A HPLC test done on the baby's blood sample will tell if the baby is thal. minor or not. Other than that some man with superpowers can only tell if the baby is thal. minor or not. There are 50 percent chances that your baby is normal or you can say that there are 50 percent chances that your baby is thal.minor.
