My story is similar to all of yours. My daughter Amanda was born 7/24/91. She is the youngest. She has two older brothers. Immediately after she was born my jerky OB/GYN announced that she was a boy, but asked if any of my other children had any problems with their genitals. I said no, and they showed me Amanda's genitals, it appeared to be a scrotum with a penis with an opening at the base. This was no problem to correct I was told. This was 12 in the afternoon. At 7:00 that night when I still did not get to "bond" with my baby because of low blood sugar and elevated potassium levels, which I was never told about at all, I went to the nursery with my husband. There was a urologist there who said "This baby has no testicles". Fine...we were upset of course...but noone made a big deal of this at all...so we didn't quite understand. Day 2 I filled out all the birth certificate information. Recieved boy flowers and announced the news of our third boy to EVERYONE. Day three, preparing to go home, my ob/gyn came in to discharge me, and when I questioned about the "little surgery" for the baby...I was told not to worry about if my child was a girl or boy, but dress it the way I wanted to and worry about it later. I had no clue what he was talking about. Seems the hospital had done ultrasound on Day 2 without informing me of anything and saw a uterus and ovaries. Amanda was transferred over to another hospital and on Day 7, after I got a phone call at 5:00am that my baby was admitted to ICU, we then got a diagnoses of Salt wasting 21 hydroxylase deficiency by her endo that she still sees today. Amanda had reconstructive surgery at 8 months. God has blesses us all with these wonderful children. Amanda has been the strongest little girl I know, and in turn has made me strong.Eileen
