During the first month and a half of my pregnancy, I got drunk several times and used cocain 3 times for the first time in my life. I'm not the partier, but I was hanging out with a different group of people at the time. Since then, I've gotten engaged and settled back down and been totally healthy, eating right and taking a prenatal vitamin daily. I've heard horror stories about what the use of alcohol and cocain in early pregnancy can cause to the baby (birth defects, mental retardation, i.e.) but I've also been told not to worry about it because I've been so healthy since then and the baby was too young for it to matter. I'm too scared to ask my doctor because I'm not known as a partier because I never have been, and I dont want anyone I know making false judgements about me. What's your honest opinion about the health of my baby?
