Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
The history suggests that she may be suffering from some chromosomal abnormalities like Downs syndrome.
This syndrome does not require any treatment.
The child will be slow in learning with delayed mile stones and mental retardation.
YOU better follow your doctor's advice.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
