LOL well you will keep making babies...LOL
So jealous. I want another. But I have said to Carl if we don't have any more ourselves I want to adopt. Hopefully adopt another baby with Downs. I know Holster has had her health problems, but she is sooo sweet, and has made my life so much richer.
Going to talk to the HV and her social worker about it. Not yet though, in a few years...LOL

I was thinking just the same earlier you know...(obviously I won't have anymore now)...but if I were to adopt, I'd like to adopt a child with Down's.
I suppose I'm not sure what we have in store with Lisa yet, but so far so good, and we're happy to live every day as it comes.
There's no reason she can't be just as healthy as the next person, I suppose I panic sometimes over her, I'm really protective.
You'd never believe the impact of raising a child with a disability would make would you?, I totally know what you mean about Holly making your life richer.
I never in a million years thought I'd have a child with Down's, and even more shocking is how I feel now about it. I never realised how strong I'd be.
She is the centre of my world at the moment, You know the older girls are as well, but Lisa needs me more, more so, for being a baby than having Down's, but the girls understand that and they are soo good with her, Charlotte in particular, has shown me how good she is with kids, Not just Lisa but all kids. I only noticed that the other day!
Your right to leave it a few years, and give Holly the attention she deserves, (aww such a strong little girl!!)
But yeah, no reason why you can't look into it all now, and get prepared.
