Is this a sign of intelligence or sensory dysfunction? All his milestones are just fine. What do I make of this?

My son is almost two and he loves being rocked throught the day, I have always felt a little guilty about rocking, especially before sleep. But now that I have that information I know it's good for him. What a relief. I would love to read more about it. Thank you a lot Joanna That is very interesting.
