Awwwwwwwww you silly sausage. (((((((((((((((((( HUGS )))))))))))))))))))))
It is sad when you get the little reminders that they are different, but she will get there, imagine when she finally does start to get about how much fun she will have.

I feel exactly the same Michelle. On a day to day basis when i look at Rosie i just see Rosie but when i am with my friends with their 'normal' babies i really the see the difference and it somehow reminds me she has Downs. Its bizarre and i get really upset about it for Rosie. On the up side though it really is special when ours do something for the first time because it is a real achievement (not that it isn't for other babies). If 'willing them' to do something was possible our babies would be flying aeroplanes and performing brain surgery lol. They will do it all in their own time but it is very hard sometimes. Michelle x

Aaaww Michelle I know exactly what you mean. It is hard when you see babies the same age as ours who can do more. We were somewhere a few weeks ago and George was comando crawling around the floor, there was a little girl who came over and started crawling around with him. They were having a great time together then she got up and started running around, George just lay there on the floor watching her. I felt so sad for him. The little girl was 2 days younger than George but seemed so much older. But like the others have said because our little ones have to work so much harder to reach their milestones it is such an achievement when they do. They will get there in the end though xxxx

I know exactly how you feel, i sat in tears at a soft play area because Cameron was in a day dream and not charging around like his usual self and the other kids were, one of them nearly pushed him over as he ran by. It really hits home with me when we're out like that.
Brian says he wasn't crying or upset, he was happy and content in a world of his own.

I think we all feel like that from time to time. I meet up with my post natal group every couple of weeks and all the babies are walking and saying words. Sometimes I feel bad or frustrated BUT I do feel better when the other toddlers are badly behaved or have tamtrums and Caleb doesn't do that. I really want Caleb to mix with lots of other kids so he can get ideas about how to do things - sometimes I watch him watching them and you can see him thinking "I'll give that a go when I get home"

thanks girls i know im being silly but it is hard she watches them sometimes and u can see she is taking it all in lol thats how she started to sit by watching others she desperatly wants to crawl as the lil legs are going mad but she cant get into the kneeling position plus didnt help hv saying shes almost overweight when hosp said she was all in porportion just small. god imagine what ill be like when she does start ill be crying for a week, it helps a bit that there is a ds boy at special need sgroup that isnt crawling at almost 1 but rolls she just goes back to belly lol xxxx

Awwww Michelle. I try really hard not to compare Jasmine to other babies of the same age. I take her every week to meet with the girsls from my antenatal class so they're all about the same age. They have all started interacting with each other now, sometimes Jasmine reaches for them but more often than not she just lies and watches them play. I think she is taking it all in tho. I'll be honest and admit that it upsets me when I see older children of 2 or 3 when they get to the age of being really chatty and entertaining, I think to myself that Jasmine won't be like that and it does make me sad. Having said that, I get so much pleasure from the things she does and I know that she'll always have me and I'll always have her so that's enough! x
