[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 310790, member: 84"] My son Travis is autistic. He has always been very affectionate. That never even factored in while he was being diagnosed because other symptoms and behaviors were quite obvious. There was no doubt. All you've got to do is sit with him for about 15 mins. lol And it was that way when he was your daughter's age. I was familiar with autism in the severe form. Back then it wasn't a spectrum disorder.......and no one had as yet realized there were varying degrees. I used to tell his pediatrician docs that the boy acted autistic........yet it didn't make sense cuz I knew he wasn't severe enough to actually get a diagnosis of it at that time. We've come a long way in more than 20 yrs. Good luck on getting her evaled. Don't be surprised if they want to wait a while before actually giving her the diagnosis if she has it. 16 months is awfully young to be diagnosed with it. ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
