Q. in what part of pregnancy can i find out if my unborn child has Autism or any other health issues?

A. until today, there is still no procedure to determine the autism symptoms and early detection of it in unborn baby. I agree with dagmar that autism is usually apparent in age of 2-3 years old. but some researchers have found a very early detection in age of months.

Q. in what part of pregnancy can i find out if my unborn child has Autism or any other health issue?

A. Autism can't be diagnosed before birth, and actually not until the child grows. Other health issues - no once can guarantee you a perfect, problem-less child - there are conditions that are impossible to be diagnosed during pregnancy. However, if you're concerned about this subject, you may want to consult your doctor (e.g. a gynecologist) in order to receive a more personal and comprehensive answer.
