It's normal

If you get the Down syndrome diagnosis it's normal to be scared and full of emotions. Because you have that "what if" in your mind, but don't be afraid you're child is able to do anything they put their mind to. It will just take them a little longer to learn but the scenic route is the best route. 

Don't believe doctors when they tell you that your child will not have a great quality of life, let your child be the one to show you how great there life can be. You can't possibly know how great your unborn child's life can be until they're brought into this world. Of course your scared who wouldn't be you had a picture of the perfect healthy child in your head, your child is still perfect they are in fact extra perfect. Just because your child has down syndrome does not mean that they are down. There is nothing down about down syndrome. Myah is the light of our days she has so much love in her and her smile is heart warming, it can make a bad day good again. Don't let Down syndrome define your child i know it certainly does not define myah. We will not let any doctor tell us that we ruined our lives because we chose to keep myah. We feel so blessed to such a wonderful little girl that gets to call us mom and mami. 

Down syndrome is not as scary as you think it is, in fact it is the most exciting journey we will ever be on. Myah has ups and downs but she does not give up, she tries and tries again until she gets it and works her hardest to accomplish it.
