  • Hi Misty, my name is Charlene and I have a 5 month old son, Braiden, who has DS. I wouldn’t trade him for anything, he is such a sweet boy, he’s strong and he tries so hard and he’s doing amazingly well so far in his development. I look forward to hearing more about Ty and how he’s developing. Your intro. caught my attention; you sound so strong and so passionate … I look forward to hearing more from you.

  • Small update to my post of 2/8/09. I had a blood test last week and found that my hormone level was too high, so that means that PGD and IVF (with my eggs) is out. I never really thought about donor eggs, and don’t know if I want to think about that either. I think we are just going to ”give it the old college try” and go with what God has planned for us.

  • Hi Misty,

    Glad to be one of your friends here. My son is 6 months old. We never knew of his ds condition until he was born. I was never disappointed or blamed God for it. I was more afraid for him, of how he will cope when we are gone.

    However, with ds or not, he is a sweet boy. His nanny would always comment, he has the cutest smile she’d ever seen..

  • Hi Misty

    I like your name. Here Mis(h)ty means Sweet :)
    My baby would be turning 7 Months in next month.

    How is Ty doing?

  • Hi! I will be 40 this March and my husband and I want Samantha to have a sibling. We found out that Samantha had ds after she was born. We always knew we wanted to have more children. We are currently going forward with IVF and PGD (Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis). It may be playing God a little bit, but with our age(s) and with Samantha having ds, our odds of having another child with ds is much higher. I had to wait to switch insurances, so that more of the tests were covered, and even that isn’t a guarantee (we can still be denied coverage). PGD in itself is no guarantee either. It’s a huge crap shoot. I wish anyone looking to add to their family all the best of luck. Samantha is one amazing child and I look forward to every milestone she accomplishes!
