No anal Openin, anyone else....

[Styling]

As some of you know..Baby Kayla has 7 different birth defect with seem to be non related....During my last ultra sound they found birth defect #7..she has anal opening....1 in every 5000 babies are born with this yet most parents dont know until after birth. Due to Kayla problems they did a check to see and it wasnt there....

Anyone else having a baby with no anal opening? If so what have the doctors told you about fixing the problem?

I know a child that was born with this and I think they just had a stoma after birth. Once they are healed and settled, it is just a new way of life that you are used to.

My son will need a stoma and has had catheters since birth. For me it is no extra hassle, it is just different. I still take him to the toilet like any other child, but no one knows what happens behind the door. It is very easy and I know no different. It should not affect his lifestyle in anyway.

The stomas are so discrete these days that no one will know it is there.
