All of your baby's major organs develop during this time. Besides regular visits to your doctor, you need a proper diet. You also need to eliminate the use of cigarettes, alcohol, and drugs. And, if you have AIDS, do not become pregnant. Babies born with the disease do not live more than a few years.
Few things are as exciting as having a baby.
However, the responsibility can seem awesome, as the baby depends on you for nearly everything. Some babies need more care and attention because they were born with special problems. Others at high risk are babies with congenital birth defects and respiratory disorders. The causes of these problems include being born too early and complications during pregnancy. These babies will need ongoing health care throughout their infancy, or the first year of life.
