If you smoke, drink alcohol, or ingest caffeine, so does the fetus. If you use marijuana or crystal meth, your fetus also feels the impact of these dangerous drugs. And if you are addicted to cocaine -- also called coke, snow, or blow -- you're not only putting your own life on the line, but you are risking the health of your unborn baby.. The consequences of using cocaine include heart attacks, respiratory failure, strokes, and seizures. And these life-threatening health problems can also be passed to an unborn baby.]]> 2016-10-24 11:42:14 UTC https://padlet.com/latoyamanuel23/nxp6fxv87dho/wish/132653130 latoyamanuel23 https://padlet.com/latoyamanuel23/nxp6fxv87dho/wish/132661961 2016-10-24 12:23:16 UTC https://padlet.com/latoyamanuel23/nxp6fxv87dho/wish/132661961 latoyamanuel23 https://padlet.com/latoyamanuel23/nxp6fxv87dho/wish/132664331 2016-10-24 12:31:05 UTC https://padlet.com/latoyamanuel23/nxp6fxv87dho/wish/132664331 Babies suffer from mothers being addicted  latoyamanuel23 https://padlet.com/latoyamanuel23/nxp6fxv87dho/wish/132667832 2016-10-24 12:43:05 UTC https://padlet.com/latoyamanuel23/nxp6fxv87dho/wish/132667832 latoyamanuel23 https://padlet.com/latoyamanuel23/nxp6fxv87dho/wish/132676814 Babies born to moms who use drugs often have problems later in life, including:

  • Not being able to get pregnant. This is called infertility. 
  • Problems with the placenta. The placenta grows in your uterus and supplies your baby with food and oxygen through the umbilical cord. 
  • Preterm labor. This is labor that happens before 37 weeks of pregnancy. 
  • Miscarriage. This is when a baby dies in the womb before 20 weeks of pregnancy. 
  • Stillbirth. This is when a baby dies in the womb after 20 weeks of pregnancy.
