NEWBORN BABY AUTISM TEST RESULTS EXPLAINED 

You are so positive always looking at the glass half FULL !!! I think that’s the key to be happy in this life! At the same time you are very proactive as a parent. This channel is one of the best I’ve seen. You are so real and I feel like I learn soooo much every time I watch y’all.

The genetic micro deletions are so confusing, our geneticists said that our children had a 25% chance of having a deletion because birthmom was the carrier unfortunately 5 out of 7 have a chromosome deletion. It is great that your medical team is on top of things and not letting things slide, wishing the best for your family!

My almost 12 year old was diagnosed with serve low muscle tone at under 2 months old and she was and is still delayed. My 9 year old as well so i understand you being happy about that! It is very hard to deal with! Thanks Mama for sharing your life and your struggles ❤️

I'm glad that, due to your concerns, he got so much testing done so early. He's going to be okay. You are a pro at dealing with some extra things and now he'll have all those tests he needs. Stay strong, you are awesome, he's going to be okay!

I just subscribed to your channel and my hat goes off to you and your family! You are a really strong and wonderful Mom!

Stephanie you are a trooper! Glad you got some answers, I love your way of taking one day at a time, not worrying yourself about the future, live in the moment.

You guys are growing so quickly the last two weeks! It is well deserved 👍

We're waiting on our micro-chromosomal array plus 20,000 protein something results right now and I'm always so thankful for your explanations even after spending an hour and a half with a third geneticist hearing it all again. They did send me and my husbands DNA this time too (this is our third geneticist, second time going through testing, but more specific testing this time around) so that maybe will be interesting. Anyways, praying about his kidneys, and heart, and health in general going forward! That is a lot for one day (or one year even!). Thank goodness his doctors ordered these tests!

I think it’s a blessing that now the doctors know what to look for . I have a son who has so many autoimmune things but can’t find out what it is. Praying for you and your family mainly for clarity

Ur a great mom. Drink ur soda, and don't feel guilty

Great attitude! One day at a time. My children are grown and my grandson is a teenager, but watching your videos has made me think about issues my kids had when they were young. Thanks for sharing. Blessings.

Hi Stephanie all I have to say you are a very strong mom. I just love all your children.Thank You for all the information. I am so glad you are sharing all your information with me. We never know we might need it 1 day God Bless you all.

I just want to give you a hug. You are such a great mom and so strong. 💓

So much love to you! You got this mama! One step at a time. These kids are so blessed to have you!

You are very empowering. Thank you for educating us on genetic testing. Has Lex been tested as well? He looked so cute pretending to talk on the phone. Sending you so much love. You can overcome anything mommy!😍😍😍

Amazing your getting it checked. They didn't find my daughter's heart defect till she was 6 months. And they never caught it even though she was in and out of the hospital. Hugs mama! You got this!

Girl,you’re a Rock Star and a hero for your children.Daddy’s Awesome too

I just subbed to your channel cause you're such a wise mom and mainly because your family is just so cute 😇💖 I'm glad you're proactive in early testing. This is key for the best outcome in a child with Autism or speech/cognitive/motor delays. Keep pushing forward. You're such a great example of a mom 💖✨

I know that it is not easy hearing all that but you know you feel better out you find out what is going on. It really bothered me at first when I had my daughter tested for Autism but you know I am glad that I found out that she didn't have it that she was Fragile-X . It breaks my heart every day knowing that I passed it on to her. By the grace of God I got though that. It is nice to see other people out there that have kids like this it helps me know and understand more information about. Thank you so much for your videos they are really helpful. God bless you and your family!!

You have such a beautiful family! Liam will be okay, you are a pro mom. You know what you're doing, and getting testing done early. He's in wonderful hands.

