Drug/ alcohol abuse in pregnant women
- social factors causing drug and alcohol
abuse?
- statistic of children being born to an addict
- All you need to know about drugs
- More than 50% of pregnant women take prescription or nonprescription (over-the-counter) drugs or
use social drugs (such as tobacco and alcohol) or illicit drugs at some time during pregnancy, and use
of drugs during pregnancy is increasing. In general, drugs should not be used during pregnancy unless
necessary because many can harm the fetus. About 2 to 3% of all birth defects result from drugs that
are taken to treat a disorder or symptom.
- How Drugs Cross the Placenta: Some of the fetus's blood vessels are contained in tiny hairlike projections (villi) of the placenta that extend into the wall
of the uterus. The mother's blood passes through the space surrounding the villi (intervillous space). Only a thin membrane (placental membrane)
separates the mother's blood in the intervillous space from the fetus's blood in the villi. Drugs in the mother's blood can cross this membrane into blood
vessels in the villi and pass through the umbilical cord to the fetus.

statistics of female addicts during pregnancy

women
- African Americans were significantly less likely to be in treatment compared to non-African Americans (15,16).
This may be due to experiencing greater barriers to accessing treatment, such as problems with transportation,
childcare, and cost, as well as the lack of cultural competence on the part of health care staff
