A member asked:
Can you drink before a missed period? what damages could be done to the fetus?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No ETOH w/ baby: If you are trying to get pregnant, then avoid alcohol for the entire time you are trying and for the entire time your are pregnant. Fetal alcohol syndrome is no joke and causes developmental disorders in babies/kids/people. Some have said that even one drink during a critical time of embryo formation could cause fas. Stay away from all alcohol if you are in baby-making mode.
