Our youngest daughter was exposed to cocaine the first 3 months in the womb. She had some birth trama with a not in her cord. She was born real stiff and not breathing, she had to be on a ventilator for 2 days. They do not believe it was a result of the drugs at first they thought it was a seizure but the MRI confirmed it wasn't, At her 3 month check up they were still concerned she was a little stiff and she had a poor suck for several months. But she soon relaxed and caught up and now she is perfectly on target with everything. The only behavioural/emotional issues we dealt with was that she ALWAYS wanted to be held, she couldn't just be sitting on the ground playing by herself even if I was in sight and pretty close to her adn as soon as i left the room for a moment she would screem the whole time in this terrified shriek until I finally picked her up again. But I never attached that to the drug use....just normal baby stuff.
