Some clinical studies about effect of anesthesia and anesthetic drugs to the fetus during pregnancy, have shown that general surgery in pregnancy causes no increase in stillbirths or birth defects, but leads to increased infant mortality and lower birth weight.

Morphine and Demerol, both are drugs for which studies have not been able to prove an increased risk of fetal abnormalities (they are used extensively in pregnancy and are safe in appropriate dosages, Demerol is also one of the most commonly used obstetrical analgesics by women in labor).
