			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I recently returned to work after the birth of Miles. I&#8217;ve only been working half-days, but I&#8217;m still making face-time in the office. Everyone knows I had a baby, so I&#8217;ve had to field the usual questions: How&#8217;s the baby? How&#8217;s Sarah? Did everything go OK?</p>
<p>That last question has been a stumbling point for me. Technically speaking, everything <em>did </em>go OK. The c-section went well, and there were no complications during the surgery. We just got a different baby than the one we were expecting.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been struggling with whether or not talk about Down Syndrome right away with my co-workers.  I&#8217;ve discussed it with the few co-workers that I work closest with, but beyond that, I&#8217;ve been silent on the issue. At some point, I&#8217;ll be bringing Miles into the office, and I&#8217;ll probably become more forthcoming with our situation.</p>
