What Disabilities Are Associated In People With An Extra Chromosome?
Our 40 yr. old daughter has an extra chromosome. Her physician said it is not Down s. She is in the beginning of her last trimester. The 19 week ultrasound looked normal. Is Trisomy the only other disability associated with an extra chromosome? Are there any cases in which the baby is OK? YYYY@YYYY
