in mid may brock is going in for an ABR (hearing) he is 12 wks now. i've read some post that mention sedation for an ABR. the doc. didn't say anything about this. do you have to sedate for an ABR? or does it depend on the age or situation? -hope

thank you allisa. yes i've read welcome to holland. it made me cry. i was thinking of send that to my MIL. i want to give her time. i know if she just tried, she would fall in love with him. i hope she does! but it still hurt to have my son rejected for some thing that we have no control over. now i'm not say that i have not had my share of trouble with this (DS) but he is a gift from god and a true blessing. the minute that he came out i made the doc let me touch him before they rushed him off. being 4 wks early and possibily having DS i didn't know if i would see him again. but God has blessed me

this has been a very difficult time for me and my husband. but happy to say that we are stepping up to the plate. i do have to get this off my chest. the responses that we have gotten when telling people that are son has DS have been so mixed. my Friend that I've only known for a year was happy that i had my son and was very supportive in the news of him having DS. my foster mom(the best woman that i know) took such delight in him. it filled me with joy that my mom love him unconditionally. my (unofficial)dad acted like he died. he is not sure how to approach me on that subject but he love to hear the progress that Brock has made. all of my husbands friends reacted as though Brock died. but the one that hurts the most is the responses that my husbands mother(Jeanne) has. when i had my little girl(Vanny) she was the first grandkid and the second girl in (i think) 4-5 generations. Jeanne was so excited about Vanny nobody was able to buy anything for Vanny because Jeanne got it all. and i mean all, like a years worth of clothes. she always wanted to hold her. she even yelled at me the night that i got out of the hospital because i did not run right over to let her grope my daughter. even though she was there threw part of the delivery and everyday that i was in the hospital. now with my son, she was here 1 week, held him twice. Bought him 3 outfits she has since sent Vanny several outfits. it not the outfits. It's what she is trying to show when she does. I'd much rather she spent time with them. the other thing that she did completely enraged me was, she sent me this article that insinuated that this vitamin formula could cure my son. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr i wish she would accept and love my son. he is so beautiful and sweet . my feeling on this is if any one can't love both my kids they don't need to around. does any one have some suggestions ? has anyone been threw this?

hi i just wanted to introduce myself and my son Brock. I've reading all your story's but have had a chance to say hi. i have 2 kids, Savannah who is almost 2yrs(handful) and Brock 11weeks old. he has DS. this has been hard mainly because he was 9 1/2 weeks when we got the conformation from the chrome... Dr. we keep praying that there was some mistake. but there is not. but I'm truly glad to have him. since the triple screen test we knew that it was a possibility (DS) there were a few times that we thought we were going to loose him. the first week of Jan. i was in a major auto accident. 4 days before i had my son i went to Dr. i thought my water broke. she said no it didn't and sent me home. then i had a pre scheduled apt. with a specialist. they rushed me in for an emergency induction. very low fluid. i thank god every day for my son because he was almost not.
i could really use some help. how do i know if i have a good doctor for my son? what should i be on the look out for? i don't know much so any and all info. , direction, suggestions are welcomed

thank you everyone, for your prayers. i'm am happy to say that we are finally back home after 5 days in the hospital. we are doing home breathing treatments but other then that he is doing so much better. the doctors keeped giving us different information about what was going on with brock. we never knew what they would tell us next. the last one they told us was it was some thing viral. all i know is that the oxygen, tubes and wires are gone and they're not drawing his blood 5 times a day now. i'm so happy to be home hope and family
