I just wondered if anyone else in the group has a child with Down Syndrome?

    Hi, good to meet you! My daughter with DS is 10 now :)
    I know what you mean, we concentrate so hard on taking care of our families, especially those who need that extra bit of care and attention, and sometimes lose track of ourselves a little. Welcome to mfp :happy:

    My daughter Lumina is three months old. She has ds and recently had surgery to correct her three heart defects. I am ready to get back to mfp. I have eliminated gluten (our whole family has since a few of my children are effected dramatically by it), and dairy and soy for my Lumina so as to hopefully avoid (or at least postpone) the thyroid and allergy problems that come with these three ingredients, especially for those with ds. Anyone else here using natural remedies and vitamins to help their child with ds? I will be ordering and using NuTriVene D to help her. Currently I give her probiotics and coconut oil daily to help her digestion and weight gain (the heart defect set her way back with her weight).
