I went on a "romantic" weekend trip to NYC right before I knew I was pregnant. I drank beer, wine, liquor - in fairly large quant_ties. I am concerned about this.
I am seeking input from other women who drank more than a couple before finding out they were pregnant. I am 36 years old and this is my first pregnancy. I am only about 2-3 weeks now. Any advice or exprience to relate?
Thanks!

Hi Becky, There are very many women who have consumed alcohol before they knew they were pregnant. The majority of babies were born happy and healthy. Most books will tell you it should be fine and not to worry. The key is to refrain from drinking from now on. I conceived in February when I was at an all inclusive resort, where it was all you could drink..I too had a few before I knew I was a few weeks into my pregnancy. Start taking your prenatal vitamins and lead a healthy lifestyle from now on. :) P.S. Congratulations!! and welcome to pregnancy..wishing you all the best!
