So you would know if your kid had it, right? [/quote]

My kid was diagnosed at age 4. Pediatrician had not noticed.

Not sure why you say moms and not dads, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.  We did not notice anything.  Our pediatrician mentioned calling Early Intervention when DD wasn't crawling or getting out of a seated position at 10 months.  Some babies have hypotonia from birth like PP and the floppy baby, but it took us a while and the pediatrician said something first.  [/quote]

There are different degrees of it.

Not every kid has a dad, but thanks?[/quote]

Then say "most parents".  You are putting the burden on the mom.  Not every kid has a mom, but thanks?[/quote]
