Hello,
As there are 2 months of pregnancy passed, whatever possible deterioration of the brain development of the child must have been taken place and the detrimental effects must have been done.
In my clinic, I do recommend to terminate the pregnancy rather than taking the risk of developmental anomaly child at term or before term period.
Due precautions and evaluations are mandatory before proceeding for the third attempt of pregnancy to avoid such issues via genetic analysis and so forth molecular techniques of advanced science.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
