    Default Just joined today! Mommy to bi coronal Beautiful Sophie

    Hello Everyone,
    I am so glad to have found this site. I just gave birth 1 month ago and my precious little girl was diagnosed with bi coronal cs. I am just processing all of this information and learning as much as possible about what this all means. She is also being tested for 2 syndromes - Muenkes and SC (hard to remember the spelling but I will give it a try Sathre Chozen). If anyone can share useful info, I would be so grateful as I must admit I am still a bit emotional about it all. Thank you all so much.

    Welcome to craniokids! I'm sorry you have to be here on this crazy cranio roller coaster but we will all do our best to support you.
    I know there are a few mommies with kids who have syndromes so they will chime in here shortly I bet. If you have time check out the syndrome section.

    Sophie is a beautiful name. She will do great when her surgery comes, these kids are so strong.

    Welcome to CranioKids! My son was diagnosed with bicoronal as well. At the beginning, when we met with a geneticist, she said Liam had Saethre-Chotzen Syndrome also. But, then the surgeon didn't want to classify Liam as syndromatic because he had too few symptoms. So, the jury is still out on that one. But our stories may be similar, so if you have any questions or just need a friend, I'm here.

    Congrats on Sophie and Good luck with everything! You'll be surprised at how resilient these kids are! :-)
