Wine???

Question

ONE glass while pregnant??

Answer

I have like, 4 oz here and there occasionally when we're out to dinner and end up "babysitting" that the whole night. I also usually have a big meal with it. I've done a lot of research, as have friends who are doctors and occupational therapists. The thing with alcohol is that it has to first be broken down by your liver, then pass through your blood to the fetus. So no, people, it's absolutely NOT like giving a newborn a glass of wine. So depending on the amount and you drink and the alcohol content, the amount which may actually pass is minuscule or none at all.

Having said that, it's an individual choice.

Answer

I smell my husband's drink and that is enough for me personally. I've had friends drink and had no problem, but the guilt would be way more than the drink is worth to me.

Answer

I refuse to even have one glass... Plus who really can have just one right lol?

Answer

I would only do half of a glass, maybe even a quarter. Dark beer is actually beneficial, have half a glass of Guinness, Newcastle or anything else and the yeast helps your breast milk.

Answer

I'm going to miss wine ;( oh wine my friend :( when will I see you again :(

Answer

Experts are still unsure exactly how much alcohol is safe for you to have while you're pregnant, so the safest approach is not to drink at all while expecting. They say 1 glass a week as they have to put a number on it!

Answer

I would never risk it. You wouldn't give a glass of wine to a newborn so why give it to a growing baby in your belly, that's just my opinion.

Answer

My doctor said one every once in a while is okay.  I have friends who reserved their intake for special occasions (like a champagne toast at a wedding or a glass of red on their birthday).  But, FAS is real and excessive consumption definitely is problematic!

Answer

I know someone who's pregnant and drinks wine a lot. Personally I don't  think I would. But it must be kind of safe if women are doing it? Idk

Answer

Yes it is okay! Just not every day