Honestly.. I'm 12 years old but I find this interesting at my age I love BABY sitting.. I love helping out with babies in general Rather they have a condition or autism/medical conditions I know I shouldn't be watching this as half of you would say but this is so interesting how you can do so many things and hear so many things you don't hear or see happen half of the time but you still somehow put it together you aint even SAD or anything your such a wonderful mom Best of luck to you

Those bottles are so cool! I wish I’d had that when my kids were babies. Aw we love you Noah! I love Lex’s hair! Genetics is such a confusing field! Praying that Liam doesn’t have serious heart issues! Glad you got some answers and are being proactive!

You did such an amazing job at explaining everything!

We are still on our journey with Genetics and Diagnosis's and let me tell you, there is no way i would have the strength to film such a real, informative vlog. I truly hope this is the extent of Baby Liams issues. You are a rock star mama!

Praying for you! You’re such a strong mama!

Hard to believe how little time has passed between this baby vlog & the 1 from a couple of days ago with a completely different (still beautiful) baby

Has Alexander been tested for chromosomal deletions?

Omg I’m about to lose it Lex is so cute, I loved watching him on the phone hehehe!!!!! Thanks for making me smile buddy boy!!!

Noah’s #1 fan right here 💚 all the way from Australia 🐨🇦🇺🐨

You are unbelievable!!!!! Loooove your attitude!!!!!!!!!! God Bless!!!!

Waiting for the new q and a with Noah, it's driving me crazy lol 💜💜

God bless you bless your family you are great MOM

I love having autism and autism Rocks

I just now found this Channel , I love your family so cute his curly hair looks like mine !!

You´re so strong, a true inspiration. I send you my best energy.

Awww. Your fans love you too Noah!

My brother is Special Needs with Medical Needs and at first, it is scary. Eventually it becomes a routine and you end up laughing at yourself for being scared. So me right now. Lol Of course I am hoping for the best and your family are always in our thoughts. You are doing such a wonderful job!!! No matter what, I know that Liam is in great hands. ❤❤❤

I so appreciate all the info you share! Will the do genetic testing on Alexander also since he's showing signs of possible autism?Keeping you and your family in our prayers

While scrolling through &watching a couple of vids I noticed you bathe your 2 y.o. in the morning. Then I remembered a different video where you talked about him having a hard time settling down&going to sleep at night which made me wonder why you don't bathe him at night? It's the perfect ritual to get babies&kids ready for night time. It will help to soothe their muscles and some lavender soap will calm them along with the sound of rushing water. Maybe lower the bathroom lights a little, give him a nice massage with some warm lotion after his bath, a bit of warm milk and a nice book read to him and voila. You have one sleepy baby! It's all about rituals and these steps help him to transition, relax his body and quiet his mind. Again, I haven't watched all your vids so I'm not sure if I've missed something.

All of your kids are adorable but i just love me some Lex!!!

Thank you for sharing

Hope you enjoyed your comfort soda! sending good vibes your way from our family

So cute. Fun.hope everything works out good luck with everything

Thank you for sharing, you have a beautiful family❣️

Lex’s curls, mY GOD, they’re gorgeous

Noah is so so sweet ❤️❤️

Noah ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Your a great momma. Is it true about the baby shots can cause autism. I always thought it was from chromosomes. I'm glad you and hubby are having your chromosomes checked

I was binge watching old videos this morning (yes i confess an obsession problem) and you were at 27k and now you’re at 28k!! 😍😍 i noticed with lex you had a carrier infant seat, what changed your mind to just have a big seat with Liam?

How were u able to get the testing? And have ur insurance pay for it?

You are an amazing mom x

My five year old was diagnosed a year ago. He has a follow up and I’ve always been curious about genetics

we are going thru gentics testing as well with my daughter.

Great job mama on telling how it is... ❤❤

My older son and I are missing partial chromosome's 17 and 19 we have yet to get my 7 month old tested but so far is developing normal. But I probably should get him tested anyway. But just like you said our deletion can cause so many things. My oldest has high functioning autism he is 8

Noah isn't having any Hyperphagia? Our first genetic test showed 3 gene deletions on the 2nd chromosome. We know now that Hes gotten older he has hypotonia and Hyperphagia so somewhere on his first test they missed some deletions or he is just that rare. We had ENT appointment today and surgery is scheduled for tonsil, adenoids, tubes in his ears and soft palate revision. Bc of his hypotonia he has severe sleep apnea. Heart and kidney defects are also associated with his disorder as well. Mama, I know it's hard! Breath!

