Question
My baby is two months old, and I’ve heard about the symptoms of Down Syndrome from other mothers. Since I didn’t have the screening during pregnancy, I’m worried about my baby’s condition. How can I determine if my baby has Down Syndrome?
Answer
The symptoms of Down Syndrome in newborns need to be confirmed through genetic screening. It is not possible to make a diagnosis solely based on appearance or behavior. It is recommended that parents bring their baby to a medical institution for genetic testing to obtain a clear diagnosis.
