I feel that the last thing she needs is to not "fit in" with her own family. I really think she needs a non-CC sibling so she can identify more with him/her. He/she will be more likely to have the same experiences as her - things that we have never ourselves experienced. I was somewhat interested in the situation I heard about today (CC baby), but when I found out the baby is CC, I immediately thought, "no way".

I honestly think you are making a wise choice. We would have made the same choice. Both our children share the same ethnic heritage (aboriginal Canadian) and we are glad they have this in common.
