I will answer this question showing my signs of autism I had as a child:
I used to bite my fingers and hands to self regulate. I sucked my thumb sometimes too.
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 wasn't unable to get non verbal communication and non literal communication too.
I was under sensitive to bowel and bladder feelings but other Interoceptive feelings felt just too much.
I didn't pretend play like the other children. I didn't know how to do that specially with other children.
What does it mean if someone asks if it’s pink?
I watched some films over and over again specially my favourite scenes.
I didn't have a social smile and I sometimes had exagerated facial expresions or just expressionless.
I made too much eye contact, I just stared at people's eyes for very prolonged times often causing discomfort.

I was a calm baby, I didn't cry that much and I didn't need another person's entertainment.
I was over or under sensitive to most sensory input causing sensory seeking oravoiding reactions.
I loved to stay alone in my room drawing or playing with my legos, I could do that for hours.

I loved to run from one side to another side and jump a lot, I always did it everyday.
I had trouble sharing objects and food, normally someone had to tell me to give them something. I sometimes didn't want people to have my objects to the point of meltdowns.
I interacted with older or younger children and if I didn't have that chance I talked to some teachers.
I also didn't group play, I was physically close to those children but I was parallel playing most of the time.

My reaction with other children apart from my close family approached me was mostly walking away or hitting them.
I had problems to follow instructions and to follow rules, I always got in trouble for this one.
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.
