.

I was watching tv and they had a kid on that would hurt himself. I think you should see a specialist or talk to your doctor just to calm your mind.