Do your children get vaccinated? Just wondering if your doctors still suggest that they do and how you think about it. I have family members with autistic children and they've each made different decisions based on their families and I know that we can go to any of them and ask for advice and input, which is great! No matter what their choices were all the children are healthy and well loved with much family support. I've fallen down the rabbit hole of your videos and really love how supportive and knowledgeable you are. So glad to have found this channel!

Do you think Noah’s autism will affect you( Noah) getting a job when you are older and getting a girlfriend and living independently or having some independence and doing chores and being able to drive and going to store by yourself and cooking and dealing with your emotions better and daily life ??

I have Aspergers and I couldn't ride a bike until the Summer of 2004

He is so cute

Do you think it is a good idea for my son to get that done... Will mama good luck with lil men do I just got to go to his doctor and ask or do they have to want to do it

I'll bet little Liam is going to be just fine mama! Trust in Him :) Did the genetic doc happen to say what percentage of the population have deletions? Like I wonder if its really common? I never heard of this kind of testing until you mentioned it. I have two sons, one with low muscle tone, and one on the autism spectrum (lowend aspergers). Both had speech issues not speaking until they were over the age of two, but they are totally fine and healthy as can be :)

My mom, sister and I have some similar symptoms, but each of us also have our own issues too. Genetics appointments are always confusing...I have had 5 geneticists...3 of which are working on my case right now. I’m in a research study to have the testing my insurance doesn’t cover, in a program through Yale geared toward rare/undiagnosed genetic disorders. When you have a child, you expect your baby to be healthy...then you find out your “normal” looking baby has a condition they may have inherited etc. Getting emotional is normal and healthy! I still do and I’m 30 with 20+ years of medical issues. It’s okay to grieve. 💜 Another Stephanie 💜

I just wanted to say I think your son could have puv Its a blockage in urinary system I would advice get it checked asap or it could damage kidneys or bladder I hope he doesn't

💁🏼‍♂️🤱🏼👦🏼🧒🏻🧑🏻👩🏽=❤️💪🏻💪🏽

Uhmmm... Whoops... Through half of the explanation part of the video I confused Noah and Alexander... Whoopsies... That definetly confused me xD

Hi landing crew

don't u dare straighten lexie poo hair stephanie,i love,love his hair!!

❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hugs

their chakras and auras are probably off too.

PLEAD THE BLOOD OF JESUS over your You and your family Lives and Health. GOD BLESS.

Lex dhh Ghh denn hmm hmm hmm hmm?

I don't like this at all! Brain scans don't pick it up in newborns.

You totally deserve some emotional comfort! 🥤you enjoy that soda!

I will be praying for your family. It sounds like you are very prepared for the unknown. You handle every situation with grace and you are an awesome mom! Love your family!

You are a SUPER mom. If I could one day be a mother like you, I would be blessed. Your family is so lovely; I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel!!

I think your so awesome Stephanie💜💜 you are so real, I relate to you so much...💜💜

Praying for your family. Im wishing all the best for you. I know you take care of your family very well. Be sure to take care of yourself too. 💜

You are amazing! Believing that there will be NO heart problems! Your kids are lucky to have you!

i’m a child-less teen but i find the videos on your channel so educational and informative. you’re such a hard working mom and i love keeping up with your family. best wishes!!

I have an adult son with schizophrenia and 2 sons with no health issues at all. My son with the health issue has had difficulties since his teen years that went undiagnosed. They just seemed like behavior and impulse problems which affected his brothers greatly. My fear is what happens to him after I'm gone. I have had some serious health problems that started the last year or so. How do you handle the unknown of their futures?i don't see a future that has him being able to care completely for himself. I really love watching your videos. It makes me feel not so alone.

