Q: Will my child learn to talk?
I have recently had the 12 week routine scan for my pregnancy and results have come back positive for down syndrome. My husband and I have decided to continue on with the pregnancy and we are now seeking as much information about down sydnrome as possible. We would like to know if down syndrome children are able to learn how to talk and if there us anything we should do to help with the development of speech.
