When I was pregnant with 3 of my children I was afraid to take Tylenol. It was a fairly new drug and I felt it hadn’t had enough time on the market to know if it was safe for a pregnant woman’s baby.

About 80-90% of the risk for autism is genetic, stemming from a complex combination of inherited genes and new (de novo) mutations. While genetics are the dominant factor, the condition also results from an interplay with certain environmental factors during early development, such as advanced parental age, prenatal exposure to pollution, maternal obesity, and birth complications.
