[quote=Anonymous]For what it’s worth, we had a baby when our son was three and we didn’t know he had adhd yet. His teachers suggested an evaluation several days after I gave birth to my second child. Thankfully my second child hasn’t seemed to be afflicted by the same challenges my son has had. Nobody can tell you what to do. If you want another, I’d go for it, but you’ll need more help or to scale back one of your careers, take a more flexible or remote job etc. Also maybe do IVF to select a girl - I think adhd and other developmental diseases manifest more strongly in boys and possibly a valid reason to consider family balancing. Good luck Op. having a kid with special needs is never easy.[/quote]
