My child was born with Waardenburg syndrome. I don't have it. I want to know how did she get it?

The disorder is autosomal dominant, so she would have gotten the gene from either one of her parents. Since not every person has the same symptoms, and symptoms can be very subtle, it's possible for one of her parents to carry the gene without knowing it. Some people with the syndrome have only minor signs, like a patch of white hair, without any difficulties related to hearing or the muscular system.
Consulting with a genetic counselor may be helpful for your family as you sort out this question. Best wishes!
Waardenburg syndrome can skip a generation or as above the signs can so subtle as to be unrecognizable. I read of a case where a woman gave birth to triplets with Waardenburg when there was no known instances of the genetic syndrome

Do you have to wait for child to be born to have divorce?
absolutely not. If you dont have to wait to get married to have a child then you do not have to wait until the child is born to get a divorce. If your question is more concerning child support or monetary issues related to the divorce, a simple answer would be that the amount of child support you may be owed will also not depend on whether you get divorced before or after the child is born.

It depends on where the child was born. If the child was born in Mexico, then the child is Mexican. If it was born on America, then it is American. But technically its both. American and Mexican. Its part of their heritage. Just like people are Irish, German, Polish; they dont have to be born there for that to be part of their heritage.

I think a 50/50 chance. My daughter is 13 years old with chronic fatigue syndrome, and i dont see how she could possibly outgrow it. I also think it may help if the child BELIEVES she is growing out of it, it could help. CHRONICA FAIGUE SYNDROME IS NOT PHSYCOLOGICAL, but thinking positivley helps, and thinking negativley doesnt.
