New drinking study

shows that 8 alcoholic drinks or less a week is safe during pregnancy. And 5 at once is ok on occasion. According to the news report anyway.

Aside from the effects of alcohol on the fetus, I would worry about getting drunk and falling or making other bad choices because of lowered inhabitions.

I just wonder what their definition of safe is.  This seems shockingly unsafe.  Why put a heathy baby at any risk.

I gave up all caffeine when pregnant, not one coke, did I have.  And being pregnant and not getting a coke icee was hard!

Not drinking was a no brainer.

There's just something so wrong seeing a pregnant woman drinking. Same thing as seeing 4 year olds in other countries smoking. It's just not right. IMO.

I've cut back on caffeine, but I still allow myself 1/2 a cup of coffee and a soda if I want it. Normally I don't drink more than 1/2 a coke though. I think things in moderation are ok as long as you talk with your Dr. about it. Alcohol just isn't an option for me while pregnant. I'd feel too guilty.

@FoFa I didn't find that study! It was on the news a few minutes ago! I don't have any interest in drinking (right now!). It was just shocking to hear how many women do drink regularly during pregnancy, and they're not talking about just wine!

I haven't touched alcohol since I found out I was pregnant. There have been a few days when I would of liked a drink but couldn't bring myself to have one.

I have caffeine on occasion. It's in chocolate and I have to have that sometimes.
If I eat at Smashburger I get unsweet tea just because their water tastes nasty.

My mom said she drank and smoked while she was pregnant with me, and I turned out all right
