Unexpected Turns…

DM

Well we had been trying for baby #2… it hasn’t happened and the process has been hard on me emotionally.

We took our son to a neurologist per referral from his pediatrician. We knew there was something wrong or different about him. I always told his doctors and they would say it’s a delay it’ll get better overtime, he needs exposure to more kids etc. .. And now he’s getting genetic testing and we are awaiting results for possible diagnosis of dmd ( Duchenne muscular dystrophy) As you can imagine it’s been hard just waiting . It’s been 3 days and I often break down crying in my car.

I got irritated when a nurse said “ God doesn’t give us more than we can handle…” I believe in God but I hate that… I feel like I’m dreaming.

Now depending on what the results are I may have to get genetic testing. I do not know about baby #2 anymore… My s.o is very distant and trying to process what was said about our only son. I don’t blame him for being distant, we do not know how to feel. I don’t even know what group to post this in but I just needed to post it.
