A woman has discovered she is pregnant. What should she avoid to reduce the risk of injuring the
fetus or having a miscarriage? What will be an ideal response?
Most directly, pregnant women should not smoke or consume alcohol, as both of these are extremely
deleterious to the developing fetus. Pregnant women should also minimize their caffeine intake, avoid
hot tubs, and try to minimize their stress. Finally, pregnant women should inform their doctor such
that their medications can be assessed for potential danger.
