A child with suspected Down syndrome has been born to 32-year-old parents. The parents ask the nurse how the diagnosis will be made, and if there was a way that the diagnosis could have been made during the pregnancy.
 
  The best response by the nurse is: 1. The baby's genes could have been tested during pregnancy by doing an amniocentesis.
  2. The doctor will check the baby's genes by doing a 24-hour urine collection on your child.
  3. Mom's blood could have been tested during the pregnancy to check for genetic problems with the baby.
  4. A swab of the baby's cheek or a stool sample will be used to check your baby's chromosomes.
