What is foetal alcohol syndrome?

Fetal Alcohol syndrome (FAS) is caused by a woman drinking too much alcohol during pregnancy. The pregnant woman typically is also malnourished, receives no pre-natal medical care, drinks tobacco and does drugs. The amount of alcohol necessary to cause FAS is controversial but several important points are worth noting: • Because it's impossible to "prove a negative," opponents of drinking alcohol in general can always and forever say that "no safe limit on consumption has been proven" • There appears to be no evidence that drinking in moderation (no more than one drink of beer, wine or distilled spirits) by pregnant women has ever caused Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) or otherwise harmed a single baby. The burden of proof lies on those who contend that such drinking is harmful and they have not been able to do so. • Women who choose to drink in moderation while pregnant can do so with knowledge that their decision is consistent with scientific evidence. • There is always the possibility that some as yet unidentified harm to a baby might result from light or moderate drinking during pregnancy. • Given the above possibility, even if remote, the very safest choice for an expectant mother's fetus would be to abstain. • Women who are pregnant or plan to become pregnant should discuss the matter with their own physician or health care provider.

Is it OK to drink any amount of alcohol during pregnancy?

Actually, there is a huge debate on exactly how much alcohol it would take for an infant to be born with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. One occasional, average-sized glass of wine is considered acceptable in places like France, and no birth defects have ever been reported due to limited alcohol consumption. However, I would not take my advice as an "ok" to drink wine in any way, it is the expectant parent's decision as to decide how much alcohol will affect them while carrying. Here in Sweden we talk about half a glass of wine and then it's important to remember that it's the normal glass, not the bigger ones so many have today. But that's it, not other alcohol.