What all is in the Genetics testing? I was thinking about testing my son!

coke zero is my fix with stress lol

You are so strong!!! I wish I could hug you.

You need to take a break hen...

SODA, SODA, Soda gets Mama Mia through the day also #momof5 👶🏼👧🏻👦🏼💁🏼🙅🏽 Your vlogs are AWESOME🐼

Hi

I love your big family!

Youre so amazing! I really should talk to our pediatrician about seeing a geneticist. Might even explain for myself has had struggles as a child and adult as well.

If liam is meeting his milestones now (smiling and what not) isn't that a good sign?

Thank you for explaining the micro deletion thing. Maybe thats why I was diagnose with learning disabilities because of the stupid micro deletion. But I dont know. Heck I dont know if I am on the spectrum. Hopefully my therapist will help me.

Always so positive! When life hands you lemons right? Your boys have the best mama, because she fights for answers and takes the best outlook. It’s hard being strong all the time, sending love and prayers because I’m just the prayin type!

Love y’all 💗💗

Very informative video. I can't remember, has Lex had genetic testing done?

Lex sg Ghh shah hmm bam hmm jj k?

Just found you and your family. I enjoyed your vlog very much and will be back to check on ya'll. I found you to be very informative . Until you I didn't know that genetic testing could be done to try to find where and what might trigger autism. There are a lot of people that are totally convinced that immunization alone is the only thing to blame. I never could accept that. I'm not saying it doesn't ,I'm just saying it could be something else. I saw your vlog about you and Lonnie's story. What a wild ride!! Hold on tight babe, the best is yet to come!!

loooove your attitude. you are such an inspiration! i'm not looking for kids any time soon, but i do have curiosities. my husband has aspergers, and from the stories i have heard from my mother in law, he was hell on wheels as a kid. my hubby says he would rather adopt than have his own because he is scared to pass down what he had gone thru as a kid/young adult. i am very much so looking forward to seeing how you go about the genetic testing! my half-brother had his first kid, and she was born with digeorge syndrome and a lot of heart complications. so i'm just overall trying to educate myself... just in case. i would rather be safe than sorry.

Thank you about being so open about this. Letting people know and be aware if they come across these things themselves in their family. but mostly I love that you show people that not all children with disability are doom and gloom! x My beautiful daughter has a unknown rare genetic syndrome we are still testing for answers and if someone had of told me that this was how things were going to be, when I was pregnant, I may have terminated out of fear and the unknown to me. We did not find out that my daughter had a genetic syndrome until she was 4 months old and they did genetic testing. I'm not lying both me and my husband think she is the most awesome special soul and we actually feel blessed to be her parents. Yes she has disability and medical issues to over come and we are thankful everyday that so far none that can't be treated and despite her hurdles she does well and is a happy little girl. I know there's not a happy story to all children with disabilities though and this can be heart breaking. Showing you and your family's journey with their genetics complexities and talking about the findings is opening people up to the possibilities of family genetics and that not everything is just environmental. I also love that by you allowing people into your family and world, it shows that all doesn't have to be lost if their child is diagnosed with difference.. the journey is different but not always bad. After further testing on myself and husband it has been shown that we have been passing along together, 2 gene variants possibly to our other children, so this has now answered a lot of questions for us about why all our other older children have been mildly affected by autism spectrum disorder, and also we can now let our children be informed so when they have families they have the knowledge to make the decision that truely reflects them and not out of fear of difference or the unknown. Love your channel and your fam 😊 P.S I'm praying for Liam that he doesn't end up having any major health conditions x

I have a chromosomal microdeletion that has led to me having autosomal ( adult) polycystic kidney disease. There's 4 cases of it among my mom's seven brothers and sisters, and I and one of my four sisters have it.. I wish I could magically fix my chromosome issue.. but I can't.
