Birth defects and birth injury are often caused by environmental and genetic causes, however, they can also be the result of an error by a doctor. If a physician fails to detect congenital disabilities during pregnancy, and then fails not to notify parents of the condition, parents might be in a position to file a lawsuit for wrongful birth seeking compensation for all the expenses that are associated with their disabled child.
To win a medical malpractice lawsuit in birth defect cases the plaintiff has to prove that the doctor was in breach of a duty of care to the patient, that he failed to fulfill the duty, that his actions or lack of action directly caused damage and injuries, and that the patient suffered economic and noneconomic damages due to the injuries.

While working, many mothers are exposed to a variety of harmful chemicals. These chemicals can be consumed or inhaled, or absorbed by the skin of the body. These chemicals comprise industrial solvents such as the ethylene glycol-ethers (EGE) used in the manufacture of semiconductors. These chemicals can also be consumed by parents when they take certain prescription and over-thecounter medicines. This is because a lot of pharmaceuticals are not properly tested on pregnant women and have been shown to cause birth defects.
Environmental Exposure
While genetic disorders are one of the most frequent causes of birth defects, environmental exposure is also a major cause. Many different chemicals and toxins that are present in the home or workplace could increase the chances of having a birth defect. This includes fungicides, pesticides, lead, heavy metals, certain paints, and other chemical substances. Exposure to toxic substances is almost always inevitable. But, when businesses do not take precautions to protect pregnant employees, they are negligent and could be held responsible.
Researchers aren't able to identify the exact cause of a specific birth defect. It is possible that a combination with multiple factors could trigger the condition, but the difficulty is evaluating these interactions in real-time. This is why the National Children's Study, now getting under way in several states, is so important. The NCS will enroll 100,000 women from representative population and track them over time and also their children. This study will provide the most comprehensive data available on how different environmental factors influence fetal and child health.
