Autism HELP....
Hi - I'm hoping someone will be able to help me, my lo is 14 months old, I took him to the hv on Monday and she said that he is showing early signs of Autism.... I took him to the doctor this morning and he agreed, so lo has been referred to the local hospital for an assessment...
What do they do at the assessment???
I'm absolutely gutted, my beautiful little boy...

What made the hv think he has autism, I didnt think they could diagnose this early i always thought it was something that they picked up at nursery or school.
Remeber though, whatever the drs say, Saul will always be your beautiful little boy and you will get through any hard times together. Sending you big hugs xx
Totally gutted...
I adopted a little boy 6 yrs ago with a condition called fas,he shows some signs of autism as there is a wide spectrum of symptoms with his disability,but please please remember no matter what your little boy is still the same little boy you have always had and always will sweetheart.
I understand that you are obviously completely gutted but yours or his life wont end,there will be challenges along the way,but believe me it makes you a stronger more tight nit family if anything.
Stay strong and if you want to chat you know where i am ok.
Sending huge hugs your way xxxxx
They have assured me that at present he is not showing the usual signs of Autism so they don't want to see him again until October but things are looking up...
I'm so very happy...
