You might have seen the popular social media trend where people describe a relatable situation and others know exactly what they’re talking about - or at least that’s what we think it means.. So we’re here with a fun game of “tell me you’re raising a child with Down syndrome without telling me you’re raising a child with Down syndrome.” If you are parenting a kiddo w/DS, you might relate to the endless amounts of abbreviations you have to learn (OT, PT, ABA, the list goes on), the feeling you get when watching your child run for the first time, and maybe even buying extra locks for the bedroom doors! We love this community and all the little instances that bind us together.. especially what it feels like to hug your baby with DS! Enjoy the episode, friends!
