FASD Is the Remains When Alcohol Roils a Pregnancy
Children bear the brunt of unwise actions as they lie helpless in the womb, bombarded by a poison that will mark them for life.
Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Disorder, which may sound like a strange acronym to some, is a mental and physical anomaly that develops while the baby is still in the womb.
It is a dangerous disorder that can develop in the baby of a pregnant woman who drinks alcohol. It doesn't just cause mental problems but hurts the child's whole body. This syndrome might bring on many issues, including physical and mental difficulties. But not all babies are as vulnerable.
The severity of fetal alcohol syndrome varies from newborn to baby. Some babies only have mild symptoms, but others may have more serious problems that could last their whole lives. The Physical Aspects of FASD
People with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Disorder (FASD) may have several abnormalities in their bodies, such as:
Small eye apertures, a thin upper lip, and a smooth philtrum are characteristics of the “fetal alcohol face” (the groove above the lip)
Damage to the central nervous system (CNS), issues with neurodevelopment, and microcephaly (small head size).
