[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no idea why so many women would terminate with a Down Syndrome diagnosis. Early tests are great in that they give you time tp educate yourself about Down Syndrome and locate all the wonderful services out there. i had my son with Down Syndrome at 26. 2 more without at 32 and 38. They are 3 boys who are protective and attached despite the age differences. " Wouldn't Change a Thing." (check it out) If you want another baby, OP, and your husband is on board, go ahead. I think the husband on board thing is really key. [/quote] I have a friend with a 6 year old with DS and she also wouldn’t change a thing but that child has had 2 open heart surgeries to correct defects, is weaning from a feeding tube with the help of incredibly diligent parents and extensive OT, and just recently started using the toilet, which was also a long fraught journey. The range of potential complications with DS is huge. [/quote]
