Yup. Last night my sister asked me if I would drink a bottle of wine with her. She's 5 months along, and recently broke up with her loser bf and was feeling down. We drank a bottle of wine, which was only 6% alcohol, and for some reason I don't feel guilty. If the baby comes out with a.f.s. I may have to retract that comment. I've heard that a glass of wine doesn't hurt though?
i've heard that one or two glasses of wine won't hurt....just don't do this often. BTW i did major bong rips with a prego friend of mine that was two weeks over due and her son is beautiful as well as intelligent. peace!
Of course, I wont make a habit of it. Never thought I would have ever ever done such a thing. Oh well, glad that not everybody thinks it's a horrible thing. Coyote, I heard that weed isn't necessarily bad for the baby, but the act of smoking it is what makes it harmful. If that's true, I would totally make my sister some brownies.
I have heard that although drinking during pregancy is a bad idea, most of the damage is done very early (about the 20 day of pregency....before many women even know they are pregnant. This is because the fetus is very vulnerable to alcohol just then when various parts of the brain are formed. A woman who was 5 months pregnant would be far beyond that period. Still....a bad idea....
when i went to spain i had an aunt who was pregnant at the time, and she had a glass of wine every single dinner and every single lunch. A couple months later she had a gorgeous looking healthy baby girl (my new cuz!). soooo fogetaboutit, it aint a big deal
no doctor here, but i think that wouldnt hurt. even if she got drunk, that PROBABLY woudnt do anything. I would strongly agree about not making it a habit part
