I was just wondering how many Aspies out there are first born children? It seems from reading some of the posts, that alot seem to be oldest children. My son is my first born of 4.


I also wondered if any Aspies out there suffer from what is called Cluster Headaches?
Thanks

My brother (autistic) was the firstborn, I'm also autistic and the youngest. Migraines run in my family, cluster headaches don't.

I am the oldest child...

I don't suffer from cluster headaches but I do have periodic migranes or stomach cramps when I'm very stressed.
