Hi,
I am 5 weeks pregnant and really worried I've damaged my child already. When I was 3 weeks I had two big drinking nights where I drank half a bottle of wine and the other night a few glasses of wine and a couple vodka shots. I am now considering terminating the pregnancy as I think that would have been a critical time in the embryo's neural development.
I'm not interested in hearing about anyone who drank and had healthy babies, because I know there's plenty of those.It does not make me feel better about it. What would make me feel better is if I couldn't find anyone who had an unhealthy child after this kind of drinking at the wrong time in the pregnancy. Does anyone out there have children with FAS or know any more about this? Everything I read on the internet makes me feel terminating the pregnancy is the best thing to do.
