So glad your dr. listened to you. You sound on the right track and remember, even if one of these experts does not get it, if you in your mommy gut feel they are wrong, keep searching.
I remember one of my favorite Asperger's kiddos to work with could sing every single Disney movie song entirely by age 3. could not ask and answer "how are you" or "which toy do you want" very well but we worked on that using PECS in her case... and by age 4.5 she was using functional verbal language to request simple things. Now she is far beyond that at age 12.... She still hums and sings amazing songs though!
