What kind of autism is this?!


Question: What kind of autism is this!?
there's a specific type of autism that is fairly mild, but interferes with the coordination of the mouth muscles, thereby causing extreme difficulty in breastfeeding and then with speaking (when it is usually finally diagnosed)

i was just wondering if anyone knew the name of it!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'm not sure!.!.!.our son has autism and never had any problem latching on!. He was also tongue tied!.

Our friend's baby was born and later diagnosed with Angelman's Syndrome and could not latch on- this is an issue with Angelman's babies!. She pumped for almost 2 years to make sure she was getting what she needed from the breastmilk!. Incredible!.

I am interested to know myself!.!.!.!.I'll check back!.

Edit: I found this:

I rather liked reading the second link!.!.!.because they all breastfed and there weren't issues with latch though I have heard of babies that were later diagnosed with autism having those issues!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
