Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

Should I be worried about the fact that I had two alcoholic drinks on the night of conception? It seems like a small amount, and that is the only alcohol I've had while pregnant. Could my baby be damaged?

Re: Should I be worried about the fact that I had two alcoholic drinks on the night of conception? It seems like a small amount, and that is the only alcohol I've had while pregnant. Could my baby be damaged?

The Bump Expert No, you shouldn't worry. Drinking alcohol during pregnancy can lead to fetal alcohol syndrome, which is associated with abnormal facial features, growth problems and developmental and learning disabilities, among other things. Unfortunately, there is no "safe" amount of alcohol that is okay to consume during pregnancy. So, you are right to avoid it since conceiving. But, if the only alcohol you had was on the night of conception, you shouldn't worry about damage to the baby.

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

My husband and I tried to concieve on my ovulating day 4 days later I had 3 sips of a margarita and got very drunk feeling. Then when the food was set infront of my I lost it and vomited. I am so exahusted and still feel nauseos. Could I be pregnant from getting that wasted feeling from a few sips?Thank you,

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

Same here... I only had a small alcoholic beverage and felt intoxicated right away as well as very sick to my stomach. Could it be that I am pregnant and its my body's way of warning me?

Dragonfly Magic | July 19 , 2008 11:42 AM

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

I had a couple drinks the weekend before finding out I was pregnant. Is that something to worry about? Since it was slightly after conception but before knowing I was pregnant.

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

Unfortunately, I had a bit more than 2 drinks. This pregnancy was a surprise for us. As soon as I recognized the symptoms, I stopped drinking. However, I am concerned about a couple of nights where I had several drinks in the first couple of weeks after conceiving. I'm just hopeful everything will be okay.

JavaGen | December 18 , 2008 5:31 PM

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

I've had many friends who never even knew they were pregnant for a month or so after conceiving. Think about back when our grandma's were pregnant. They probably didnt know until they were showing. So I'm going to say that chances are its going to do no damage that early on. :-)

Crystyle12 | January 10 , 2009 12:33 AM

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

My pregnancy was also a surprise, and I remember having an alcoholic drink on at least three different occasions (although I'm not a heavy drinker...1-2 martinis per occasion). I'm almost in my third trimester and all is great with my baby, she's developing well! I asked the doctor about drinking and she said as long as you're not drinking now, the sooner the better that you stop.

anna.hines | February 04 , 2009 3:22 PM

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

I also have many friends who have drank early in their pregnancy before knowing they were pregnant and have had perfectly healthy babies. I think the more you drink throughout your entire pregnancy, the worse your chances are of having a problem. The March of Dimes says no amount is safe at any time during your pregnancy, but that is because they cannot determine at what point or what amount of alcohol causes problems to occur. If you only drank in the early weeks before knowing you're pregnant, chances are you and your baby will be just fine. Oh, and by the way crystyle12, back when our grandma's were pregnant, they still had missed periods in those days, so they would know they were pregnant before they were showing! Missed periods are not a modernized symptom of pregnancy!

annieandryanfloyd | February 12 , 2009 4:51 PM

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

I had a martini before I knew I was prego and I only had a few drinks and my kidney felt like it was going to fall out.. I guess I had a bad kidney infection, but I didn’t have anything after that bad experience and my baby seems fine so far. I am 14 weeks.

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

My best friend Dani had a surprise pregnancy and had a lot more than a few drinks for her birthday. When she found out she was pregnant, she quit drinking immediately. She gave birth and her child is healthy and beautiful.I'm not saying getting drunk is okay. I'm saying that if you have a couple of drinks before you know won't necessarily have fetal alcohol syndrome. Just be careful if you have any thought that you might be pregnant!

vivalarevolution | April 05 , 2009 12:20 PM

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

Weeks 3-8 of pregnancy are the most critical for avoiding alcohol/drugs as this is when the major organs are being formed. Fine tuning of major organs as well as nervous system development occurs for the rest of the period...which is why FAS babies primarily have developmental disorders rather than major organ malformations. Bottom line, if you can't wait 9 months for a drink it's probably a sign that you may need some sort of help with substance abuse....question is, what about NA beer? Hope that helps. I'm a medical student, not a Dr, but those were the key points I remember from my OB/Gyn rotation.

kateandjt | May 08 , 2009 6:11 PM

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

"Bottom line, if you can't wait 9 months for a drink it's probably a sign that you may need some sort of help with substance abuse...."I don't think anyone is saying that they are having a hard time not drinking... they are worried about what they drink before they knew they were pregnant. I am in the same boat. The day before I found out I was pregnant, I had a couple of glasses of wine... I haven't drank since nor do I have any desire to. But what I did before I knew scares me.

jaclynloretta | May 30 , 2009 1:11 PM

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

Everything I've read says that chances are no damaged was caused from early pregnancy drinking...as long as you STOP once you know you're pregnant. I personally don't think I could have a drink while pregnant as I would feel enormous guilt. I've been pregnant for about two months and I just found out. I drank all the weekends in between...although I never did get wasted. So, I was also nervous about this but I think it's a pretty common occurence (not knowing and drinking).

