Just looking for some advice its a bit of a long one but my health visitor has been round a few times for the baby but she has met my 4 year old and on one the visits she mentioned about a few things he does.. walking on tip toes.. very energetic.. big tantrums etc..which to me hes just a very energetic boy his dad always has loads of energy aswell so never thought anything of it but she said about doing a questionnaire to see if he fits the spectrum for autism So when we did it she said he does and she will refer it but I looked up signs of it and he doesn't seem to fit any! He is such a social child loves being around other kids and plays nicely etc I'm just confused on how he hit the spectrum and wondering if anyone else has had a similar situation and what the outcome was?

Really?! That must have been difficult! She said to me she wasn't sure but it's around 18 months from referal to diagnosis! But looking at signs I would say if anything it would be ADHD not autism its so confusing! Xx
@charlotte_eve94 I would say don't worry, but always worth getting checked out :) a lot of diagnoses start off as ADHD or ADD, but honestly if he is on the spectrum the earlier the support the better :) loads of people seem to have hang ups about the spectrum but it's only brought more understanding to my family and our friends, plus where everyone told us my brother wouldn't have a "normal" life, he ended up going to college and university, getting a masters and starting his own business and he is one of the best people I know :) support these days is a lot better than it was 10 years ago as well :)
A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
You can be racist towards the race of your friends.
You can be racist towards your own race.
You can be racist towards the race of your family.
You can be racist towards the race of your spouse.
You can be racist towards the race of your kids.
Your racism doesn't just stop being racism because 'X' is said race.
Racism is Racism.
Thanks for coming to this very well needed TedTalk.

My little brother was the same when he was little but he didn't get a correct diagnosis until he was at least 10. He got diagnosed with ADHD first and then later it changed on his statement to Aspergers! There are some telltale signs but everyone is different :)
