How old was your Asperger son when he started to talk?

My son is an Aspie, 3 years and 1 month. Very hard to understand. He has been known to make 3 words sentences but it's rare. He prefers to use simple words, such as: bye bye mommy door, which means: leave my bedroom mommy and close the door behind you :-)

How old were your Aspie boys when they became fully verbal?

Has anyone seen excessive thirst in their child as a symptom of ASD?

Someone suggested to me that it's a sensory thing - that children with ASD can experience excessive thirst - or just wanting to drink all the time. I've wondered about that with me son - who will down glass after glass of water all day if you let him, and I haven't been sure if that's him just being a normal toddler or if that could be a symptom. Anyone have any insight to share?
