What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

SIGNS I HAD AS A BABY (0–2 YEARS)

I had limited interest in another children, I normally played just with my brother but no other children. I occasionally played with my cousins.

I interacted with older or younger children and if I didn't have that chance I talked to some teachers.

I had trouble to be fed. I ate slower and it was difficult for me to stop drinking from the bottle or breast. I also had trouble eating solid food.

I also didn't group play, I was physically close to those children but I was parallel playing most of the time.

I wasn't unable to get non verbal communication and non literal communication too.

I was a calm baby, I didn't cry that much and I didn't need another person's entertainment.

I used to bite my fingers and hands to self regulate. I sucked my thumb sometimes too.

I always had a justice sense, if there was no equality or justice I would get very upset about that.

I made too much eye contact, I just stared at people's eyes for very prolonged times often causing discomfort.

I was over or under sensitive to most sensory input causing sensory seeking oravoiding reactions.

These are my resumed signs of autism when I was a child. Most of them got overlooked because the only thing about autism my parents and grandparents knew was about very severe cases of autism. Another factor is that I was born female (I'm trans) and that I masked from a young age.
