Quote #2

QuotePrint
"When you are pregnant, it is important that you watch what you put into your body. Consumption of illegal drugs is not safe for the unborn baby or for the mother. Studies have shown that consumption of illegal drugs during pregnancy can result in miscarriage, low birth-weight,premature laborplacental abruption, fetal death, and even maternal death." The American association made this quote and I prefer this quote above any other because it summarizes the consequences of doing drugs while pregnant! This quotes gives you the ends and outs of how it is to do drugs while pregnant. Along with this quote the website provides you with all of the different drugs and their affect including  everything you would want to know about pregnancy. then it gets in to details about how Marijuana better know as weed, stops the the oxygen supply to the unborn baby. Another drug called cocaine causes miscarriages, premature births, and placenta eruptions. Also along with those drugs there are two more called Heroin and Methane. Heroin causes the baby to be dependent on it; consequently, with out the drug the baby may have relapses. Methane on the other hand, makes the babies heart beat increase dangerously
