Social Drugs in Pregnancy
Demon Rum
Alcohol doesn’t discriminate between mother and baby. It’s an equal opportunity drug that easily crosses through the placenta to the baby. If you become tipsy, your baby won’t pass a sobriety test. You wouldn’t dream f giving your newborn a martini, so don’t give your unborn baby one either.
The detrimental effects of alcohol on the developing fetus have been known for centuries. Carthage and Sparta passed laws to prevent newlyweds from drinking so they wouldn’t produce defective children. Thus, it’s not hot news that alcohol can cause problems for babies.
