This struck me because i'm sure that my advocacy is not being taken seriously because i'm 'a young mother of 2'.

I have 6 people that i talk to about DS and DD (excluding my DP wink ), 4 of them are grand parents, 1 is a mother of another very GT child, and the last is a mother of another 'average' child - but now her girl is in school I don't talk about specifics any more.
I think one other parent knows about DS because she volunteers in thier class but she's never said anything.
