I did have numerous ultrasounds with Foster, but I had even more with Reilly (who wanted to come early - landing me in bedrest for 12 weeks!) and Sophie (who was breach until the week before I delivered).pixiemamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15343744406666443879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545465610500649673.post-7114335097728684462009-03-15T15:37:00.000-07:002009-03-15T15:37:00.000-07:00I had three times as many ultrasounds with Andy as...I had three times as many ultrasounds with Andy as I had with Joey. Guess which one is autistic. <BR/><BR/>What I can say is that Joey HATED the ultrasounds. He would punch at the wand and go nuts. Perhaps he had sensory issues even then?Joeymomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08254601805621175842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545465610500649673.post-88901935636117610452009-03-14T18:34:00.000-07:002009-03-14T18:34:00.000-07:00No, I don't think ultrasounds cause autism.

And I had more (and earlier, which I would think would be more likely to cause problems) ultrasounds with my NT daughter than I did with my AS son.PBearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02681563084345230038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545465610500649673.post-41133877653270902082009-03-14T16:49:00.000-07:002009-03-14T16:49:00.000-07:00I only had the one at 20 weeks and then one the da...I only had the one at 20 weeks and then one the day he was born.

I've not read that article before. Could you send me the link? I still have to think that if you need excessive ultrasounds due to medical reasons (which is the only reason why I can think of them doing more than one or two in a pregnancy) then autism is still better than the negative that could have come about without the monitoring of the ultrasound if you know what I mean. I'd much rather have Hannah with us now, Asperger's, SPD, and all rather than have risked her not being born healthy. I don't even want to imagine that scenario.<BR/><BR/>Natalie<BR/><BR/>PS.

Both are autistic. <BR/><BR/>I'm thinking that this study may have found an association, not a correlation: in other words, the two factors are related, but not <I>causally</I> related. Maybe kids with autism are more prone to in utero difficulties such as breech presentation that require extra ultrasound procedures. <BR/><BR/>ultraSound logical?mama edgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16434016248126809607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-545465610500649673.post-70696948564154244122009-03-13T21:46:00.000-07:002009-03-13T21:46:00.000-07:00fascinating...I'd heard rumors about this earlier ...fascinating...I'd heard rumors about this earlier in my research - but never ever found the actual study/info - do you have a link to it?
