Does the use of anesthesia or any sort of drugs have any effect on both the mother and infants?

Im really hoping youre speaking of anesthesia in a hospital setting...remember Micheal Jackson!

Of course anything a mother consumes, the baby consumes as well, while still in the womb.

Should surgery be necessary, immense precautions are taken to ensure the unborn child doesnt suffer ill effects from it, as anesthesia is a very tricky thing.

Why does it have an adverse effect? umbilical cord is a direct link to the development of the growing child. Anything the mother takes, the child does as well....often with horrible endings due to illegal substances, causing developmental delays, physical abnormalities, and far worse can occurr when people ingest things they shouldn't when pregnant.

it often leads to a life of heartache and remorse, with a mother does not think of the long term consequences of their actions while pregnant.

Testing is done at hopitals upon birth, and babies found to have toxins in their system....usually do not end up going home with their mother.

i urge anyone to stop, think, and take care....its not just your own life anymore to worry about....your decisions affect a life filled with promise..that you can make great, or destroy so easily.
