I went in for a normal delivery and the minute my daughter was handed to me I noticed that her eyes had an upward slant. My husband, mum and cousin were in the room with me and I asked them if they had noticed anything unusual about the baby. They all said that they hadn't noticed anything but I already knew what this was. I barely slept that night. I was on my iPad looking up symptoms of Down syndrome. The next morning, the pediatrician came in and checked the baby. He told me that I had a healthy baby girl and as he turned to walk out, I asked him if I had anything to worry about. That's when he stopped in his tracks and said "I think I know what you are thinking but I can't confirm anything until we do some tests."
