Post 54. Co-signing and being a guarantor are two different things. Every co-signer is a guarantor, but not every guarantor is a co-signer. If you pledge to repay a debt of another without the possibility of personal return, then you are the co-signer.
About 6,000 babies with Down syndrome are born in the United States every year, and the national population of people with DS is estimated to be 400,000. Babies with DS and typically developing infants are more alike than they are different.
This is because older mothers tend to have fewer babies. The likelihood that a woman under age 30 who becomes pregnant will have a baby with Down syndrome is less than one in 1,000, but the chance of having a baby with Down Syndrome increases to 1 in 400 for women who become pregnant at age 35.
