Autism

[Tljw]

my boyfriends brother has autism. I don't know much about it but it's not severe. They have different dads. But I was wondering is it hereditary? Is there a chance my unborn baby can have it ?

Autism isn't hereditary so there is a chance that any of our kids could have it. Don't worry if your baby will have it or not, autism varies greatly from person to person, some are more severe and some people you wouldn't even know had it. My little brother is autistic, no one else in my family has autism, and he's extremely intelligent, he's an engineer, and has a lot of friends.

My cousin has autism and my aunt nor uncle have it, I asked my mom and it was from her being older and they had to go through a lot to conceive him. But every autism story is different. I'm sure your baby is fibe

If they have different dads I don't think your child would have it but not all kids get autism from the parents all the time. Just stay positive
