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

  • In the womb environment, Rubinella is often cited as a causal factor of someone ending up "on the spectrum". 

    I had it fresh (I mean reallly fresh) out of the womb.

    It makes me wonder, in a none-too-emotionally-generous-fashion, how many people would have a "more mellow" life than my own, if almost all nurses refused to show up to Natal Wards while infected with dangerous conditions/diseases.
