[quote=Anonymous]OP here. We would not have a second without getting genetic testing done so we are a long way away from having a serious conversation about a second one. But even if the genetics turn out ok, does that tell me everything I need to know? What if I had a second one and he/she turned out to be a jerk? I guess I'm saying that genetic testing will only get me so far in the decision, and I worry that because I have a special needs #1, I will expect #2 to be perfectly healthy which is a poor assumption to make. I may have a special needs #1, but I also have the world's best sleeper, happiest funniest little guy around. #2 could be perfectly healthy but not sleep through the night until he's 2! [/quote]
