Good food, a steady environment, and lots of safe, predictable social interaction with parents who love him.

Just about the same thing any infant needs.

How do you identify autism 9 month old infant?

As an autistic Infant Caregiver, I think it's not a good idea to try to diagnose autism in an infant that young. It's almost impossible to diagnose it before 24 months. Signs usually appear when the infant is a one year old, not when they are 9 months old.Lack of eye contact, social interaction in an infant, might possibly be signs that the child has not received and experienced emotional love. This should be addressed by gently interacting with the baby, showing them love, putting yourself in their range of vision so that eye contact is made. And if it turns out a child is autistic, they still need as much love.
