Dd1 is in the prossess of being diognosed with AS, she shows alot of AS traits and i always thought there was something wrong.
I have spent so much time with dd1, getting her ready for school in september, helping her learn to read and helping her to mix with others (which she finds hard) that i hav'nt realy picked up on dd2's problems.
Dd2 has always been realy layed back (not like dd1) and seems to play well by herself, she never cry's or makes any fuss.
Dd2 is 2.2 and does'nt talk, she rarely responds when i call her, she flaps her arms alot when excited, she is good on her feet but does'nt like to walk outside. She does'nt point but will grab my finger and make me point.She holds her ears when i take her outside or in the bath. She's a very happy little girl and i love her to bits, i am so worried that she may have Autism or AS.
Dd1 has been realy hard work, i know if dd2 does have Autism that we will cope, i just worry about how she will cope as she gets older.
