FETUS GO TO SMOKE AND DRINK BEERS IF THE MOTHER DID THAT

Fetus is a creature that is highly dependent on the mother, for all their needs met without having to ask. In lean times, fetus will still get what they need at the expense of the needs of mothers who conceived it. Even more than that, in emergencies, food reserves in the mother’s body will take precedence for the fetus than for the mother.

As is well known, that the mother’s body taken out all the needs of the fetus through the placenta. A writer on pregnancy likens the placenta as a garden fence. Fences can not be penetrated by a goat and buffalo but can be penetrated by rats. In other words, the placenta can not be penetrated by large objects such as blood cells and bacteria, but can be penetrated by molecular oxygen, nutrients, small virus, a number of mother’s antibodies and a number of harmful substances.

Alcohol and nicotine are two of hazardous substances that could cross the placenta, so that the fetus also “smoking” and “drinking beer” when the mother smoking and drinking beer. Addictive substances such as heroin can penetrate the placenta. A pregnant woman who uses addictive substances will be able to give birth to a baby addicted to such substances. A pregnant woman who drunkard will be able to give birth to a baby who is also addicted to alcohol.

Drugs are very harmful to the fetus in the first quarter, at heart, brain and facial look is growing rapidly. The most dangerous period is the third week of pregnancy, in which the mother may not even realize that she is pregnant. A number of drugs are still dangerous to the fetus even if eaten in the last week of pregnancy or even a few minutes before the birth though.

Certain drugs classified as very dangerous even if eaten only in small quantities. For example, a course of thalidomide tablets can cause fetal failed to form hand or leg. Though it’s only tablet contains 100 milligrams of the substance.
