Seek prenatal care as soon as you know that you are pregnant. Take care of yourself. Do not smoke and avoid all second-hand smoke. Do not drink alcohol and do not take prescription or non-prescription drugs unless they are prescribed by a doctor. Tobacco smoke (nicotine) and other drugs, such as alcohol, prescription or non-prescription drugs (that are not prescribed by a doctor) can get into your developing baby’s bloodstream and change the ways your baby’s genes build his/her brain. The food that an expectant mother eats provides the nutrients that the baby receives while in the womb.
