Nothin to worry about mahn. Unless she starts binge drinking.

Ok

Liliyann:
Nothing wrong in taking alcohol during pregnancy!!
I know someone that drinks beer anytime she is pregnant!!

bad!!

Austema:
Well, but one thing is certain; she is going to give birth to a drunkard

she has triggered alcohol sensitization in the infant.

The baby might come out a little tipsy. But breast milk should reduce its hangover. Jk.

No alarm since it was once. I believe her body will absorb it and it won't get to the child as long as she stops taking alcohol for the duration of the pregnancy.

Yes, baby is definitely high and intoxicated

justinajp:
i very much appreciate you for taking out time to write a well thought out helpful response, she took two sachets of pure water immediately i told her about the danger involved she took it because it tasted nice (LOL) and she has not tasted such since then, thank you for your kind words of advise.

Uwc Sir

OP don’t trust all these Nairaland doctors.. half of them didn’t finish primary school

dayleke:


Tasted nice?
Was that part of her cravings?
I know about other cravings for pregnant women but alcohol is definitely not one of them.

She shall be okay las las noni.

Women crave for weird things during pregnancy

useed:


Women crave for weird things during pregnancy

I know na.
That's why I asked if it's part of her cravings?

She took the alcohol in the first trimester which is a vital stage during which many organs and systems are formed.

She should pray that the alcohol didn't cause havoc to any of these process at the time she took it. That's all.

Once is enough risk to cause deformity, but the chance may be slim.

No prob.

Case of deform to be alarmed



Make she no go born deformed baby



My aunty in Abuja drank alcohol when she was pregnant like she wanted to remove the baby

She end up giving birth to a cripple baby

The baby is 4 years now but still like a new born baby





I pray nothing happens to your own IJN

I also know a woman that drinks alcoholic beverages like her life depends on it, but she gave birth to a sound baby.

Dumb question!

No cause for alarm... Intact, alcohol is what pregnant women use to drink as water in akwaibom state

TBH.... There's is no safe amount of alcohol to be consumed during pregnancy but most people are ignorant about this. To be on a safe side advise her to take antenatal seriously.

There is problem. You have introduced the pikin to the world of liquor even when he or she is in the belle. Na wow for you.
Tomorrow now you start complaining of his or her drinking habit. Women don spoil this world. She no fit wait. 9 months na forever? She dry crase?

Nope. But be rest assured to give birth to a drunkard

was she taking it in the first three months if pregnancy ni?

You should be very worried.

In fact I think you will most probably give birth to NwaAmaikpe unless you start taking 2 panadol daily then the damage may be reduced and you may birth LuciferKristi

Dont drink alcohol when pregnant. It can lead to Fetal Alcohol Syndrome

Nothing to fear, if it was harmful it could have flushed out the foetus. Baby is sound.

I'm not an alcohol drinker but each time I'm pregnant chilled Heineken is suddenly my bestie.

All my kids a normal and super intelligent.

I don't advise the consumption of alcohol during pregnancy o.

noted! Heineken dey open brain, my wife go change brand

She should not be worried about the alcohol she took with pregnancy but should desist from doing so again.

Alcohol is great for the mind, but hurts the physical organs in a poisonous way, but the liver is the first line of defense, so do not be bothered, the alcohol went through the liver is totally de-hydroxylized before it goes into the blood stream.

The baby and the mother are fantastic.

Wow! Everybody wants to say something in this kind of matter, even if it is not well-informed.

OP is worried about Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, which refers to the unique features in a new-born whose mom is a chronic alcoholic. Mark the word "chronic."

There is no cause for alarm here. Even substances that are known to be harmful to the body/ baby do not produce their effects unless a certain threshold or minimum amount has accumulated in the body. This happens when the intake is on a continuous and large basis.

In fact, even a pregnant woman can safely take a glass or two of an alcoholic beverage once in a while to quench her thirst. In practice, people prefer to stay out of it as a general precautionary measure.

She should see her doctor and explain these things to the doctor.


However, alcohol might not be immediately dangerous but increase the chance of danger.

That's why its mostly discouraged in your pregnancy appointments.
