Our DS 2 and a half has been diagnosed privately with GDD with autistic traits. Our LA doesn't diagnose ASD until 3 but are lucky to be seeing SALT ect already which is the most important thing. He is making great progress speech and language wise - starting to put 2 words together - and as this improves we can see his obessions easing and his range of interests widening.
We are confused at the moment and still don't know what to think. My question is: were you convinced your DC was ASD but actually turned out to be speech and language delay/ disorder instead? Or is it typical with ASD that symptoms can improve as language develops?
