Its a genetic defect and nothing can be done to cure it but I will suggest you to accept whatever it is and even the child can live longer

I think you are balanced translocation carrier for chromosome 14/21. In this case in each pregnancy you need to go for amniocentesis at 16 weeks pregnancy to diagnose whether baby has chromosomal defect or not. Or else you can go for ivf with pgs (preimplantation genetic screening) pregnancy.
