My son shows signs of being on spectrum ADVICE

Hi I’m new to all this my little boy is 4 and since he was about 2 people have pointed out different things saying they could be related to autism .

I have been really struggling with how hyper he is he never stops now I’m not talking a stereotypical child behaviour his is excessive. He is never tired.

he can tell you all the names of every dinosaur and what they eat and how they hunt their pray.

he will tell you every car make and does very often just sit with his cars and tells himself what they are.

He struggles really hard with change even a little change such as going to nursery ( before he finished) at a different time, he needed a routine book so he could talk himself through the day and routine.

he hasn’t got any problem with eye contact or interaction if anything he will talk to anyone about absolutely anything, He struggles a lot with concentration and sitting still to have a story or to focus on a puzzle for example.

so if your still with me Thankyou! And I would really appreciate peoples advice insight on what to do next.

GP appointment?

wait for school in September?

im a very concerned mummy that maybe I am making things worse with the way I handle situations which in turn would make it harder for him to understand 

thanks guys sorry it’s a long one Rolling eyes
