Question
Lately, I’ve been worried that my child might be intellectually disabled. I’m doing regular prenatal checks. Is there still a risk of intellectual disability? What is the likelihood of having an intellectually disabled baby through regular prenatal checks?
Answer
This is generally not the case. It is recommended during pregnancy to avoid fad diets. Try to eat a diverse range of foods, focusing on high-quality protein, vegetables, and fruits. Avoid drinking beer and coffee. Quit smoking. Stay away from toxic substances and radiation sources. Avoid alcohol, smoking, and tea to prevent colds and other illnesses. Spicy foods should be avoided. If a child is affected by intellectual disability, families must take their child for immediate medical treatment to avoid various misconceptions. Timely symptomatic treatment is essential. Parents need to provide plenty of care and attention to their children and do their best to help them receive timely medical treatment for their illnesses.
