[quote=Anonymous]1. Genes. 2. Prenatal environment. Those are the two most important factors. Premature babies are at risk for developing all kinds of learning disabilities, ADHD, etc. So BIG factor right there. Forget the wine and pot, they are negligible. The work amount contributes if it led to undue stress and triggered premature labour, stress hormones floating around the baby, etc. Which of course it did! My son with ADD and High-functioning autism was born at 32 weeks, partly due to a history of early labour in my family, and partly due to stress at work! There is ADHD in DH's side of the family, and auto-immune disorders on both sides (one theory is that there is an autoimmune brain attack in individuals with autism). You are not alone. Hugs, OP!
