Arthrogryposis

Do any of you guys know or have a child with this condition? Yesterday I went in for my 19 week ultrasound. The doctors told me that it looked at those my baby was having problems bending its arms and legs and that it looked like a part of the brain hadn't fully developed. They also told me if I continued with my pregnancy that the baby could die due to not getting the correct signals sent through the brain to swallow. If any of you know about this or have information about it, it would be much appreciated.

    Sorry, no experience. Go through with whatever testing they recommend before making any decisions about continuing PG. My friend's baby had a different condition, and she was advised to terminate( at 20w). After a lot of stress and 2 weeks of testing, it was determined that baby girl is healthy.
