IUGR??OR BRITTLE BONES

by babylayne, Sep 09, 2003 12:00AM
I had a baby born at 36 weeks ,3.5 pounds with IUGR.
At the age of 4 months it was said he had a total of 18 broken bones including 16 broken ribs , a broken femur, and a telescopic fracture of his humerous.
I have never abused my baby and i dont feel that anyone whos been in contact with him has either.
My baby was conceived on clomid (fertility drugs), i had gestational diabetes and severe preclampsia, toximia. I was sicker then him .
Doctors are saying he does not have OI (osteogenesis imperfecta) but i dont know . Hopefully soon his records will be sent to the shriners hospital in Montreal Quebec.

Can you please help me try to figure out what is wrong with my baby .Or give me some other explanation as to what is happening.
For I do not have my baby in my custody of course and he needs to be home with me A.S.A.P.

                                     THANKS AMBER

I doubt there is anything we can tell you that the doctors can't, sorry. Only time will tell what is going on and hopefully the answers will come soon.

I pray that no one has ever abused that child, for a person that could hurt a baby has no place in this world.

If there is indeed a medical reason, they will discover it soon enough. You must have faith.

Ditto what Andi said.

If there is a medical reason, it will eventually be known.
