cPJmy doctor says I should carry on with the pregnancy and focus on the "healthy baby" .....I don't care if she is downs syndrome ....what's meant to be is meant to be....if GOd thinks I'm up for the challenge then so be it.....
That’s a beautiful bottom line love. BC-A, Bill’s R®ST

I'm so sad and angry to read this. Of course you want both of your children to live! If God chooses to bless you with a child who has Downs Syndrome, it's because He wants you to have a beautiful, precious gift. I believe this child will teach the world a fine and beautiful lesson. I ache for you. What a horrible choice they've left you with. I will pray for the safety and life for both of your babies. Much love.

Praying for you and for one day at a time, for every day is one day better for their little lungs. I understand your feelings and you just follow what your heart is telling you to do. My second Son nearly miscarried over and over and I spent the last 3 months in hospital. People told me "Oh but you are so young, you can have another baby. Plenty of time." Well, I could feel my little bundle kick and turn and I already knew his little ways. I loved him. I wanted him. and I fought on and he ended being born on his due date and was nearly 10 lbs.

What an awful situation to be in. My wife and I don't have any children, so such decisions would be difficult for me to suggest. I'm just not sure what I would do if my wife had that dilemma to deal with, although it would affect us both. You obviously don't want to risk both babies, so perhaps coming to full term and leaving it up to the Fates . . .
