Patient's question:
Before I was pregnant, I didn't get the Down syndrome screening because I thought there was no such history in my family, so I wasn't worried. However, after the child was born, he was diagnosed with Down syndrome. I want to ask the doctor, what should be done for a child with Down syndrome?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, in this case where a Down syndrome child has been born, it cannot be treated, and it is necessary to treat him well and feed him normally. I suggest that next time you become pregnant, you must prepare for pregnancy and do the necessary checks promptly, especially the NT screening for Down syndrome and the detailed ultrasound. It is best to directly have an amniocentesis for diagnosis. If there are any abnormalities, you need to seek medical attention in a timely manner.
