I know of one mom whose daughter was still quite immobile even at 12 months, but after taking the same supplements as I, is learning to stand unsupported by 15 months.<br /><br />If those supplements happen to help in terms of learning development, then good. If not, I just want him to grow up healthy and strong. I'm not trying to push my son, but we moms try to help any way we can.<br /><br />Maybe I'm not addressing your question. I don't know. I'm just 10 weeks in my journey to understanding what the effects of Down syndrome has on my son, as well as on my family.Lornahttp://blogofrugrats.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1988123118197067183.post-69974691347252989092010-08-29T23:45:50.855+10:002010-08-29T23:45:50.855+10:00Great questions.

I continually work to detangle my aspirations for him, from his wishes and the future he will ultimately crate. I can learn a lot from him, and need to remind myself of this, from time to time. Everything happens for a reason, in the end. Nice post.Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15518385586610926148noreply@blogger.com
