[quote=Anonymous]Saw this last evening. I know these studies come out all the time...but this is actually the first one I'd seen mentioning this connection. DS was post-term(?? "late") and in distress and labor was induced with drugs. Between ages 2 and 7 has was diagnosed as PDD-NOS and AS. CHICAGO (AP) — The biggest study of its kind suggests autism might be linked with inducing and speeding up labor, preliminary findings that need investigating since labor is induced in increasing numbers of U.S. women, the authors and other autism experts say. It's possible that labor-inducing drugs might increase the risk — or that the problems that lead doctors to start labor explain the results. These include mothers' diabetes and fetal complications, which have previously been linked with autism. http://health.yahoo.net/news/s/ap/inducing-labor-may-be-tied-to-autism-study-says[/quote]
