6.5 month old not responding to name

2018-10-20 15:55:43
My 6.5 month old daughter is not responding to name..Very rarely she turns her head when called that too when she is not concentrating on anything..otherwise she turns to sounds/funny voices we make,She is smiling when smiled at her, doing army crawling, plays peek a boo, me smiles when I am back from Office,tracking when I enter or leave the room. Only responding to name is a concern..What's the baby milestone timeline for responding to name ?..When I googled I ended up in Autism..Please provide your thoughts doctor.
