well the odds are not very high but it dose not mean it will happen again
The odds will increase with the woman's age, the older she is when pregnant the higher the risk.
it has been proven that most babies born with Down's syndrome , the mother was over 40.
Women with DS are less fertile and often have difficulties with miscarriage, premature birth, and difficult labor. Without preimplantation genetic diagnosis, approximately half of the offspring of someone with Down syndrome also have the syndrome themselves
Unless she has translocation (inherited) Down syndrome than No, she more than likely Won't.
As there are several factors working here, it is best to get a specific answer from a genetic counselor. Please see related links for references to genetic counselors.
Increases/ decreases then increases. I really dont know but the previous answer of "answer" was so unsatisfactory that I couldnt just leave it. Please improve this answer.
On average, about 1 in every 800 babies born have down syndrome, but this rises dramatically with the age of the mother, to around 1 in every 100 babies born to mothers that are 40 years old.
more likely than a "regular" person because its already in thier blood
Women with Down Syndrome are frequently unable to conceive (50-70%). Their children have about a 50-50 chance of having Down syndrome.
No.
No, the chromosomal difference between cattle and humans would prevent a human female from conceiving a fetus with a bovine male.
Klienfelter SyndromeKlienfelter Syndrome causes a male's breasts to develop much like a woman's. It raises the chances of breast cancer for that male to almost equal with the chances for women.
You might not feel the baby as early as you would feel a child who does not have Down syndrome. However, the fetus will move at about 14 weeks. One interesting fact a lot of people do not know is that most women who are carrying a Down syndrome child never experience any morning sickness whatsoever.

You dont need any thing other then a women and man, haveing twins is a random thing. Essentially, the above answer is correct. However you can increase your chances of conceiving twins through certain fertility treatments.
zero to none
yes beet root can increase your chances of conceiving. It also helps you increase your sex drive for men and women. Beets are also a natural blood cleanser and it helps balance out the estrogen in a women body and helps support the ovaries from producing hormonal cyst
not really, it is performed on a pregnant women to determine the chromosomes in the fetus to make sure it is normal and not have Down Syndrome. It can also be done to determine the sex of the baby.
Right away. Many women miscarry without knowing they are pregnant.
There is no effect on a developing fetus and, in fact, lactulose is often prescribed for pregnant women.
No, it's MUCH higher than that. That would be the chance for a 35 to 40 year old woman.
Experts recommend genetic counseling for persons with a family history of Down syndrome who wish to have a baby. A woman's risk of having a child with Down syndrome increases as she gets older. The risk is significantly higher among women age 35 and older. Couples who already have a baby with Down syndrome have an increased risk of having another baby with the condition. Tests such as nuchal translucency ultrasound, amniocentesis, or chorionic villus sampling can be done on a fetus during the first few months of pregnancy to check for Down syndrome. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends offering Down syndrome screening tests to all pregnant women, regardless of age.
