Lana Grant has six children and is autistic. She wrote a book about pregnancy and birth and runs the popular Facebook group, Mums on the Spectrum.

From making a baby through to the birthing process and social difficulties at the school gate, there's a lot to talk about, and Lana has been drinking-in information about it for years now.

Another of her special interests - what we used to call autistic obsessions - is puberty. She describes how autistic people dislike change and so puberty can be more stressful because of the new "lumps" which appear.

Presented and produced by Emma Tracey.
