Sorry for the numerous questions I keep asking. I just don't have a clue what is going on with dd at the moment.
DD1 is going through an ASD dx. She is always talking to herself (usually while running back and forth or in circles). This morning, I thought she was having a row with dd2 in the playroom but when I went in to look, dd1 was there alone.
Then,this afternoon, we were at the checkout in Asda and she was having a very animated conversation with herself while flicking her fingers and pacing a bit.
Both dh and I were a bit thrown by this, because she doesn't usually do this in public (at least not to that degree)and she was loud.
I'm not bothered by people staring -dd2 has provided many floor shows with her spectacular tantrums . I would just love to know if this is something common to ASD?
We have over a month until her next appointment and I am feeling a bit desperate.
Thanks in advance. So many of you have taken the trouble to give me advice and encouragement.
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.

Does anyone else's dc talk to him/herself a lot...?
