Question
When is the Down Syndrome screening typically conducted?
Answer
The Down Syndrome screening is usually carried out between 18 and 20 weeks of pregnancy. Through the screening, the risk of the fetus having congenital Stupid (mental retardation) and neural tube defects can be assessed. Regular prenatal check-ups are very important during pregnancy. It’s advisable to avoid consuming cold or irritating foods to prevent gastrointestinal discomfort. A diverse diet should be maintained to provide adequate nutrition for the baby. Additionally, it’s crucial to stay warm and avoid catching a cold. Properly scheduling rest and regular hospital check-ups are also necessary.
