THERE IS DEFINATE RESEARCH AND DATA that shows that drinking during pregnancy puts at risk of having a baby born with F.A.S. (fetal alcohol syndrome). Medium to heavy drinking during a pregnancy can cause damage to a growing fetus; physical deformities: smaller heads, smaller eyes that seemed "webbed" (resembles a child's eyes that has Down syndrome), slower growth and development, thin flat upper lip (no crease), and ALSO things you can't see: possible heart damage, emotional problems; impulse control problems, learning problems, most have some degree of mental retardation....I worked with a young boy with FASand it wasn't easy. He was loveable and pretty smart, but his problems were MANY. AND if the drinking is not severe enough to cause FAS, the baby can be born with a milder case called F.A.E. These children are born without the physical deformities, however they also have problems that are not immediately evident: learning problems and other emotional problems.....IT REALLY ISN'T A GOOD THING TO DRINK ALCOHOL WHILE PREGNANT!! <<>>peaunuts are yucky and you are gay
Excessive alcohol can cause fetal alcohol syndrome, the number one preventable birth defect. Brain and physical development can be affected, possible severely if alcohol abuse is severe.
Drinking small amounts of alcohol have been proven to NOTbe harmful to an unborn baby....Just don't get trashed...
it can die
No. So long as the consumed sperm is from a healthy man with no STDs, it will not affect your unborn child.
Look up Fetal Alcohol Syndrome.... alcohol can have devastating effects on an unborn child.....don't chance it.
Drinking while pregnant; especially drinking too much and getting drunk can cause fetal alcohol poisoning to your unborn baby. Wise up!
nothing really apart from try and explain the damage she may be causing to the unborn child and herself
Because drinking alcohol while pregnant can cause a variety of problems with the unborn baby. One of the worst problems that it can cause is fetal alcohol syndrome. It is not known how much or how little alcohol can cause problems in an unborn baby so it is recommended not to drink any!
No
The mothers bloodstream then contains alcohol and that makes its way to the unborn fetus through blood and the umbilical chord.
Drinking alcohol when pregnant can cause harm to the unborn fetus and is therefore classed as a poison during pregnancy. The alcohol can cause the fetus to be deprived of oxygen and nutrition; it could also cause fetal alcohol syndrome after birth, which can lead to mental and physical deformities.
Alcohol will stay in unborn baby's system for the same period as it stays in mother's system. It stays for pretty long period in mother's system.
Well this I believe is a very debatable question. Some doctors do not advise against, others say it is only okay during a certain trimester while others say absolutely no..period. My advice to you is for you to use your best judgment with this. We all know that drinking during pregnancy can cause tragic results and your child could be born with fetal alcohol syndrome. I have never read of any real benefits of drinking a glass of red wine while pregnant, so I personally would just say no. Why risk it if it does not have any obvious benefits. Some people say that having a glass of wine/beer ,whatever the beverage, can help you sleep if you have problems sleeping. But this cannot be true, alcohol can actually affect your sleeping and the quality of sleep will be poorer. Good luck.
