Congratulations! Babies are wonderful. I know you are so overwhelmed right now. It does get better once all your questions are answered. You are so fortunate to have found this board so soon. I just found it a year ago Decembe. I have a daughter that is three years old. This board really helped me to deal with my daughter having CAH so much. I feel it is the unknown that we fear. Once you realize these children can live a normal life your mind and heart will be at ease. She gets Cortef and Florinef. She is considered a salt waster. You need to watch you child closer than you would with a child that does not have CAH when they get an illnesss. Such as a fever, vomiting, severe diarrehea, or broken bone. Besides that, they lead pretty normal lives. Put her in a room with 30 other children her age and you would NEVER know she had CAH. Look at the children in pictures at the top of this page. There is even an adult. They all look healthy and happy to me. They all have CAH. Take this one day at a time. Come here often. Whether you have a question or you need to talk to someone about how you are feeling. That is what this is for. If you would like to chat with someone, I am at dlmack1@juno.com. As far as I know there is not a genetic treatment yet. We all pray for a cure one day, but are VERY blessed to know that at least there is a treatment for CAH. That is a HUGE blessing. I hate that my daughter has this, but I am greatful for the simple treatment. If you do not mind me asking what part of the country do you live? Perhaps someone on this board may live by you and can support you. (You do not have to answer that if you are not comfortable, we all respect privacy) Please ask any questions. We will all try to help you as best as we all can. There are WONDERFUL people here. Gods blessings.Laura
