10476455 tn?1423121400 s a very rewarding sacrifice to make considering your child will reap the benefits if those 2 months for the rest of his/ her life. Children who do not breastfeed have a higher risk of Athsma and diabetes along with having a weaker immune system. Honestly it's your choice your the mother but if your doing it because you think it'll help you "stay perky" or allow you to drink those are some shallow reasons in my opinion.
Avatar m tn Maybe you were trying to be diplomatic or play it safe but the facts suggest that your statement was flat out wrong. Alcohol has NEVER been shown to play ANY role in HCV reactivation.
Avatar f tn What are some important MUST KNOW baby facts that a first time mom needs to remember for when their child comes?
Avatar f tn Alcohol consumption is mot reccomended during pregnancy and it is preferred that you do not drink at all. Pregnancy facts are a huge part of my life because I want to work in prenatal care or with young children. I also relearned this in my current Childhood Devrlopment course. There are a lot of substances that are harmful during pregnancy and alcohol is definitely one of them, especially because of the dangers of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome.
Avatar f tn my boyfriend is addicted to painkillers. alcohol also. we have been struggling with his addictions for 6 years, He started using heroin last summer but quit after my brother passed away from heroin overdose. he still takes pills and drinks(which i hate) im debating leaving him for good.

Avatar f tn How did you find out you were expecting? Were you shocked, excited, or sad? I'm 25 weeks and I found out I was pregnant by horrible morning sickness! I conceived my bundle of joy February 14th and I found out I was pregnant April 4th at midnight by a pregnancy test. I was extremely shocked because I was told I wasn't able to have children. This is my miracle baby!<3 I had morning sickness for 2 weeks and I just thought I had an extremely bad case of the flu.
466909 tn?1207568232 It's nobody's fault but mine that I'm an addict. If I didn't take Oxycontin, I would have found my addiction in the bottom of a bottle of alcohol or another substance. The fact is that Oxycontin, when used correctly and responsibly, helps millions of people with chronic pain live normal lives. It's selfish addictive thinking that makes my addiction more important than their quality of life.
Avatar f tn I am not too familiar with blood alcohol, but I would think that maybe you could have been dehydrated and that could have caused the reading. Try drinking more water next time.
Avatar n tn I watched a documentary at the beginning of this year which was based on America finding. It showed that the UK guidance was giving mothers to be wrong information. Department of health States 1 or 2 small glasses of wine a week but the finding from American showed the startling effects on baby's movements etc. I've now just looked up updated unfortunately and now the department of health suggests nothing at all.

Avatar n tn IMHO, the incidence of autism has increased due to the changing DSM definition of autism has broadened over the years and IDEA definition of autism was added within the last 20 years. Once IDEA added autism as a category, as lot of kids labeled with autism flooded the rosters. Also, more professionals know what to look for in patients who have been misdiagnosed in the past. Just an example here: No one over 40 has fetal alcohol syndrome, It affects about 1 in 500 kids today.
148588 tn?1465778809 There are so many different studies and opinions on this issue, I don't think it will ever be resolved... We all know that study data can be skewed any way one wants to skew it, in order to come up with the preferred results. By the way, the video in the link I posted is exactly the same as the video in the original post.
2109562 tn?1347253848 If they're irregular, it's possible she's not even the whole 3 months along, which would kind of help because the sooner you quit the better. However, she won't know until the doc appt and shouldn't stress too much about it. What's done is done and cannot be reversed. There's no hard facts on small amounts of liquor because they can't really study it to say ok stop, this much more and your baby will have FAS.
Avatar n tn Just curious to why woman keep asking this?, they have known facts about alcohol syndrome and Haven't figured how much exactly you need to take in before you can hurt your unborn child! Very disgusting knowing ladies can't wait 9 months and that's if you make it the whole 40 weeks. Shm....

Avatar f tn actually drinking alcohol helps lower your sugar levels because even though alcohol has carbs the sugar does not get into your system because of the alcohol.. so i say, if your gonna have a shake, make sure to drink a bit before and a lil after... or like when my numbers were in 400's one weekend cause of a cookout, i drank a little and they went to 110 :) so just drink when you wanna help your numbers..

Avatar f tn That is only the start of a difficult life of a parent. So, let me give you the facts that you probably already know, but they are important to repeat. Smoking while pregnant will: Lower the amount of oxygen and nutrient available your growing baby. Increase your baby's heart rate. Increase the chances of miscarriage and stillbirth. Increase the risk that your baby is born prematurely and/or born with low birth weight.
