My now nine year old son came at two, with the same prenatal history, and was a handful. He raged and tore at his face and bit us when we tried to hold him, but we loved him so. He was cuddled and hugged a lot in those early years and, yes, he he has some special needs now, but the love he gives us is worth all of it. We are very close and he is wonderful. THanks for your post.
