Hi,
My name's Shelley, I'm married and we have a 2yr old son who has been privately diagnosed with ASD. I'm also 37 weeks pregnant with another boy. I thought I would join here for advice and hopefully make some new friends that have some understanding of what we're all going through. My son in general is a very happy little boy, he doesn't understand a lot of things. If i don't make sure he has something to eat or drink he would go all day without even asking. He does say some words he recognises shapes, letters and numbers. He loves visual stimulation and will shake things and look out of the corner of his eyes at things. We haven't told any of our friends apart from a couple, only because they're quite gossipy and I can't bear the thought of people talking about my son behind my back.
Anyway, I just wanted to ask if anyone has gone on to have other children and their second has had ASD?
