wine?

So I heard it's okay to drink one glass of wine everynight while pregnant. Is this true?

I asked my midwife today. I told her I believe I wouldn't give my 5 year old a glass of wine why would I let my fetus. And she said that a lot of older doctors will say its okay but over time they've learned that you never know a safe amount. One glass can cause harm and some women can drink your whole pregnancy and nothing bad will happen. But why risk it over a glass of wine or 1 drink that's just silly

Also keep in mind it is still alc so if you wouldnt give it to your newborn baby in a bottle everynight then you wouldnt want to be giving it to them while they are growing and developing
