Does Using Meth During Pregnancy Affect The Fetus?

A friend of mine just found out she is 19 weeks pregnant, and she has used meth about 3 times within those 19 weeks lasting about 3 to 4 days each time. She s scared that the baby will be affected. The ultrasound showed a healthy baby and good heart beat but could it have hugeentails affects. What about showing up in the baby s system?

Hello, after about 3 weeks that is between 22-25 weeks of gestation get a 3D ultrasound done and check out for reports.
It is a very good investigation and will give you all the desired information.
