Kayla is now 15 months old. She is so beautiful! She scoots around the house on her bottom since she can not yet crawl. She is quite fast. LOL! I love seeing her explore.

Hi Everyone. My name is Niamh Mc Ardle, I live in Ireland and have 2 sons, Zach and Alex. Zach is 5 and Alex is 4 and Zach has Downs Syndrome. We didn’t know when Zach was born that he had downs. He passed all the usual paediatric tests and it was only when I looked at him later on that I thought he had some of the usual downs features. I…[Read more]

Great story Niamh…it always seems to work that way, initial worry and concern, followed later by a thrilling life of enjoyment! I know where you came from, my daughter was a 1 in 4,600 chance of having Down syndrome, yet here I am. The support is so crucial so for anyone out there I’d like to add to Niamh’s thoughts by saying GO GET that…[Read more]

Happy to be here and excited to meet some amazing people associated with Down syndrome. Only if I knew how to ”crop my Avatar” then I could post a picture of my little one. I have a long Labor Day weekend so I have some time to figure out what’s most likely something very easy to do!

Hi my name is christina, My son Gabriel has down syndrome. he is two and we are having a hard time getting him to eat. some say it’s because he is picky some say he wants to do it himself. anyone else have this problem? any advice??
-
do you guys go through early on ?? that sounds like a really good question for the ocupational therapist.. they have answered so many questions about that kind of stuff for me.. although now savannahs just the opisite if i let her feed herself she shuvs handfulls of food in her mouth
-
although one big thing for her and eating was she would choke really easy because her muscles were too weak.. so just to make sure hes not struggling i would bring it up to the doc and see if they wanna do some kind of test or the early on therapist could come over and watch him eat and tell you whats going on….. good luck

Any twin parents: How did you manage to juggle twins and older children?-
Hello Jen! My name is Leslie and like you, I also have twins, one with & one b/g. Their names are Rudy & Veronica and my “babies” will be 25 in a week. It was almost 3 years before I ever met someone else with twins when they were born (of course there were no computers then!! lol). Life has been an adventure thats for sure. I will post more…[Read more]

I guess I didnt really even answer any of your questions huh? old age!! lol Rudy and Veronica were full term and have a brother 3 years older so yeah had my hands full. But in a way, that was a blessing because I didnt really have time to “baby” Rudy so he doesnt really realize he’s any different than anyone else. They stopped being “twins”…[Read more]

Hello Everyone,
Here is a link to a pic of Aiden watching television. I would have put it on my album but I am currently having difficulties with uploading my pictures.

Christina,
Are you going to your profile page — selecting Album — Upload? hmm..
Let me know if this doesnt work and we’ll get it figured out.
-
Yes…the problem is when I press upload a red bar appears on the screen saying that I may only upload .jpg, .png, or .gif files when my pics are already in the correct format.

Nevermind, I just tried again and it worked

i need some usefull information for my daughter,s mental growth
-
IF you tell me what your looking for I’d be glad to talk to you. I myself believe that our children with special needs who have love and support excel. There are lots of books and info out there. She is young but you will be able to see as her mental health grows with her:)

Daniel did the commando crawl for a while. He got very fast at it, then he crawled bear style. He skipped crawling on all fours. He started walking at about 2 and a half. Now he is six and runs, jumps, and climbs stairs fairly well.