Orchid86 | June 03 , 2009 2:57 PM

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

Of course a few days before I found out I was pregnant I spent my Friday night sipping a martini and eating sushi with friends. My doctor said it is nothing to worry about and many women have a few drinks before they find out they are pregnant. You just should stop drinking after you find out.

Citywife | June 07 , 2009 9:03 PM

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

I had a shot of Patron the day after i got married (May 1st). I didnt realize i was pregnant until May 13th. Could it be possible that that one shot could do damage to my baby? Even that early?

pregnantalready09 | June 13 , 2009 5:40 PM

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

that was ignorant for whoever said anyone here has any desire to drink. Must be a sucky med student if you can't even read the fine print. NO ONE WANTS TO DRINK. Everyone is wondering if they are in the clear. A lot of good points were made like alcohol isn't safe in any amount because we don't know much about when it does the most damage or with how much. So basically stop drinking when you find out and you should be fine. I had a mojito the day before i found out i was pregnant and im pretty sure i'm fine

Tinkx123x | June 23 , 2009 10:01 AM

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

Ladies...I went to Mardi Gras, had my share of 'hurricanes' before officially finding out I was pregnant. My little boy is developing just fine - I'm currently 5 months and 3 weeks. Take a deep breath, talk to you doctor and try not to stress too much because that's not good for your baby.

katielea17 | July 03 , 2009 12:22 PM

re: Q: Alcohol after conceiving?

Ok well i have i very healthy 2 year old lil girl, and i didnt find out i was preggo with her till i was 8 weeks and i use to go out every weekend and drink with friends. like my dr said the problems are from when moms drink there whole pegnancy not just the first few weeks. So from my experience it nothing to stress bout i mean dont get me wrong i was freaking out when i found out i was preggo. but she is fine and she has not had any problems

ABearden09 | July 09 , 2009 2:56 PM

Caffeine during ovulation week

I love coffee & usually have 2 big cups per day, and on the weekends and my days off I usually meet friends for coffee, which is usually a cappuccino with skim milk & an extra shot of espresso. Once I'm pregnant, I will stop the caffeine intake but could my current caffeine intake prevent me from getting pregnant? (Next week is when we'll be trying again).

amalloy1 | July 16 , 2009 10:45 AM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

Let me start off by saying I am not saying this is what I am doing. I have 3 friends who had their perfectly healthy beautiful babies within the past few months and all 3 had different doctors and all 3 of their doctors said that a glass of wine every now and then (but no more than 1 a week) is fine. Also, in Europe women continue to drink wine throughout their pregnancy. Again, not saying one SHOULd just saying that a few drinks before you knew is fine and you should not be worried about it. My doctor said a glass of wine every now and then will not hurt but that it is never a good thing to play around with and her recommendation was to not drink at all. AGAIN, I am not personally drinking during my pregnancy just saying that you shouldn't stress if you did have a few early on.

jscogin | July 20 , 2009 1:33 PM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

I am in my 12th week of pregnancy- I also have a two year old daughter. I have a beer or a glass of wine every once in awhile. It's not going to hurt your baby if you have a few drinks in moderation- and my husband is a Doctor. I would recommend everyone to relax~ enjoy your pregnancy and stop stressing!

Ever see that show, I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant? I've come to the conclusion that everyone featured on that show is a total lush, and so far, all of the babies are healthy, with no signs of FAS...Not like I'm basing my opinion on a tv show, but just saying. Talk to your doc and your SO

Erin0922 | August 20 , 2009 10:14 PM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

From what I've read and heard from my doctor, if you were so early on in your pregnancy that you didn't know about it, than alcohol isn't going to have any affect (esp just a few drinks). My OBGYN even said that it wasn't necessary to stop drinking while trying to conceive. I cut back while trying, but had a few drinks during the first few weeks I didn't know I was pregnant.

nstirling | August 21 , 2009 5:20 PM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

My sister drank a bottle of wine before she found out she was pregnant. And my nephew is amazing and healthy and awesome! Your paranoia is worse for the baby than the few drinks... Stop when you find out you're preggo and you'll be fine.

tomtum | August 31 , 2009 9:48 AM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

With my daughter there were a few times that I had drinks before I knew I was pregnant (I am highly irregular with periods, so I never know if I am pregnant, truly). The same thing happened with being pregnant now. My husband and I like to have a glass of wine with dinner. Well, that stopped immediately when we found out I was pregnant and my Dr. did not seem concerned. I would agree with the PP that said that our grandmas didn't know until much later and the kids were fine. I taught a fetal alcohol kid, and you really need to drink a lot to affect them. NOT saying at all that drinking is OK, but our bodies and babies are more resilient than that, especially in the early weeks.

