druggy sister is prego!
my 28 year old sister just found out she is pregnant. she has a very healthy 5 yr old boy and 3 yr old girl. i think she only meant to have them and no more, so im sure this was an accident. however she is very excited and so are her kids =] the only thing im worried about is..she is a heavy smoker, and drinks often too. and..she smokes pot occasionally =[ shes not the best influence on her kids right now, but what im most worried about is that she wont be able to stop with the drugs now that she is pregnant. I know its addicting and hard to just..stop! but do you think the fact that she is pregnant might make her just stop? what do druggy people do when they get pregnant! im so worried she will continue this all, and have a baby with many issues. is this possible for her to stop and get healthy!?! i know everyone is different, but like what do most people do? thanks!

A heavy smoker and drinker=most likely NOT healthy babies
It's bad enough if you have someone who eats junk food their entire pregnancy, but alcohol, smoking, and pot? That can be so unhealthy for a baby. You need to tell her the effects because she's much too excited to have a baby when there's a chance it can die. If she stops now, as in right now, and start creating much healthier habits, her baby could be healthy. And if she stops now, she might as well stop for the rest of her life. Do you understand how bad of an influence she is on her kids by doing those things? They could turn out just like her. Monkey see, monkey do. PLEASE talk to your sister, I don't want her to lose her baby or know that her kids turned into alcoholics.

Yes, it is possible for her baby to be healthy, but she needs to stop RIGHT NOW. Explain to her that she can LOSE HER BABY if she continues to drink/smoke [pot]. She will not even have a baby with 'issues' to begin with, she will likely have a miscarriage.
You need to explain this to her.
