[quote=Anonymous]And I'm not that upset... is this weird? Denial? The thing is, prior to getting pregnant, I always feared this. I have two cousins with severe autism and it was my WORST fear. But with my DS.... I love him so much. I love his humor and his quirks and his hysterical personality. He is so loving with his family, and in certain environments, plays wonderfully with his peers. He is a HAPPY HAPPY kid. Most all of the time. For some background, what led us to get a diagnosis is arm flapping, noise aversion, and some social issues (very overwhelmed in crowds and large groups). I am thankful for the diagnosis now, so we can do whatever we can to help him along. But in the long run, I have a firm belief that he will be just fine. Should I be freaking out more than I am? I feel like all you hear are the panicked, worried stories. [/quote]
