It depends on your body weight and the consumption amount you intake, it also depends if you eat and drink water before you consume alcohol. Alcohol takes longer to pass threw the placenta, and your blood stream, your body basicly absorbs it into the blood stream threw your stomach wall, not digest. did you know that if you pore alcohol on your arm you can still get the same effect if you were drinking it because its so absorbant. So yes, it will take hours maybe even a day or two before alcohol is no longer in your blood or placenta for those who are pregnant.
