Binge drinking before positive test after miscarriage

Hello.

I know there are many posts on this but I am extremely worried. I miscarried in June. Last month I was sure I was pregnant, but I was wrong. This month I had no symptoms whatsoever, had several tests and they were negative.

On Friday I started having some bleeding and assumed my period started as it was about time. I was feeling very low. So afterwards I had a few glasses of wine in one night ( 3 glasses around 3 hours apart) and the next day I had many more (I think like 2 bottles of prosecco in 12 hours). I know it's an outrageous amount...

I continued to have light bleeding throughout the weekend. this was usual for me when my period starts; it is heavier stating the third day. I still took a test today, no expectations, and it was a faded positive, but it's clearly positive. Took anotyer one and the same.

I feel awful and extremely concerned that this might go wrong again because of what I did...

Info online is so contradictory... Did anyone had such an awful binge drinking episode around 4 weeks? Do you know of any cases when things went wrong? Needless to say I will not touch any drop of alcohol from now on and I didn't either before the episodes above.
Thank you so much!

Yes absolutely drank too much before I found out, don't worry about it.

I drank way too much before I found out I was pregnant with my first. She's perfectly fit and healthy 4 years on.

Oh and congratulations. I've got everything crossed for you x

Thank you so much! Glad things went well for you!
Hope you are right and there's nothing to worry... even though it gives me chills when I think of the amount I drank... I'm also concerned about the light bleeding. But there's nothing to do, but wait...
Thank you both!

Sorry to get back on this but I am experiencing immense anxiety. Even questioning if it s ok to go further with the pregnancy. I 100% want to have the baby. So, so much. But I'm extremely panicked and scared. I feel like I'm just the worst person there is and I deserve the worst...
