    I've deleted your duplicate post so we can keep all the replies in this one thread. I've got 2 children on the spectrum - a son and a daughter. I think there are a lot of families about with more than one. Have you spoken to your daughter's health visitor or GP about your worries yet? I think my daughter was about the same age as yours is now when we set the ball rolling. She didnt have any speech by then, although she had some words before that and lost them. If there's anything we can help you with please just ask.

    Good luck.
