[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is absolutely not a given. Was this her first child? For reasons that aren't fully understood, first children rarely have FAS, even if the mother drank quite heavily. I am so sorry for your loss, and wish you and your nephew the best. [/quote] Thank you very much, it's been really hard, and multiplied by the fact that the accident was her fault because she was drunk at the time. Luckily, no one else was hurt in the crash. He is her first live birth. She gave birth to a stillborn 2 years prior. [b]At 3 months, should do you thing there be signs already if he does indeed have FAS[/b]? [/quote] I adopted a child who has FAS. No physical signs until he was 9 years old. My son is not the only child I know who had no physical signs until much older. Sorry for your loss. [/quote] How did you know your child's symptoms were related to FAS?[/quote]
