I think you need to talk to your mum properly sooner or later. I expect that she is very anxious about you and is trying her best but is probably being over protective. Building a positive relationship with your mum could be really valuable and rewarding for both of you and it would be good to be on good terms with her when your babies arrive.
Hopefully, she has been putting the DLA aside for you.
When I suspected that I had Asperger's I bought a book - Living Well on the spectrum by Valerie Gaus
This did a couple of things for me. Firstly it confirmed my suspicions about myself. Secondly Valerie advocates a positive approach to living with an ASD condition. Working out how to have a positive attitude could be very valuable for you. It is a practical book for people on the spectrum, it isn't a complicated text about why it happens and such things.
