Eight mothers of eight young Rett syndrome girls were interviewed in respect of early
symptoms in the child. A questionnaire originally developed to tap early symptoms in
infantile autism was used. Considerable overlap between early symptoms in Rett syndrome
and infantile autism was seen, although clear differentiating features might be present
already in the first few years of life.
