Autism is classified as a neurodevelopmental disorder which manifests itself in markedly abnormal social interaction, communication ability, patterns of interests, and patterns of behavior. Although the specific etiology of autism is unknown, many researchers suspect that autism results from genetically mediated vulnerabilities to environmental triggers.
Just curious how many moms had C-section deliveries?My son was born as an emergency C-section.He was in my birth canal trapped with the cord around his neck.The doctor was not board certified- that I didnt know at the time.She was the doctor on duty when I delivered. Someone I only met once.She shoved a tube up me to release fluid incase the cord was around his neck.It was and the moniters werent working.I only diolated to 9 cm.He had a scab on the top of his head from her hand or that hose she put in me that didnt work.Take this as whatever.Im not trying to be a scientist.Curiosity has its own meaning and will never go away.We all are curious.I can still have my next child natural if I want to.I dont know yet which way Ill choose.Please understand I want my son to have a sibling without autism to be there for him when I cant be.

yaeah....we went thru this line a while ago. Along with epidural, and oxygen, and birth induction. Doesn't seem to be a very strong link. Similar questions on some other sites, really not a vast majority. Vacs questions seem to have stronger links. Hope that helps. FYI induced with both my kids 1 ASD 1 NT. Epidural with my NT. Oxygen with my ASD.

I don't have that one. Both of my kids were natural with no meds and a midwife in the birth center. Oliver was strong and smart up until the vaccines. Then the mercury stupor was very obvious, and with the first detox drop he got better and continues to each day, although he is stidd catching up time lost for the 2 years I didn't know what to do.

both my kids were c-sections, my son was emergency c-section and was in NICU for 9 days for a collapsed lung, and today he is totally fine, my daughter who was born c-section perfect pregnancy has all kinds of problems, so I dont think c-section has much to do with it, I thought the same thing in the beginning,

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
