Hi

My daughter was diagnosed with Classic Autism last year when she was 2, she is very much non-verbal and has major sensory problems. My son I suspect could have AS, he is only 4 years old, so it's early days.

Hope you dont mind me coming along to gain some knowledge from you all.

An honor to meet you, beautifulspectrum (what a great name). You certainly have come to the right place to help you to gain in the knowledge and in the understanding of the total spectrum. Wrong Planet has definitely helped me. Here's wishing you, your daughter; your son, and all the good people in your life all the WP best.

I have a 2-year-old granddaughter, who isn't talking much yet (verbal, but sounds like she's on a really good drunk.. I didn't know they could diagnose that early.

Welcome to the club.

welcome

Thank you for my welcomes

My girl is the third of my kids and I knew there was something 'not quite right' from about 18 months old. I waited and waited for any signs of communication but it never came. She never and still doesnt point, nod, wave or shack her head. She never looked at us...more interested in staring at the ceiling for hours on end.

She doesnt understand language and has no joint attention.

Here in the UK they only tend to diagnose Autism before 3 if it's very obvious or severe. It was very obvious for my daughter.

A diagnosis was a 'passport' to the resources aswell as being able to begin to try and understand her.

She is beautiful and there is more to her that meets the eye...i mean i feel she knows more than she lets on
