What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

I was under sensitive to bowel and bladder feelings but other Interoceptive feelings felt just too much.

My reaction with other children apart from my close family approached me was mostly walking away or hitting them.
