Katy: (was about pregnancy...question about inheritance)

[Guest guest]

According to the doctors who have presented at the Convention, RSS is

ABSOLUTELY not a hereditary syndrome. It is a congenital syndrome,

meaning it is post-conception anomoly! There is NOT a 50% chance of

getting RSS. Even the UPD 7 chromosome issue (uniparental disomoy)

is only present in 10-12% of cases...

Just curious if it can happen as an insult during pregnancy? Our birthmom

concealed her pg, even from her husband, until the day before she delivered a

6lb, 9oz baby! I have wondered if some of his other issues where because she

restricted his enviroment (possibly not even getting all the oxygen he

needed)...so I would be curious to know how it happens post-conception?

thanks a bunch!

Hi Deb,

I just wanted to say that I personally was told by the genetisist

that it was absolutely nothing that was done during pregnancy

that " caused " RSS. And I was very worried about that because I had

surgery and major treatments during pregnancy. It was just

coincidence. I still wonder but that's what the doctors say.
