What can legal drugs do to a fetus?

Answer 1

YES! Anything you do while your pregnant can potentially harm the developping fetus. When you get drunk or high your baby will have the same effects. It could cause birth defects, brain damage, learning disabilities, all sorts of problems. If you want to see some images of thalidomide victims, researche it on Google. Thalidomide was a drug used in the 60's by pregnant women to help them cope with morning sickness. Millions of these women gave birth to mutated babies. These babies had no arms or legs, so basically at their shoulder you would see hands and near their pelvis' you would see feet. Not a pretty sight. The drug was taken of the maket only a year later.

Answer 2

yes it can but depends on the medicine. always get medical advice first before taking anything

Answer 3

Depends on how much you take, if you die the fetus die. Illegal drugs usually damage the fetus or make it addictive and does not make you abort.

Answer 4

The same as illegal drugs, it depends on the drug. Some drugs can create mental instability, others can physically deform the fetus and so on...
