My ds is 3 years old and the nusery staff have been concerned over his devlopment, the nuserys senco even agreed with me when i said I think hes autistic. So yesterday we went to see the health vistor and she said unoffically that she thinks hes on the spectrum too. So we have been reffered to see the peaditrican. So what now That appointment will take a while to come through, so in the mean time what should I be doing for him my friend said dont try and stop him spiining thimgs because it calms him down. where as the health vistor says distract him. What do you guys think. I would be gratefull for any help or advice with this because I havent a clue.
