IS IT OKAY TO DRINK WINE WHILE PREGNANT???

Okay so I'm 15 weeks and 3 days i always heard that drinking a little bit of wine is okay when your pregnant is this true , I'm a little stressed out and I would love a glass of wine but of course if it's not good for the baby I will wait , I won't see my doctor till next month I'll be sure to wait and consult with him

After the first trimester I drink up to a few glasses per week. This is my third pregnancy. My girls are all healthy and normal. Getting drunk is not a good idea probably, but a glass of wine will not hurt you at all. Relax and enjoy it! :)

I've read it's okay every now and then to have a glass. Meaning studies haven't shown enough evidence to rule it out as harmful or helpful. If you can avoid it, I would. Just my opinion. But I can understand the desire for that one glass...I stopped drinking when we started trying to conceive and it took 6 months + currently 6 months pregnant.....so 1 full year with no alcohol so far and still a few more months left. Can't wait for that 1st martini lol!

I'm really not sure I thought it was ok before when I was pregnant I still didn't drink but my friend did so if you do male sure not to over do it. Her daughter is now 5 months and hasn't showed any progress like she doesn't lift her head at all or smile my daughter is a little over a month and has been lifting her head and smiling and giggling. Babies also progress at different rates so I could be 100% wrong but I'm just glad I didn't drink at all. So just be careful

100ml every evening would do u actually good as it is good for your blood tubes and hemoglobin but make sure it is only a good quality red dry wine! This was an advice from my previous OB during first pregnancy but perhaps not for every evening but 2-3 times a week.
