Could you have already caused a birth defect in your child because of medication?
I believe it is not possible. Just be careful about what medications you use and ask your doctor if you have questions. It depends upon the medication, and general answer is YES. Things like aspirin or common medications have not been proven to create birth defects. But in the 50 and 60s, there are many medications that have cause severe birth defects and unfortunately they were only taken off the market after 100s of thousands of birth defects occurred and it was shown why. Street drugs can cause birth defects if taken over extended periods, one being crack which can have some pretty bad things added to it as gasoline or other products. Only take medication that your doctor has given you, do not self-medicate, and make sure he know you might be or are pregnant. You do not fool around with this.
