A member asked:

Am 18wks pregnant, had my quad screening test on my 16wks& it was negative. is that an assuring sign that my baby doesn't have dawn syndrome?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Reassuring: While a negative quad screen in reassuring, it does absolutely rule out the possibility of chromosomal abnormalities, including down's syndrome. The only way to do that at this point is through chromosomal analysis from an amniocentesis. If you have specific fears about down's. Talk this over with your OB to determine what your specific risk is.
