Im not sure why in a support group people feel the need to jump down your throat, I apologize for that. If you have questions i would get the specific type of her Ds and take it to your OB, but as you said you are just wondering and still want a child. Good for you
we all take risks in our pregnancies, I to have a child not with DS but my daughter has ADHD, OCD, and a severe anxiety disorder, with aspergers autism. I too looked into what the statistic chances are and we talked about what to do when we have another and the child may or may not have the same conditions, yes our children are beautiful, but we always need to look into things, prepare, and help them. My Brother has a child with PKU a very rare disorder which afflicts 1 in 15,000 and is so rare for two parents to have the hospital was asking if my my brother and his wife where sister and brother
when they wanted a second child they to went to their daughters DR and asked question of the likelihood and talk about it. they went on to have another that was PKU free and a third that they lost after premature birth. BUt the they did the right thing, like you they talked, asked questions, got info. So I applaud you for taking on a child with a disability and loving her as your own, and asking questions, and looking for info. So I say good for you! I wish you a fast TTC and H&H pregnacy when u do!!
