Contact Child Protective Services and report what she is doing. Call the police whenever you know she is holding and/or using. You are not only running the risk of having your child be born with multiple birth defects, you also will be financially responsible for this child the same as if you were married to your ex and then divorced. So even though you may not care about this child, since you want to abort it, if you care about not having your wages taken to support a birth defect child for at least 18 years, get the authorities involoved NOW.
