No their is no risks
I am wondering about the appearance of my unborn child.?
The first 2 choices are not advised. Continuing to abuse drugs subjects the fetus to a lot of environmental risks, disease and to a reduced likelihood that the mother is going to take good care of herself during the pregnancy.

What are the dangers of a cesarean?
Some dangers are risks of certain infections. For the baby, some risks are a possible injury occurring from the surgical procedure, breathing problems, breastfeeding problems, and a possible adverse reaction from the anesthesia given to the mother. Some risks for BOTH the mother and child are developing a hospital-borne infection due to extensive stays. And some studies have even shown that mothers who have had their child by a C-section take longer to first interact with their child compared to mothers who have had their babies delivered vaginally.
What effects does radiation for thyroid testing have on a baby?
Prenatal Radiation Exposure The exposure of an unborn baby to radiation is referred to as prenatal radiation exposure. This can occur when the mother's abdomen is exposed to radiation from outside her body. Also, a pregnant woman who accidentally swallows or breathes in radioactive materials may absorb that substance into her bloodstream. From the mother's blood, radioactive materials may pass through the umbilical cord to the baby or concentrate in areas of the mother's body near the womb (such as the urinary bladder) and expose the unborn baby to radiation. The possibility of severe health effects depends on the gestational age of the unborn baby at the time of exposure and the amount of radiation it is exposed to. Unborn babies are less sensitive during some stages of pregnancy than others. However, unborn babies are particularly sensitive to radiation during their early development, between weeks 2 and 15 of pregnancy. The health consequences can be severe, even at radiation doses too low to make the mother sick. Such consequences can include stunted growth, deformities, abnormal brain function, or cancer that may develop sometime later in life. However, since the baby is shielded by the mother's abdomen, it is protected in the womb from radioactive sources outside the mother's body. Consequently, the radiation dose to the unborn baby is lower than the dose to the mother for most radiation exposure events. Pregnant women should consult with their physicians if they have any concern about radiation exposure to their unborn baby. Unborn babies are especially sensitive to the cancer-causing effects of radiation. However, the increased risks depend on the amount of radiation to which the baby was exposed and the amount of time that it was exposed. During the first 2 weeks of pregnancy, the radiation-related health effect of greatest concern is the death of the baby. The unborn baby is made up of only a few cells during the first 2 weeks of pregnancy. Damage to one cell can cause the death of the embryo before the mother even knows that she is pregnant. Of the babies that survive, however, few will have birth defects related to the exposure, regardless of how much radiation they were exposed to. Large radiation doses to the unborn baby during the more sensitive stages of development (between weeks 2 and 15 of pregnancy) can cause birth defects, especially to the brain. When an unborn baby is exposed to large doses of radiation (above the dose received from 500 chest x-rays) during the more sensitive stages of development (especially between weeks 8 and 15 of pregnancy), the health consequences can be severe, especially to the brain. Babies exposed to the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki during the 8- to 15-week stage of pregnancy were found to have a high rate of brain damage that resulted in lower IQs and even severe mental retardation. They also suffered stunted growth (up to 4% shorter than average people) and an increased risk of other birth defects. Between the 16th week of pregnancy and birth, radiation-induced health effects (besides cancer) are unlikely unless the unborn baby receives an extremely large dose of radiation. In the 16- to 25-week stage of pregnancy, health consequences similar to those seen in the 8- to 15-week stage could occur, but only when the doses are extremely large (more than about 5,000 chest x-rays received at one time). At this dose level, the mother could be showing signs of acute radiation syndrome (see www.bt.cdc.gov/radiation/ars.asp), which is sometimes known as radiation sickness. After the 26th week of pregnancy, the radiation sensitivity of the unborn baby is similar to that of a newborn. At the 26th week of pregnancy, the unborn baby is fully developed though not fully grown. Unborn babies exposed to radiation in the womb during this stage of pregnancy are no more sensitive to the effects of radiation than are newborns. This means that birth defects are not If you meant a baby baby, I don't think it's a good idea.
where and how can i get a paternity/dna test before the baby is born?
A DNA Test of an unborn child is a very risky procedure. The mother would have to consent and she would be advised of all the risks. It's much simpler and less risk once the child is born. The mother of the child can speak to her OB/Gyn for more information.
Why do babies with a negative blood type get shots at birth?
When the mother's blood is negative, and the baby's blood is positive, there are some risks to their health. If your blood mixed with her blood at all, she could end up with a disease. They gave her that shot to protect her, just in case.
