For example, a woman who is:20 years of age has a risk of one in 1,50030 years of age has a risk of one in 80035 years of age has a risk of one in 27040 years of age has a risk of one in 10045 years of age has a risk of one in 50 or greaterThe chance of having a child with Down's syndrome is also increased if you have previously had an affected pregnancy.source :- <a href="http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Downs-syndrome/Pages/Causes.aspx" target="_blank">http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Downs-syndrome/Pages/Causes.aspx</a></blockquote>
