I am 9 weeks pregnant and my husband has mild TS and ADD. I do not believe that there is any family history on my side. Does anyone know if there are prenatal testing or preventive measures that I can take to reduce the severity of possible symptoms? Plainly, I would like to know about probability and how individuals dealt with these same worries.

Now that is a very interesting question!

 

We know that supplementation helps children from a very young age , but what about "in utero"

 

Hopefully Dr Rogers will answer this very important question for you.

 

I would just like to congratulate you on your pregnancy and encourage you to continue this pro-active search for knowledge. You are going to be a wonderful mother!

Jennifer, sorry for the delay. I was out of town.

 

I understand your question and if you will write to me at Sheila@Latitudes.org and put "prenatal" in the subject line, I will try to get some information to you. (Will have a couple of questions to ask first, which I will do in the email.)

 

We can then share generic recommendations later on the site.

 

Hope you are feeling OK so far! Sheila
