Well, when I got pregnant with my kid, I was 20, living on the beach in mexico, unemployed, doing every party drug imaginable. I think the universe intervened on her behalf, and I (maybe) actually didn't have anything harder than pot, cigs and booze for the 8 weeks or so I was pregs before I knew it. I quit all toxins for the duration of the pregnancy when I found out, and she came out better than perfect. I was scared, of course, but if you look up Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, it is found most often in women who drink copious amounts throughout their pregnancies.
