As LM said, if he was using meth when you conceived (assuming he is the father) then there is a chance the foetus could be damaged as a result.

Regardless, why the Hell are you putting your unborn child at risk by staying with a drug user? Prolonged use of Methamphetamine can cause severe psychological and physical harm, which doesn't create an ideal environment for a baby.

I think you have more important things to worry about than having sex with your drug addict boyfriend. Maybe the welfare and welbeing of your child. Think about who you want your son/daughter growing up with for a role model and make decisions in your life based on how you want your baby to grow up. It might not be what YOU want but when you decided to have the baby, you made a choice to put someone else before yourself. Im not trying to preach, just smarten up a bit.

Yes, Your boyfriend had meth in his system therefore it very well can be passed on to the fetus.


Meth is one of the most dangerous drugs on the market, One hit can make you hooked. If you really want to provide a healthy environment for you and your unborn child at least make a smart move to leave the boyfriend. When someone is on drugs they don't have a clean mind state and aren't able to provide for others. Their mindset is getting their next fix. Sure, It was not the smartest choice to have sex with a meth addict but you can't fix what already happened but you CAN fix what can happen. I honestly think you should consider what is in you and your child's best interest and forget the boyfriend.

Basically, if your boyfriend was using methamphetamines when your baby was conceived 12 weeks ago, it's possible for your baby to suffer as a result. It's also a HUGE risk if you begin to use drugs of any kind, or inhale the smoke (if he smokes it that way) or ingest the drug indirectly in any other form.


Also keep in mind that people are seldom themselves when using drugs, and meth is one of those drugs that becomes addicting after only 1-2 uses. Remember that the safety of you AND your unborn child is at stake, now and after his or her birth.

yep.

when you have sex and have a baby.. its pretty much your genes and his genes mixing together to form a "mini you and mini him in 1"..

so yes, it will affect the baby.

Maybe you should have been more smart...
