I'm no expert but here's what I understand. Yes it is illegal to use meth. It is also illegal to buy meth. What isn't illegal is exposing a child in the womb to meth. The child isn't a person until born. At least, in the state I was a CASA in that's what they said. I think the mother could be charged with a misdemeanor drug use charge. Pretty rare that the police would pursue that, though. Slap on the wrist kind of thing. There isn't any "extra" crime for exposing the baby. Makes me sick to my stomach.
