Objectives: to determine the change in maternal self-report of marijuana, tobacco, alcohol, and cocaine use during pregnancy between 2013 and 2016. Methods: cross-sectional, descriptive, analytical study between 2013 and 2016. The sample consists of pregnant woman who delivered and received immediate postpartum care at the Centro Hospitalario Pereira Rossell in Montevideo, Uruguay.

Results: the sample consisted of 577 pregnant women, 319 corresponding to interviews conducted in 2013 and 258 in 2016. Regarding alcohol intake, 76 (23.82%) women reported drinking while pregnant in 2013, whereas in 2016, 91 (35.3%) (p=.003) did so. As for tobacco, 59 (43%) quit smoking when they found out about their pregnancy in 2013, and 69 (60%) quit in 2016 (p=.008). In 2013, 41 women (12.85%) smoked marijuana until they discovered their pregnancy, and 79 (30%) did so in 2016 (p < .001). The use of cocaine and its derivatives did not change significantly between 2013 and 2016.
