Drank before I found out I was pregnant

[nycgal]

I'm new here. I wonder if you all could help me. i'm worried sick that I could have harmed my baby. I was 4 weeks along when I found out I was pregnant, before that I was drinking wine at home every night (3-4 glasses) and had 3-4 functions where I drank more than that (Dinner out, anniversary party, oscar party). I'm so worried that there I could have done damage to my baby. I stopped immediately after I found out and now I am 6 months along, but this worry is ruining this experience for me. I'm sure a lot of it is the guilt knowing that I was probably drinking too much to begin with.....help anyone?

hello there
Welcome. I doubt very much you would have done any harm after all alcohol is the cause of many people!
I am no doctor but if you stopped after 4 weeks you really couldnt have done much harm as you would have only just missed your period. So stop worrying and just enjoy the next few months. I am sure it will all be fine.

Hi There,
I agree with BH, your baby should be absolutely fine. Why dont you visit your GP or ask a midwfie's advice? They may put your mind at rest.
Also, congratulations on not only for your new baby on the way but also for stopping the drinking once you found out you were pregnant.. a difficult thing for some of us to do.
Best Wishes,
C

I drank before I knew on all my pregnancies and as Boozehag says, alot of peeps would have never been conceived without the help of alcohol! All my kids are fine, my eldest is top of his class .Dont worry.

Your baby will be just fine so don't worry. I think a large majority of ladies on MWO have consumed Alcohol before they realised they were pregnant - I did and both my kids are just fine. Very well done on stopping drinking as soon as you knew

Love Sweetpea :l xx

I dont have kids but I know of a few women who did not stop drinking throughout their pregnancies and some very heavily.

All the kids are fine, dont worry!

NY....you'll be ok, just take your muti-vitamins, calcium, etc. This nothing compared to babies born to crack mothers......babies born with a habit, crying shame....IAD.

Gyco - I have no idea what you are trying to say and either way it's not very helpful!
