It's a genetic gamble.. If you marry another dwarf the chances are greater that you'll have a dwarf but if you marry a average height person your child has a better chance of being average height but it could be a dwarf the best thing to do is research your type of dwarfism and see what the statistics show

I guess there is a chance of it. There is also a chance that your baby will be perfectly fine. I have heard of 2 people of normal height having a baby with dwarfism, and I'm almost sure that 2 people with dwarfism can have a normal-sized baby... but I also think that there is MORE of a chance for your baby to be normal-sized if the father is also normal-sized.

I guess it's possible. But hopefully by then you'll be more comfortable with who you are (re: your last question), and you'll be ready to help your child through it's feelings, if in fact it is born a dwarf also. Keep good thoughts!!

in some types of dwarfism the odds are much greater of having a child thats a dwarf. best thing to do is reasearch it.

Only God knows that, I watched a series about a family that had two parents that were small people and they had normal children and a child that was a small person. I would think that it would not matter, whatever child you have would be beautiful and a blessing. The rest doesn't matter.

It all depends on if the Dwarf gene is the dominant one or not.

I think dwarfism skips a generation, but I'm not sure...I think you can get a percentage test with blood tests from both parents...

It depends. I know a guy that is a "Little person" and his daughter also is, but they have also been known to have children of normal stature.