MommyMeredith | September 27 , 2009 9:30 PM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

I just found out I am 5-6 weeks pregnant and in my 3 - 4 weeks I was drinking heavily. I went to a football tailgate, a night out with friends, and then spent 4 days out of town at a wedding. I drank heavily the night of the wedding. To me it was kind of my last hurrah before what I thought was going to be fertility treatments. My dr. told me it was highly unlikely I could get pregnant and I was waiting for period to come. Well that period never came and at the end of 5 weeks I had a positive test. The 1st week I felt awful. I am still waking up at night thinking about how irresponsible I was and feel horrible. Almost sick to my stomach about it. I guess there is nothing I can do at this point but from the sounds of it alot of people were/are in the same situation I am. I see my dr. next week and will talk to him about it....I just feel really bad and concerned.

daisyrun | October 22 , 2009 10:22 AM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

My doctor explained to me that for the first month the baby has it's own protective sac (like an egg) and only later - once most of us have found out we're pregnant - does it get all it's nutrients from the placenta. She said this protects the baby from things like alcohol, etc, until we realize we're pregnant and can cut it out completely

MEGettinger | October 23 , 2009 9:16 AM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

This is not a recommendation, but just a piece of info. I have friends who drank an occasional glass of wine while pregnant and their kid are beautiful.

ally2581 | November 11 , 2009 9:02 PM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

I've also had several friends that had more than a few drinks on more than a few occassions before learning they were pregnant. All had very beautiful and healthy children. I had several drinks on an occassion before I found out I was pregnant (I was not trying to conceive!), and honestly, I'm not worried. People have been having babies for generations before we knew the dangers of alcohol and smoking, and the human race has continued to thrive. I'm not telling anyone to go out and booze it up, but I don't think one glass of wine will cause fetal death.

KatieBaby1984 | December 17 , 2009 1:05 PM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

@daisyrun : Are you willing to share how are you/your baby doing now? I am in a similar situation as you (several nights, multiple drinks weeks 4-5) so would really like to hear how things are going for you (good or bad). Found out I was pregnant week 6. Freaking out now. Thanks.

wheresmimi | January 04 , 2010 7:43 PM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

Your baby should be fine. Your intake doesn't get routed to the baby until the umbilical cord forms. Conception is before implantation so by the time the egg implants the alcohol should be out of your system.

SCSmithbride | January 06 , 2010 10:03 AM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

Same thing as whereamimi and daisyrun--I go out a lot with my husband and friends: football tailgaiting, bars, etc... and typically have more than a few drinks. We were trying for 8 months and never got pregnant. I decided to go back to school, so about 3 months ago we stopped trying and used other forms of birth control. I am super irregular on my periods, was cramping and my breasts hurt, but that always happens before I start. I thought I was about to get my period!! Nope, at my annual exam, they said I was pregnant! They thought it was an ectopic at first, but more sensitive ultrasound shows it in the right place it is just TINY, they think I could be 4 1/2-5 weeks pregnant. Need more bloodwork tomorrow to doublecheck. I had no idea!! Now, I am slightly freaking out, I've been drinking alcohol, redbulls, etc... Of course, I have stopped now and have no plans to drink caffeine or alcohol while pregnant (I just found out yesterday!). But what if something I did before I knew causes a problem? Yikes!!

MelNDoug | January 07 , 2010 1:55 PM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

I have the same fears... I found out I was pregnant when I was 5 weeks, and I usually have several drinks on the weekends. Right around the time I conceived I was very ill with the flu and I was taking Nyquil, dayquil and Mucinex every day for the first 2 weeks. I also pulled a muscle and took a few vicodins for it. I'm very nervous that I did some damage to the baby, hopefully everything will be okay though, thats all I can hope for!!

My opinion...why risk it at all? Shouldnt we be doing everything possible to make sure our babies are safe and healthy? I understand the fear...so i only drink while I'm actually on my period so i dont have to go through the worry that ive done something to my unborn child. personally...I cant take that risk.

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

i drank on two different occasions b4 finding out i was pregnant. I am a nurse, and once i found out i was pregnant i talked to a labor and delivery nurse who said i should be fine as long as i dont drink anymore. she also stated about 90% of women drink before they know they are pregnant! So hopefully our babies are growing healthy!

