Guest guest Posted March 23, 2001 Report Share Posted March 23, 2001 Adam, our son was born in July. Rose and Albert [ ] Month of birth? Hello all, I'm sure this has come up before, but I'm very interested in finding out which month of the year your autistic child was born in? Several studies seem to suggest that a remarkably high proportion of children with autism are born in March. The speculation is that, if a specific pathogen is involved in causing autism, then this pathogen could be more prevalent during the early winter and would affect March babies during early pregnancy. I am fully aware, of course, that at least one study has come up with a completely different time of year - the summer - as a frequent period for births of autistic children, which is why I am wondering what you out there can tell me?

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2001 Report Share Posted March 24, 2001 My son with autism was born July 25, 1989. I know two other boys on the spectrum who were also born July 25, but in 1988 and 1984.
