From the information provided:

Gene A S24F, N465T R33T T345S, G366R P367E, P368Y and

Gene C S24F, I322E C255I, E344D S34E, P367E

Opioid administration can cross the placental obstruction with signs as well as measuring heart rate and variability. Subsequently after birth, there may be a reduction in attentiveness. Maternal factors of a reduced blood pressure, constipation and dry month are of a lesser importance.
