What is "fetal alcohol syndrome"?
Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) is a serious condition that occurs in a baby when the mother consumes alcohol during pregnancy. It can cause a range of physical, behavioral, and learning problems in the child. Common symptoms include distinctive facial features, such as a smooth area between the nose and upper lip, growth problems, and central nervous system problems, which can lead to difficulties with coordination, attention, and learning. There is no cure for FAS, but early treatment and support can help improve the child's development and quality of life. The best way to prevent FAS is for pregnant women to avoid alcohol entirely.
