Fetal Alcohol Syndrome
Maternal alcoholism is responsible
for serious disorders of the fetus and has a very important impact on the baby.
You should know that even a minimal
consumption of alcoholic drink can have serious consequences
Two glasses of wine a day should be
considered excessive.
Fetal alcohol syndrome associates:
- Microcephaly
(the size of the head of the baby is
smaller than normally),
- Facial dysmorphism
that is to say, facial deformities,
- Hypotrophy
that is to say a smaller birth
weight,
- Delayed psychomotor development
- Often behavioral,
- Finally, various more or less
serious malformations (heart, cleft palate, synostosis RADIO ULNAR see this
term, abnormal fingers, eye anomalies, genitourinary organs).
Mental disorders persist in the
adult:
- Mental retardation,
- Persistent character disorders.
The mental retardation is important,
true weakness in some cases.
In addition, the length of
alcoholism before pregnancy is an aggravating factor and SMOKING.
We can never say enough that a pregnant woman
should not drink or smoke. If it still does not take into account this is a
child who will bear the serious consequences
