He was born at home & our midwife pointed out that he has the single palm crease & that could mean that he has downs. Does anyone know if this is a sure sign? He doesn't display any of the other 'signs' and is very alert & bright. I am thinking of having him tested but not sure if the tests are very invasive? Any information would be much appreciated.

When I was pregnant my doctor did the triple screen and it came back positive for down syndrome. She sent me to a fetal medicine doctor and he told me that she didn't have the looks of a ds child but if she did come out with it you wouldn't beable to tell by looking at her but it would slow her down with everything she does. Is that possible? SHe didn't walk til 15mths of age and she hardly says a word. I have twin god children 5mths younger than her and they say a lot of things. She goes to a specialist for this and I still don't know for sure if she has ds or not. Can you maybe tell me what are some signs I might can look for in a case like this? This child is my 3rd and last. I also have a 10yr old boy and a 5 yr old girl who are perfectly fine no problems with them at all. I'm just wanting to find out and learn more about just in case she does have ds that way I know if she'll need and kind of help with school when the time comes. Thank you! I have a 2yr old daughter.

The variation is: no single line on palm. Larger head and chest, and is growing tall. All other symptoms are present. I have a 15 year old daughter that has many symptoms of being downs.
