37-pound woman gives birth: http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Health/story?id=1616224&CMP=OTC-RSSFeeds0312 I share this as a woman with OI also (Type I) who has given birth to two children, neither of whom inherited the OI, and also because it speaks to me about just how powerful the desire to have children can be. This woman risked a lot to have a baby. My own risk was not near as much, but still, I could've lowered my bone density (tests seem to show otherwise) having two kids. I could've broken more bones delivering, but I'm clearly not that bad off. You go, Eloysa!
