What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

I was a calm baby, I didn't cry that much and I didn't need another person's entertainment.

I will answer this question showing my signs of autism I had as a child:

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 loved to stay alone in my room drawing or playing with my legos, I could do that for hours.

I also didn't group play, I was physically close to those children but I was parallel playing most of the time.
