Autism Diagnosis

Hey all! My nov 2020 baby was recently diagnosed autistic. She is my only baby, and I'm doing everything I can. Does anyone else have autistic children? My daughter loves counting on her fingers and the color blue!

Hi! My son is also born on November 2020, I just recently have had the journey of finding out of his Autism. Currently I’m looking for speech therapy and behavioral therapy, he’s super sweet and is super smart!

@Tiffany Garza that's the thing! I joined a FB group called "Ask Autistic Adults: Resources for Parents of Autistics" it's an amazing group! I'm just so worried because the ABA Therapy doctors recommend is absolutely hated by all Autistic adults. It's literally trauma for a lot of them. So I'm worried about finding programs that avoid that, but it's hard. Apparently it was created by the same guy that created Gay Conversion Therapy

So my daughter has an evaluation for behavioral therapy cus I suspect some concerns similar to asd. Any advice or pointers on the evaluation and what to expect ?

Go in with an open mind, they will sit you both in a room and let your child play with toys around them and see how they do

I have an autistic 6 year old!! Feel free to reach out! I’ve passed the toddler stage haha
