The problem occurs in the stages of cell division in early embryonic development. Embryonic development is the process in which the embryo develops. As a result, While most people have a pair of chromosome 18, children with Edwards syndrome will have 3 copies of chromosome 18. ]]> 2019-03-29 21:25:12 UTC https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346708843 reagan_reynolds https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346710130 The Prenatal Testing that is used to identify the disorder is an ultrasound by the doctor during pregnancy. Other methods that are used to test this are taking cells from the amniotic fluid or placenta and their chromosomes are analyzed.]]> 2019-03-29 21:35:15 UTC https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346710130 reagan_reynolds https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346710265 https://www.babycentre.co.uk/a1024183/edwards-syndrome

Less than 10% of the babies that survive reach their first birthday. Some effects of Trisomy 18 are a small, abnormally shaped head, a small jaw, and clenched fists with overlapping fingers.]]> 2019-03-30 01:05:46 UTC https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346728278 tyler_fieux https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346728732 Edwards Syndrome can happen in both male and female infants at birth. It is  not very common and happens in about 1 in 5000 born infants. All women of all ages can have a child with Edwards Syndrome but the disorder is more likely to come along in older women.]]> 2019-03-30 01:11:00 UTC https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346728732 daniel_ramirez41 https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346729150 Edwards Syndrome (Trisomy 18) has no treatments or cures and is usually fatal before birth or within the first year of life.]]> 2019-03-30 01:17:19 UTC https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346729150 tyler_fieux https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346729457 The life expectancy of a child with Edwards Syndrome is non predictable. Most babies will not survive to birth, but if they do they will only live a few days to a few weeks. About 1 in 5 children with Edwards Syndrome will live for 3 months and about 1 in 12 will live up to a year.  ]]> 2019-03-30 01:21:33 UTC https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346729457 tyler_fieux https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346733271 2019-03-30 02:21:58 UTC https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346733271 tyler_fieux https://padlet.com/tyler_fieux/2yqxfmac8hhw/wish/346734722 Trisomy 18 support groups are groups of people who recognise the children whose lives were lost lost either at birth or close to it. They raise money and awareness for children with Trisomy 18 and believe there will someday be a solution or cure.

There have been a rise of research on the Edward's Syndrome throughout the years. There have been many tests that can be taken before the child is born but there is not much that you can do for a born child. Many children don't survive with Edward's Syndrome making it harder to do trials.
