Recent asd mum of a 5 year old - socio communication disorder , does anyone have a similar little one ?

Hi

My names Jo and last friday my 5 year old son was diagnosed on the autistic spectrum . He has socio communication disorder but doesnt show many of the behavioural sides of autism eg he shows good eye contact , doesnt need strict routines, but does go through obsessions , his current one is dinosaurs. does anyone else have a similar child thats main problem is the speech language and understanding side of autism ? any help or advice would be greatly appreciated xx
