Hello

Hello, I am mum to two fabulous children, my eldest is nearly 3 and has (2wks ago) got a diagnosis of ASD, and my daughter just turned one. We are in the early days of the ASD world. There is so much to take in its been a little over whelming to be honest. And although it was something that we had expected/anticipated (although not formerly mentioned by any professional that we were dealing with, annoying!!!) when we got the diagnosis confirmed it was still a shock.

We are on the waiting list for a couple of groups and informative sessions and are hoping that after attending these we will feel  better equipped to learning to deal with our sons needs.

This is the very first forum I have joined, hello to you all and goodbye for now.

    It is a little overwhelming when you receive a diagnosis even if you are expecting something. Up till then you convince yourself that only you can spot that certain something, but to know that others agree is something else.

    Will you still have input from the 'professionals' or are you now having to find your own way through the world of ASD?
