35. A 2325-g (5 lb 2 oz) male newborn is delivered at 33 weeks' gestation; Apgar scores are 7 and 8 at 1 and 5
minutes, respectively. The 13-year-old mother had no prenatal care and did not know how much weight she gained. During the pregnancy, the mother smoked marijuana and
took over-the-counter vitamins occasionally; she did not drink alcohol and had no illness except for an upper respiratory tract infection 4 months ago. She did not know she was pregnant until 2 weeks ago; her family is unaware of her condition. She has had one sexual partner. During
the hospital stay, the newborn and his mother have no complications. The newborn is at greatest risk for morbidity and mortality from which of the following?
A) Child abuse
B) Congenital syphilis
C) Hypocalcemia
D) Lead poisoning

Smoked marijuana, & though virtually impossible exept in a mentally retarded woman-->didn't know she was pregnant till 2 weeks ago
-----> main concern in the ans should be Child Abuse (A)
What are the sympt (if any) of marijuana withdrawl in the baby??
does it cause any seizures??

I guess that the asymptomatic stay in hospital after delivery would rule out E....and ram looks like child abuse is big time! But I also picked the wrong answer in the actual test...
