Siblings with asd

Hi, I’m just wondering if there is anyone In a similar situation to me.

I’m currently trying for a baby with my partner who has an autistic child from a previous marriage. She’s now 7 and is low on the spectrum. I’m worried about the chances of having another autistic child And how I would deal with things. 

Is there anyone who can speak to me about their experiences?

    Hi

    i have a daughter with HFA level 1 aspergers . I‘VE just been diagnosed the same. I have another daughter who has dyspraxia. 

    All I can say is even if you have a child with autism, you and he/she will grow together and learn from each other and how each other ticks. You’ll know what to do and how your own child reacts to things, what they do/don’t like. 

    Autistic traits do tend to run in families, but it’s not always the case. 

    good luck with the baby making Slight smile
