Doctor queried down syndrome in my baby(72 hrs old). echo test is ok, no short hand, no groove between toes, no white spots in eye, mother age 20, ears ok?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Any age mom: Ds can occur at ang maternal age but numbers climb a lot for older moms. If doc suspects some unusual issue it is best that s/he be up front about it and do appropriate screening or specific tests to define it.Proper diagnosis can either relieve you or make sure early treatments are started.
