Heavy drinking BEFORE finding out pregnant at 10 weeks

Hi we have 2 small children and wasn’t trying for a third just yet - although we are over the moon! I found out I was pregnant at 10 weeks

I am very concerned that we went on holiday for 2 weeks I would have been 8-9 weeks. I drank heavily 3 nights (my parents were with us so had baby sitters) tequila shots the lot. I had a few glasses of wine the other nights on holiday when the kids were in bed. I also went to Leeds festival for the day at about 6 weeks again drank heavily. The other weeks I may have had the odd couple of glasses of red wine watching a film on a Friday but nothing else. I had a good summer Confused The pregnancy has been a shock but a welcome one, I’m just very concerned about the health of the baby. I’ve asked for all the usual screening. I probably drank more in august and September than any other months in the year so I am absolutely kicking myself!

Any1 drank that late on before they found out and baby was fine? X

Hey @Beckie1987 - similar happened with my first. I found out at 9 weeks and had been out with the girls, drinking wine at meal times... just being normal! We have a very healthy 15-month old boy. You'll be fine x

Absolutely fine op! People do a lot worse before they find out their preg.
Placenta doesn't take over until 10-12weeks.
Congrats!!
