Emily Hicks PSY 240 Prenatal Development Word Count- 346 Prenatal care is essential for teenage mothers. Young mothers have an increased risk of complications during pregnancy and childbirth. Teenage mothers are more at risk because their bodies are still growing and developing, making it more challenging to cope with pregnancy. Prenatal care can help identify complications early so they can be treated and do not cause harm to the mother or baby. Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) results from the mother who consumes alcohol during pregnancy. Alcohol in the mother's blood passes to the baby through the umbilical cord. Using the substance alcohol while pregnant could result in a miscarriage, stillbirth, and lifelong disorders. Some of the disorders include Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS), partial FAS (pFAS), alcohol-related congenital disabilities (ARBD), and neurodevelopmental disorders associated with prenatal alcohol exposure. Facial deformities, such as small eyes, thin lips, an upturned nose, and a ridge between the upper and bottom lip, are the most severe. Spina Bifida is a congenital disability that can occur when the baby's spinal cord does not develop properly. This can cause paralysis and other problems. Folic acid is essential for the development of the neural tube. This is a nutrient; if a mother does
not get enough of it, the baby is at risk for Spina Bifida. Prenatal care can help identify mothers at risk for this condition and provide support and education. The first trimester is the most sensitive time for gestation when the baby's organs are developing, and the risk of a miscarriage is higher during this stage. During the second and third trimesters, drinking can cause permanent damage to the growing fetus. Exercise, diet, drug use, and smoking before or early in pregnancy can all affect a baby's growth in the fetus. Exercise can help reduce the risk of complications, and a healthy diet can help ensure the mother and baby get the necessary nutrients. Smoking and drug use can cause severe complications for the mother and baby and should be avoided during pregnancy. Prenatal care is never a waste of time; it could save your life or the child's.
