Does Using Methamphetamine During Early Pregnancy Affect The Fetus?
I just found out 2 weeks ago I was pregnant. Used methamphetamine about 2 days before that but have not used since. I m 19 weeks preggo now. Will it show up in my baby s blood or feces when she is born? I m so ashamed and would have never even touched it if I knew I was pregnant. Help

Hello,
Repeated use of recreational drugs can cause fetal damage including anomalies. Consult a gynaecologist and plan for an ultrasound scan preferably at the fifth month.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
