[QUOTE=BrowardMan6942;2605261]Just in case you think Cheyenne's kid having Down Syndrome has anything to do with her doing drugs.
Nothing personal but you don't know anything about Down Syndrome.
Down Syndrome is a genetic disorder which obviously ran in either the family of the father or the mother.

.[/QUOTE]Yup.
My (2nd) ex-wife, mother of my youngest, didn't think she could get pregnant (webbing in her tubes or some-such thing). While we used to cruise around (when she was still a SW), she used to make me slow down, so she could spit on preggo SW's.
She was pissed they would have "the gift" of carrying a child, and risk harming that "gift" by getting high while preggo, while she was denied that gift.
Which gave ME the brillant fukkin idea, that getting her preggo would get / keep her sober. Kid is 24 now, great kid. The relationship lasted 3+ years (ended up getting married). During which time she DID stay sober. She was still a raving crazy beotch sober (yeah, I can pick them), and we're still friends to this day. Probably wouldn't be, if she didn't get preggo.
These chicks have to TRULY WANT to be saved, in order to actually get sober. I GAVE UP trying to save them years ago.
SW / addicts are not stray dogs. Give them a bath, warm meal, rub their belly and they'll love you forever. Only applies to DOGS.
Now, using while pregnant greatly increases the risks of delivering a damaged baby. And, sad as it seems, that's ON THEM, NOT US.
