Just an off-hand comment , on the way to the eye dr's...about how you know there's 2 of everything when you look a certain way? Say what??

I learned about this when my last son was born with small dimples on his spine and my chiro remarked on it and got me wondering so I looked it up more. then I realized the correlation to cleft palate. Anyhow, not that it matters.. lolAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697342377352291278.post-65211397783747211712011-03-30T12:53:02.300-07:002011-03-30T12:53:02.300-07:00does he have sinus problems, ear problems or swall...does he have sinus problems, ear problems or swallowing problems? If not likely there is not much cause for concern. it is good to know that b/c cleft palate so far as I know is a midline defect and is genetic. Some midline defects are nothing more than small little dimples in the spine for example, but in other those dimples can turn out to be complete spinal bifida. It all stems from the same type of defect. This sort of thing is good to know in case your husband or kids ever has any health problems that are related to genetics.<br /><br />That said you should look into it more to make sure I am correct - all this info I have is old from when I was more actively doulaing and so forth. I don't want to lead you down the wrong path.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
