Fetal alcohol spectrum disorder questions and guidance
A reader asks if a six month old could have fetal alcohol syndrome and what else could explain it. The response explains FAS and FASD, teratogens, timing of exposure, and urges evaluation by a pediatric specialist ASAP while noting prevalence data and urging avoidance of alcohol in pregnancy. It also addresses a separate health query about cold weather pain and suggests lifestyle measures and omega-3 intake.
