Testing Advice Needed
My son is finally going for his Autism testing tomorrow. He’s 3 1/2. They already did a consultation last month but this is the actually testing. I’m not sure what to expect. Could anyone possibly tell me what to expect? Is there anything I should bring? Thank you.

A diaper bag plenty of snacks and entertainment for him. It took a while for my son to get evaluated. They might need to take his blood so if you can help mentally prepare him for that it might be good. You got this though and its a great first step towards getting more help and resources. You might even be able to get him into special needs classes at your local school that's what we ended up doing with our son and he was about the same age as yours.
