Is Autism linked to Birth Trauma?

Hi, Im trying to do some research around birth trauma and autism. I have asked professionals and they just seem to frown and not really know whether there is a link or not. I would be really grateful for any thoughts or personal experiences as I believe that there may be a link somewhere.

Many thanks

  • Leave Scorpion alone Autismtwo. Their views are logical and often backed with common sense and logic. I've had lovely discussions with Scorp where we've both pondered over difference interesting facts that either of us have noticed. If anyones rigid, its you, as you often dismiss others ideas or thoughts when they don't correlate to your own.

     And yes, I had a difficult birth, 10 days late, upside down, got pulled out with a massive set of tongs..... but I feel that my autism came from my DNA and was therefore already there when I was born. Its a difference, not damage.
