Consumption of illegal drugs or drugs during pregnancy not prescribed by your doctor is unsafe for unborn baby and mother. Consumption of illegal drugs during pregnancy result in premature labor, miscarriage, placental abruption, low birth-weight, fetal death and at times maternal death. The hazards in pregnancy from illegal drugs are manifold. Marijuana reaches the placenta to baby dear . Marijuana has toxins that keep your dear baby from getting oxygen. Smoking marijuana increases the levels of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide in the blood, which reduces the oxygen supply to the baby. There are then behavioral, learning problems, miscarriage chances, low birth-weight, premature births and developmental delays. Your questions like " i smoked pot before i knew i was pregnant" will be stone walled as you are not expected to play Russian roulette with baby dear by taking drugs.
Please remember the same in case of cocaine which is one of the big hazards in case of pregnancy. Exposure to cocaine can increase miscarriage risk, cause placental abruption, severe bleeding, pre term birth, increased chance of premature labor and fetal death. Babies dear of mothers rude who use cocaine during all of pregnancy may have smaller heads and hampered growth.
Babies of mothers exposed to cocaine later in pregnancy may be born dependent , have withdrawal symptoms of muscle spasms, sleeplessness, tremors and feeding difficulties. Learning defects , genitals defects, kidneys, and brain defects are likely. Illegal drugs during pregnancy are best avoided.
Heroine is another of the must things to avoid in pregnancy. Heroin is highly addictive drug that crosses the placenta to baby. Because this drug is addictive, the unborn baby often is drug dependent. Difficulties with heroine taking mother's children's, the more serious ones are possible HIV infection, heroin withdrawal symptoms, intra cranial haemorrhage o brain bleeding and death of the infant.

We hope you have got the message by now that the more you take and the more potent (sic), the drug is, the worse of your baby AND U will be. As far as PCP and LSD hallucinogens, and methaamphetamines we don't need to make the picture any clearer.
