Characteristic findings of maternal alcohol use include short palpebral fissures; a flattened nasal bridge with a small, upturned nose, flat midface, and thin upper lip; and smooth philtrum. Alcohol-related birth defects also include poor growth, mental retardation (often associated with microcephaly, or small head), and small chin (micrognathia). These babies may be jittery and irritable and feed poorly.
