Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
This is a very high chance of baby born out your future marriage developing abnormally. Such marriages are not recommended medically. Consanguineous marriages continue to be a critical predictor of adverse pregnancy outcomes in India. This may involve baby with low birth weight or congenital genetic problems by birth as both the sets of genes come from a common ancestor.
