I don't know how much or how long or anything like that. Need advice? How do these babies do in the long term? Is this something that should make us consider not taking this baby? Thanks Joni Joni Mom to 2 bio daughters ages 26, 24 waiting on adoption

If you have a University or learning hospital near you they are usually the ones who deal with the drug babies. Also do a web search for info. Blessings to you.

I would do what Laurie suggested and research it on the web ... you might find a support group of sorts. I would also pray about it. Finally, try to get more info, like you said ... how much exposure, etc. God Bless You! Aloha, Christina Christina ~ Wife of Henry, Jr. and mother of Henry III, born with the help of our Angel/GS
