No.: You describe a scenario common to a large proportion of all pregnancies - i.e. Alcohol consumption periconceptionally. The fertilized egg (not embryo yet) should be just fine with respect to that exposure. Do not drink any more alcohol throughout pregnancy, take Folic Acid 1-5 mg daily and good luck!
