Nicotine use during pregnancy has been linked to a variety of negative outcomes for the baby, including preterm birth, low birth weight, respiratory problems, sudden infant death syndrome, and an increased risk of developmental delays and behavior problems. Cocaine and psychoactive drugs can also have negative effects on the developing fetus, but they are not specifically linked to all of the outcomes listed. Alcohol use during pregnancy is a well-known cause of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, but it is not the teratogen linked to all of the outcomes listed.
