[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 412374"] I don't expect it to really explain anything. There's no telling what it is, or if it's even something that actually exhibits itself. Could be why there's 6 permanent teeth that haven't developed, or that her eyes change color like mine, or the fact that her hair has stripes (yes, actual stripes on each strand, you have to look close to see it, her father's hair is the same way). It's on the 9th chromosome, by the way. I know my bio-mom has an extra chromosome or some such abnormality as well, but I can't recall exactly what she said about it and the letter it was in got destroyed, so I'm wondering if this is the same thing. Whenever an abnormality shows up, they do parental testing for the same thing in the parents as an add-on. While obviously her father isn't here to do it, we went straight over the lab next door to the genetic doctor to do my sample, and I set up an appointment to get a more in-depth profile on me, too. They're going to try to ram through the pre-approval on my insurance before my appointment so that I can go right to lab for it that day instead of having to make a separate 50 mile round trip for it even though I don't have a personal doctor yet (takes forever to get a call back here, last one took four days to call back and tell me that doctor wasn't taking new patients).
