Sweden
I'm a 26 year old mother from Sweden. I´m sorry if my english isn´t so good but I hope that you will understand what I´m writing about. 7 weeks ago I gave birth to a lovely girl. She was very cute but I felt there were something wrong with her.
I told the doctor that she had mongolian eyes. After two days they came into my room and told me that they wanted to take a test on Emma. She could have DS but they thought that she didn´t have it because she didn´t have the most characteristic symptoms. But I knew that she had DS. I were very sad and didn´t want her. But here in Sweden does people think that I´m crazy because I had those feelings. Everybody said that she is my daughter and I had to take care about her. I love her very much but I am so scared what`s going to happen in the future? Am I strong enough? Many questions and no answers!
Today is the first day that I really realized that I always will be her mother whatever happens in the future. She is so nice and develops very good. I hope I can write back in a few weeks and tell you that I`m a litle bit more happy that I had Emma as my daughter. And that I can exept what happend to her just like her father can do. Maybe it´s more difficult for us mother´s to accept.
