My 22 month old is delayed in all areas and currently at 8 months for communication and 12 months for the other 4 areas. He is showing traits of ASD but I think there could be a genetic reason for the delays as during pregnancy he had a high chance of 1 in 5 for Down syndrome. He doesn't have Down syndrome but I believe that high chance result was due to a different genetic condition but have not got as far as testing yet.
Just wanted to hear some stories of others in a similar position or who have experienced this and how your little ones are doing now.
I am expecting the gap to widen as time goes on.

I hope you get some replies @candywoo. Have they offered you genetic testing/counselling yet?
