When a couple finds out that they are pregnant, all they really want is to have a healthy, happy baby. Amber Rojas from Cedar Hill, Texas, knew that something was different about her daughter, Ami, from the moment she was born.
Amber told PEOPLE, “Having four kids at that point, I knew exactly what every single one of my kids looked like when they were born. But as soon as I picked Ami up out of the water, I noticed her eyes were slanting opposite the way that my kid’s eyes slant…”.
The mom continued, saying “…I thought to myself, ‘I think she has Down Syndrome’”. According to People.com, the mom of five is 35-years-old and named her fifth baby Amadeus. Her and her husband, Fernando, have nicknamed the baby Ami.
The baby was born in September and this is Amber’s second water birth. According to PEOPLE, the mom also notes that throughout her pregnancy she could sense that something was “different”.
On top of something being “different” throughout her pregnancy, she also felt that the actual birthing process was much harder than her last water birth. Her first water birth was with her fourth child.
