Yep. It was one of her big press release points--she knew it had Downs and didn't abort; doesn't that make her the coolest pro-life person on the planet?! She stuck to her principles in the face of adversity!
Of course, now she's fobbing off childcare on... who knows? She's got a baby that desperately needs stability and constant attention from a person (or more, but at least one) whom he can count on, and Mom's not going to be that primary caregiver. Dad's working full time, so it's not him either. I suspect that Bristol is getting crash-course in parenting, which is going to result in Trig feeling horribly abandoned when she has her own and he doesn't get to be the center of attention anymore.
All of which should be private family gossip, not for public consideration--except that she's running on a "family values" ticket. I really do want to know where Trig gets placed in those values.
