I'm now just over 20 weeks and have had maybe 4 alcoholic drinks throughout being pregnant and baby is very healthy. Most doctors will say it's not advised but in moderation is fine, it all boils down to what you want to do and how you want to look after you and your baby, as long as you're not getting drunk every day then it shouldn't be too much of an issue

I had a glass of wine twice a month.... My baby is perfectly fine .... My doc said it can be good for you but only in moderation , they just don't recommend it because people sometimes don't know when to stop.... But you will get plenty of ladies saying your baby will get fetal alcohol syndrome which is true if your drinking a lot on a regular basis but like I said moderation is key

I personally never have but have known people to have the occasional glass of wine during their pregnancy.  I am not suggesting it.  Just saying that I have known people to have an occasional glass during their pregnancies.
