I have 45.5 chromosomes, but they dont know my disorder.. my long arm on one of the chromosomes is deleted. Its so rare that me and my sad are called the genetic mystery by our doctors.

[@adriennehiggins88]

My son has q21.1 duplication on the x chromosome. Still no answers and genetics has no idea what it is and how it will affect him.

One of My daughters has 14q deletion syndrome and my other daughter has duplication of chromosomes of 17 and 19. We have not found any information on duplicate chromosome 19

Didn't faced u any anomaly on scan or growth restrictions in third trimester..??

[@brandysax]

@@user-pr2uf4ck9e actually with my 1st daughter she was born at 34 weeks because I had preeclampsia she weighed 4lbs 4oz we didn’t find out about her chromosome syndrome until she was 3years old. With my 2nd daughter she had some growth issues early on she was very premature born at 26weeks and yes we faced complications very early on because my blood pressure was hard to manage that caused my placenta not to work properly which was a result of growth she was 1lb 5oz my son it was the same he was 1lb 7oz and is completely healthy with no chromosome or development issues what so ever.

@@brandysax after 2pregrancy ur 3rd pregnacy was healthy, giving some hope.. Does ur doctor told its paternal or maternal side issue while fertilization

[@brandysax]

@@user-pr2uf4ck9e we didn’t have any issues with fertilization. I have 5 kids every one was premature. 3 of my kids have no chromosome abnormalities and no disability or no special needs. My second pregnancy my daughter with 14q deletion syndrome her genetic issues are not inherited. My 5th pregnancy my daughter has duplication of chromosome 17 (CMT disorder) which may or may not be inherited. And duplication of chromosome 19 which is not inherited but we don’t don’t have information on that chromosome. Aside from all that and having sickle cell she has been healthy and developing just fine she is currently 2. Faith and prayer goes a long way if you believe it will.

Ok what happens when kids have chromosome disorder

[@mysterfan7649]

In mostly the ones with trisomy have a shorten life expectancy . All of them will get an help with Occupational , Physical and Speech therapy usually and have a lot of surgey to lived in a "normal " life . I am not saying that people with 3 chromsome can't make it life it just unlikely too . Every indiviual is born different by the way . Once school start they have to used IEP for services.
