Red face Baby with Down's Syndrome

Hello there I am Debbie I am 32 years old and am married to Scott 34, we have 3 children a daughter Ricarda 15 years, a son Callum 2 years 9 months and another son Cameron 11 months old.

Cameron was diagnosed with Down's Syndrome at birth, It was hard at the begining to take in what was going on and i like many other people had a preconception what DS actually was and what it meant for Cameron. He had so may tests in the first few weeks which included Chest X-ray, Echocardiogram and ECG.

We have been so lucky he hasn't as of yet had any problems which can come with DS like heart and bowel problems.

It took me a little while to realise that Cameron was just a baby like any other who happened to have DS. It isn't him just a small part of him but weird as it may sound to some i wouldn't have him any other way,

Love Debbie and Family xxxx

Re: Baby with Down's Syndrome

It's great that you feel that way about the baby, because that is what he is, a baby, your baby. I know a few people with DS children and I know a few DS adults, they are such loving and happy people.

Oh! and welcome to FG, hope to see a lot of posts from you.

Re: Baby with Down's Syndrome

Hi Debbie, and welcome to FG.
Your story sure tugged at my heart strings, and I know it will affect others, too. We have a few parents here with kids who have a few different disabilities.
I don't think it sounds weird at all that you wouldn't have him any other way. It's your baby, you love him how he arrived! Makes perfect sense to me.
I hope you stay a while here, there's lots of great people, and I look forward to your input.

Greetings Deb, I hope you enjoy your stay here and feel free to unload anytime you want. I like your positive thinking your son is your baby and you his mother and that is the bottom line. Like BR said some of us parents here are challenged by various child development issues and we continue to be the best parents we can be.
Enjoy your stay in the garden.
