We have a PDD-NOS dx and William is speech delayed. My ds was dx'ed at 46 months. We have had a huge inkling that he's been on the spectrum since he was about 18 months and actively pursued diagnosis since 3 years old. We started interventions with William at 18 months old when we knew something was going on with him.
Anyway, he has a speech delay that ST has helped him a lot in. He can now hold some simple conversations(a year ago he had very little language). He is loving and affectionate and has started to make eye contact with us. He doesn't interact very much with kids under the age of 8. He stims and has a definate need for routine. He also has a huge amount of anxiety.
