Hi, ADHD is hereditary but it is ressessive not dominant. Research
has shown that if one of your children has ADHD the chances are 1 in
3 that another will. So just to set your mind at ease the odds are
you five month old wont have the condition.

Tell us about your 9 year old. What behaviours is he having trouble
with that led to the suspicion he may have ADHD>
