Personally I'd wait. I would run the karyotype and confirm it before I mentioned Down Syndrome. If they ask about whether their kid is "normal" then I would say that there are a few features that I noted that are consistent with Down Syndrome but I would wait until the tests come back.

Same thing happens in adult medicine. Patient comes in and has a mass on CT, family asks if it is cancer. I usually say that the scan looks concerning but we need a biopsy to make the diagnosis.
