How long do cocaine stay in a baby placenta?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cocaine: Cocaine is a potent vasoconstrictive agent that can cause your placenta to lose its attachment to your uterus, depriving your baby of nutrients. Cocaine metabolites are detectable in your body for around 30 hours, but stay in your baby much longer. Cocaine & metabolites are also stored in placenta & myometrium -- becoming continuous drug delivery to your baby. http://tinyurl.com/kxgwfsp.

I went to the gynae and my baby is due for the 19 of March but now the Dr advises that I give birth earlier around the 19th due to fluid around the placenta being around 4cm and the babies waist also just within the range. Bt I want the date of da 19?
