It is very unlikely that two people with Down syndrome are able to conceive.

Most males with Down Syndrome are infertile, with only 3 recorded instances of a down syndrome father being able to conceive.

Most females with Down Syndrome have both conception and birthing problems, leading to a high miscarriage rates for those who are able to conceive. Females with down syndrome have much lower fertility rates.

What are the chances that a sibling of a Down syndrome brother will have a baby with Down syndrome?

After having one child with Down Syndrome, the likelihood of having another is about one percent. If the first child's Down Syndrome is due to translocation trisomy 21, the likelihood of another Down Syndrome child increases. As far as researchers know at this point, Down Syndrome is not attributed to the parents' behavior prior and/or during pregnancy or any environmental factors. The incidence of Down Syndrome does rise if the mother is older than 35, but it does not account for a large number of Down Syndrome children. Since more women are having children at ages younger than 35, then number of babies born with the syndrome is higher in younger age groups.
