Anyway, Kristi, I just want you to know that just because your baby has D508, it doesn't necessarily mean that he will be sicker. My daughter Sian (pronounced " Sharn " ) has 2xD508. She has never been hospitalised with respiratory illness, has never been on IVs, has been in hospital 3 times in her life (once for diagnosis and twice for bowel blockage). Why is this? I don't have an answer. But, hang in there. You will have your baby, and he will be the most beautiful, wonderful, gorgeous, talented baby on the planet. (At least, unless he stands next to my children!) Love to all, - Mum to Cate 10yrs wocf and Sian 6yrs wcf, asthma, GERD and ADD Canberra Australia- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
