Is Smoking Methamphetamine Advisable During Third Trimester Of Pregnancy?

My son s wife about 5 months along and has been smoking weed, meth, cigarettes, and drinking alcohol. She seems to think that she can do all that until the 7th month and it won t be detected. She s not a bright one and she thinks I m only meddling in her business. Apparently she s ignoring all the ads and commercials.

Hi I think drugs should not be taken during any trimester of pregnancy. It can be harmful for the baby and can cause many complications like preterm delivery, placental abnormalities, brain and heart defects in baby and also developmental disorders. So, I think she should stop using these thin. Also get a detailed anomaly scan done to see for any abnormality in baby. Hope it helps.
