A member asked:
Does anal sex or oral sex during pregnancy cause strabismus in newborn? if not this than what causes cross eyed'ness in newborn.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No!: There is no association with those acts and birth defects (of which strabismus is not). A small number of newborns have strabismus at birth but usually out grow it by 12 months. If you are concerned that it is not improving you can discuss it with your pediatrician.
