What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

I was over or under sensitive to most sensory input causing sensory seeking oravoiding reactions.

I interacted with older or younger children and if I didn't have that chance I talked to some teachers.

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.
