I wonder if Mosaic Down syndrome is actually more common than we realize. There are many people with Trisomy 21 - I bet it’s more common than science is currently testing.

I love the fact that your geneticists were so interested in this genetic mystery that they just did the testing for free- I can totally picture doctors sitting around going “I HAVE to know! Let’s just cover the test ourselves!” 😂

As a geneticist, that’s WILD. Really interesting. Are the planning to publish a case study? And how are you kiddos doing?

As a nurse, you’re saying it correctly

Not the geneticist being too curious to let you not get the test so they paid 2000$

I don’t understand the American perspective at all. Why did you have 5 pregnancies before the age of 25?

I’m more in awe of 5 pregnancies before 25 than anything.

i cant believe having 3 kids with trisomy 21 doesnt qualify you for genetic testing with your insurance

After that first miscarriage I would have thought your OBGYN would have referred you for genetic testing.

Also as another geneticist, your story is fascinating. Glad they covered the test for you and happy your kids are doing great. Hoping for health and happiness for you and your family.

The cash-grab US healthcare system is bonkers.

I wonder how many people have a similar condition, but go their whole life without knowing? This is so fascinating! Thank you for sharing your story.

People in the comments sitting on their high horse but not realising they are also one mis-step, one car crash, one accident etc away from being disabled themselves

Woah some comments here are feral. I had a son with T18. The decision to keep a pregnancy is very personal and should only be the choice of the individual not the public. May your babies be happy and healthy ❤️

All of our children have had DS. We have had two live births with DS and 3 miscarriages. My wife has translocation of her 14th & 21st. We also adapted our 3rd who also has DS.

I'm amazed people continue not to care about doing genetic tests for compatibility etc before having children

So in hospitals and doctor’s offices they say “bew-cal,” but if you go to a dentist or orthodontist you’ll hear “buckle.” I think it’s just one of those words like either or neither where we’re all right!

My husband has Mosaic Neurofibromatosis Type 2 - they tested him three different ways and they came back negative and then they tested a nerve out of his spinal cord and it was positive. He only gets tumors in his brain and spinal cord.

Some of these comments are horrible. I’m so sorry. Suggesting it’s not ok for someone to have a child because they may have a disability is ableist. It’s ok to be disabled people! It’s ok for disabled people to exist in the world. Be kinder.
