It may even cause chromosome changes. Babies born addicted to heroin experience typical withdrawal symptoms including, respiratory problems, vomiting, diarrhea, jaundice, convulsions and hyperventilation. According to the American SIDS Institute, these babies are also much more likely to die from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

general symptoms....

Not every baby will show every sign or symptom. Symptoms are dependent on many factors including the health of the mother, genetics and health care. Some general symptoms exhibited by newborns exposed to drugs before birth are: low birth weight, smaller average height, bone defects, respiratory infections, asthma, seizures, tremors, vision problems, eating and sleeping disorders, and irritability. These symptoms can last for months. It can make it difficult for the baby to form a bond with his caregiver and slow his social and mental development.
