Prenatal substance exposure can have profound effects on fetal development, leading to physical, cognitive, and behavioral challenges. Substances like alcohol, opioids, and cocaine disrupt normal brain development, increasing risks of neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS), developmental delays, and learning disabilities. Long-term effects may include attention deficits, emotional dysregulation, and social difficulties. Early intervention programs, such as occupational therapy and developmental assessments, are essential for mitigating these outcomes. Educating expectant mothers about the risks and providing access to addiction treatment during pregnancy can significantly improve developmental outcomes for affected children. Comprehensive care ensures a healthier start for both mother and child.
