HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it is nothing to worry some time in some children it take time for what you are looking else it is normal one, still clinical examination is the way to rule out the doubt, and better to see the pediatrician without clinical examination nothing much can be said as long as slow mile stone is concern hope this information helps.
