Doctor, I have so many questions.
Whatever your questions may be, I am here to help.
I have been told that my baby has Down syndrome. What does that mean and is it my fault?
“Down syndrome means your baby was born with an extra chromosome — something that happens before birth.”
Down Syndrome is usually random it is not the fault of anyone.

I did some research online and I discovered that the age of the mother is a factor. I was 40 when I gave birth.
It is great that you did some research. I am happy to give you context. While maternal age is a factor, paternal age, and very frequently, a random error during cell division can also play a role. That is why it is said to be random.
Everyone has chromosomes, which are tiny instruction books in our cells. Normally, we have 23 pairs, but in Down syndrome, there’s an extra copy of chromosome 21.”

“This extra chromosome changes how a child develops — in learning, movement, and sometimes health, like heart differences.”
Thank you so much for this information. I feel more informed and prepared.
“We provide resources, support, and early care to help every child thrive.Early intervention and support make a huge difference. The QR code will give you information on support that exists in Canada. You are not alone.
Your baby is more than a diagnosis, and you are not alone on this journey.
