Re: Unusual question.... can you check?

[Guest guest]

hmm.... Interesting finding.

Actually, our son also have this 'Simian Crease' on his right

hand. He did have tort and right plagio. But after our active repo, he

now only have brachy. (CIA just 4mm)

It is kind of a family thing for us. This 'Simian Crease' - My

father's both hands have it, myself is on the right hand too. And my

husband is on his left hand. But, our daughter does not have it.

Don't worry. Everything will be fine.

From what I read online it does happen with downs kids, but lots of

normal people have it to (although only 3% of the population). Since

you're little one is developing fine, I think it is probably nothing -

but it will be good to see a neuro to be sure.
