I found a source that said when a mother is 40 the risk of having a baby with Down syndrome is 1 in 100, so I wonder if after age 35 when it is 1 in 365 the risk continues to increase. I did a presentation on Turner syndrome in a developmental disabilities class, it is a very interesting condition. I find it interesting that there are certain syndromes only present in males or females, it totally makes sense scientifically it is just something that intrigues me! I agree with what you said about it is hard to know at this point whether you would consider it. I think it is all very circumstantial and personal to the individuals considering it, and who knows if my thoughts on it now will be the same in 20 years when I am 40!
