If the mother isn't getting all the nutrients she needs, then the foetus certainly isn't getting what it needs, as it all has to come from the mother. This will lead to low birth weight, at least, which is a bad start in life. It can also lead to higher risk of the spina column not fusing properly and other developmental defects.

Can an unborn child have 2 different DNA?

No. DNA (also known as deoxyribonucleic acid) is the material at the nucleus of cells. It is the protein strands that tell the cell how to operate and what to look like and do, etc. The genetic material that is created when a sperm and an egg combine is half from the mother and half from the father. All that DNA could tell you is who the father and mother of the child are, but not the time of conception.

Should science be used to choose the characteristics of an unborn child?

Yes, until the child grows it is going to have the characteristics of the mother or father and it can be changed or new habits or characteristics come to it, non-genetically, as it starts to grow. Science could be used to predict the characteristics of an unborn child.______________________________________________________Just because you can do something - - doesn't mean you should do it.The question of "should" something be done is not to be answered yes or no definitively. It is a matter of opinion, and many people consider the moral consequences and long term ramifications of shaping babies to order. The psychological impact must be considered for not only the child that is scientifically altered, but the other children in a future society who are not. I am not saying that it is right or wrong in all cases, but it is certainly not something that can be affirmed across the board as being without potential problems.Many people believe that the creation of a living being is something that should occur naturally with science only stepping in to save a life, prevent injury, or cure an illness. Some might say that if a mother does not want to alter her unborn child's characteristics, then she doesn't have to. Once scientific altering has been done, the child has no choice but to be born altered, and the child might not want that.
