There's actually an mma fighter by the name of Nick Newell he's awesom. Look him up watch his fights. I don't know why people are saying they're so sorry to hear that this happened to your baby. And you should make up a story. Being born with one hand will only make him stronger and appreciate the things he does have more.

Your baby will be perfect and beautiful ! My moms placenta ripped during her pregnancy with my sister which caused the baby to lose oxygen to her brain , so shes mentally impaired which causes her to have some physical disabilities as well . Shes overweight due to it but none of this stops her from being amazing . Shes so smart and she does her best to stay physically active so I promise this little difference wont hold your baby back from being thebest !

My husbands cousins little girl was born with only a thumb and part of her pointer finger. She is 3 now and she does great. Seems like a happy little girl!

You were lucky to find out before UE was born. The other day I saw a baby story and the baby was born with no fingers on one of his hands. The parents were really upset that it wasn't seen sooner. But I'm sure he will still excel in everything he does!!!

I heard when they are able to play with toys like a rattle get one with a loop so they can hold it with either hand or arm
