I'm sorry if this thread comes across as ignorant or insensitive - it is not my intention.
My biggest fear with my son is autism, even when I was pregnant I feared it. He is 7.5mths old and I just cannot shake this feeling that there is something wrong - it's making me so anxious & paranoid.
He is a very smiley happy baby,and makes eye contact but he hates other children, especially when they make a loud noise. It startles him and he cries alot. He doesn't babble yet. We get ooo's & ash's - he sounds like a monkey at times but no baba's or mama's etc.
My support worker seems to think my anxiety is linked to my PND & lack of confidence, but I'm just so worried.
Did any of you mummies pick up on any signs when they were babies? I know nothing is ever diagnosed until late.
