Just to get started

I have never had the chance to write in this type of forum before. I was inspired tonight by a blog I read revealing personal details of a family living with Asperger's Syndrome. This is very near to me and felt I needed to reach to others who may have the same questions. We are about to endeavor into the world of diagnosis. There has always been something that has not sat well with my thoughts on my oldest son's development. Loss of oxygen during childbirth, surgery in infancy, frequent ear infections, and massive cycles of antibiotics. Not to mention vision an issue until we got glasses at age 3.5. But we were repeatedly told he was meeting his developmental goals. He fine and gross motor were "within normal limits".
Everything in normal limits or "off the charts" in performance. Why can't I shake this feeling that something is getting missed.
