“You and your mom were lucky to beat the odds. Good for you both.”
The odds are strongly on the side of having a normal child. The closest they come toward having a downs baby is 1/32 at about 46.

Following the word of God and teaching His values to them will never breed failure in HIS eyes! What we think simply doesn’t matter. God bless this truly amazing and Biblically correct way to raise a family!

Yeah, on some level we were all lucky to have had mothers who could have babies and did have healthy ones.

Not long ago people thought it was OK to smoke while pregnant, maybe earlier than that it could have been considered OK to drink. Knowledge suggests at times we adjust behaviors currently compared to the past.

Downs is one issue.
