Welcome Kari ! Tristan is cute... as soon as I saw Susan's post regarding his picture, I had to run & see him ! This site is sucha great find. I found it 4 years ago when my daughter Erin was born. I learned so much and felt so informed after coming here. And now the format is even GREATER than it was then..... you can find old posts & look at topics that have been covered.... of course we'll always recover & rehash a topic over & over again anyways !!! Like you, Erin is my 3rd child as well... welcome & we look forward to seeing & hearing more

Kari, I would also like to welcome you here. It wasn't too long ago that I was in your shoes as a newcomer. I had identical twin boys with DS when I was 32. Justin is now 18 mos old and Jordan passed away at 13 days old. This has been an excellent place to share experiences, ask questions, vent, or just compare notes. I think you will be very happy in this family. BTW, your little man, Tristen, is such a little cutie tootie.
