Is Autism linked to Birth Trauma?

Aspie Mum

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

  • I have a personal interest as I was born prematurely and had a difficult birth.  A Doctor was slow coming when I was born.  I fell out of a pram when I was a few weeks old.

    However in the 1980s I had brain scans and nothing was found wrong as the result of the scan.

    May be one of the above caused my Autism but the brain scan did not detect it.

    David.
