I used to bite my fingers and hands to self regulate. I sucked my thumb sometimes too.
I will answer this question showing my signs of autism I had as a child:
I loved to run from one side to another side and jump a lot, I always did it everyday.
I interacted with older or younger children and if I didn't have that chance I talked to some teachers.
I learned many skills like reading and writing earlier than other children.
I was a calm baby, I didn't cry that much and I didn't need another person's entertainment.

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.
I didn't pretend play like the other children. I didn't know how to do that specially with other children.
I had trouble answering questions about topics that didn't interest me or I just didn't answer.
