Mom shares video showing early signs of autism in 8-month-old child

In a video she has since uploaded to TikTok, Brandi Green knocks Hogan on the floor and calls out her daughter's name to get her attention, but it doesn't work. Bella, who was 8 months old at the time, does not respond to her name and does not make eye contact with her mother. Hogan told Newsweek When she first recorded the video of her now three-year-old daughter, she was trying to document Bella's movements for her physical therapist.

In the video, Bella moves forward with one leg while keeping the other bent. “She was in early intervention, where we had physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy in-house,” said the mother of three.
