I don't know anything about primative reflexes, but we've been going to Greenspan for years, and he believes a lot of autism and other developmental disorders are based in the central nervous system, which controls sensory perception. The environmental factors definitely aggrevate things.
If your son had a lot of antibiotics, you may want to consider adding treatment for yeast overgrowth in the gut (Nystatin, etc).
Try these books:
Is this your child? by Dr. Doris Rapp
The Child with Special Needs by Dr. Stanley Greenspan
Also see www.icdl.com. There is a section where you can see ICDL Guidelines online. The diagnostic section is particularly interesting.
Good luck.
