First of all, I want to say Welcome to the site and I sure hope that we all can help you. We found out about our daughter at birth also and we were actually ok with this. However, we seemed to have a much harder time with her health issues, her heart and wondered about her survival. I did go through a good 2-3 months of depression. I was sad for the child we didn't have, sad that she had to deal with everything as she aged, sad that our family had to go through this....all of it! It was a VERY difficult time for me along with the hormones...Oh my! Well, our Sweet little girl is now getting ready to turn 5. She walks, runs, learning to ride a bike, is working on potty training, laughs, has a WONDERFUL sense of humor, knows her ABC's, counts, has friends at school and is very social. We are VERY happy that we have her and would not trade her for anything. Just know that what you are thinking is normal (I felt great guilt for having some thoughts and didn't want to say them outloud ) and that really with time, you will get to know your son and his personality and soon he will simply be "YOUR SON". I just wanted to let you know that I too had bad feelings/thoughts and I think it's normal to feel a "loss"....Keep your chin up!

Jenn HUGS!!!! Sorry about this new development with Brook. I'm sure it will all work out, she's a strong girl . Damara has had 2 1/2 sets of tubes, T&A but done at different times and has done very well. She sleeps much better and no really loud snoring either! Keep us updated.....BTW....where are you going on vacation???

I would also just speak with them before signing up. I spoke with the people who ran a dance class for the exact reason, Damara was "older" than the other children for that class, however, after speaking with them, they fully understood and agreed that that class would be best for her! It worked out well for all of us!
