Do your best: Every pregnancy has about a 4% risk of some unexpected event (premi, cleft palate, infection, etc).If you take care of yourself during pregnancy (proper nutrition, exercise and checkups) you are doing all you can to give baby the best chance of being normal.Some couples benefit from consulting with a genetic counselor to evaluate specific risks & the OB offers some tests during visits for these issues.
