Hi, I'm Max and I have Caleb who is just a few months older than your laddie. He is the absolute love of my life too and I wish I'd known how well he would be when he was first born as I wasted a lot of tears and time being upset. Lovely to have you here. xxx

Thanks for that can you tell i'm new here? Well here he is my little angle. I had alot of tears over him and I was soooooo cross/angry that DS was not picked up while i was pregnant, that when he was born i was going to put him up for adoption. But soooooooooooo glad i changed my mind he is just perfect in every way and we love him to bits.

Oh he is gorgeous and looks a little bundle of fun. We had the shock of finding out after the birth too and wasted so much time being upset and worried. if only we could have had a glimpse of how things are now. Welcome to the site xx

Hi and welcome!
How gorgeous is he?!
I'm Jo, I have 4 kids, Lisa is my 3rd and she is 2 and a half . We found out 6 days after we had her that she had downs, and yes, we were really shocked and I was very upset....but that was before i knew anything about downs. It didnt take long to get over, and she is such a lovely little girl....everyone that meets her instantly fall in love with her.
Look forward to getting to know more about you and your family, Jo.x

Hi girlies, With this and Facebook i don't think anything will get done in our house any more let the kids run riot! I have two kids Daniel is 3 and he is a little monster and of course you know Henri, we are going for a third as i want a liitle girl but will end up with a boy. When Henri was born and was told about him having downs my world turned upside down and it took me a while to bond with him, but now i wouldn't be with out him he is trying to stand on his own, so we have to do everything standing quite annoying he is also teething which is causing him great pain. Where abouts in Devon are you Jo? as i used live there for a short while and hoping to move back one day. I was from Kingskerswell my parents still live there. Thank you to all who have voted for him. Must go and tidy up and go to bed! x