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

Drinking before you know you are pregnant can significantly affect your cild. I had a false negative pregnancy test, irregular cycle and unplanned/unexpected pregnancy. I discovered I was pregnant at 5 weeks. I drank 2-3 drinks on weekends only and stopped when I found out. My pediatrician and good friends tried to tell me my child was fine but I knew he was different. I had him tested and he has significant memory and processing speed delays, ADHD and autism spectrum as well as some physical deformities. I live with profound grief and guilt. I feel it's my obligation to warn everyone. No contraception - no alcohol. Ever. Also get help right after birth. Early intervention is critical!

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

Regarding the comments "In Europe, women continue to drink through out their pregnancy", I have to strongly disagree. My whole family is from Europe, and when I mentioned this to them, they were shocked. They quickly mentioned how their doctors all emphasized that drinking throughout pregnancy leads to severe learning & developmental disabilities. I had a friend that also swore that Europeans drank wine every week, so she too drank through her whole pregnancy. Now her baby is now over a year, they are seeing major issues with her developmental skills as far as crawling goes and her lack of growth.

I didn't know I was pregnant and went to a baseball game with my husband and some friends. i had a beer with lunch and a beer at the game but then got extremely bloated and sick feeling so i switched to water for the remainder of the day. 3 days later I took a pregnancy test and turns out I'm 6 weeks pregnant! I guess my body was telling me not to drink that day :)

As I was saying on other post on this site,alcohol is bad while conceiving and after.Pregnancy drinking is one of the top preventable causes of birth defects and developmental disabilities in babies.Any volunteer for drug rehab centers in Massachusetts center could tell you that alcohol can easily become a problem after birth.But if I wouldn't be worried if I were you.The amount you drank that night couldn't affect your baby because the fetus wasn't formed at that time.Plus the alcohol was out of your system by the next day.

ednamay | September 12 , 2011 1:30 PM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

I don't think you should be worried,but you should stop consuming alcohol while pregnant.Addiction is due 50 percent to genetic predisposition and 50 percent to poor coping skills. This has been confirmed by numerous studies. One study looked at 861 identical twin pairs and 653 fraternal (non-identical) twin pairs. When one identical twin was addicted to alcohol, the other twin had a high probability of being addicted. But when one non-identical twin was addicted to alcohol, the other twin did not necessarily have an addiction. Based on the differences between the identical and non-identical twins, the study showed 50-60% of addiction is due to genetic factors. Those numbers have been confirmed by other studies.Also the children of addicts are 8 times more likely to develop an addiction. One study looked at 231 people who were diagnosed with drug or alcohol addiction, and compared them to 61 people who did not have an addiction. Then it looked at the first-degree relatives (parents, siblings, or children) of those people. It discovered that if a parent has a drug or alcohol addiction, the child had an 8 times greater chance of developing an addiction. An alcohol rehab center can give the addict a second chance and help him.Some people may have given up the addiction without any help from a center,but not many can resist the relapse.A rehab center gives you a chance to cope with the addiction and can help you through its resources to put an end to the addiction.

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

You should not take alcohol if you have conceived. Drinking during pregnancy could affect the baby. As a mother you surely would not want to harm the baby. So stop drinking. Having alcohol is bad for your health too. You would be surprised to know the number of people take admission in NJ rehab for treating alcohol addiction.

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

If you plan on breastfeeding your baby, alcohol or cannabis seeds shouldn't be on your menu. I think that your OB should have told you that alcohol gets in the blood stream and then it can get through the breast milk to your baby.

ibmdude | December 03 , 2011 1:41 PM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

While pregnant, all you consume eventually ends up in your baby's blood stream that's why you should avoid consuming alcohol or undergoing any potentially harmful drug treatment. Although no one knows if one drink can do any damage, it's better to just stay away from it. It's always better to be safe than sorry.

JonahClint | December 06 , 2011 9:26 AM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

Any doctor will tell you that alcohol can do a lot of harm to your baby when you are pregnant. It's better to enter a drug rehab program and rid of all vices before conceiving. This way your baby will develop normally and start with the most chances in life.

DavieAlvin | December 06 , 2011 2:48 PM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

It is a known fact that during pregnancy you are not supposed to consume alcohol. It is great to know that you are so concerned. It is best for women to keep alcohol, drugs away during this time. Drugs could be really fatal. To battle drug addiction, drug rehabs are now available at many places like New York, California, drug rehab centers Washington.

I don't think it is a problem if you choose the right food wine pairing. You don't have to worry about that , the problem is that you are not allowed to drink during your pregnancy.

Starky20 | December 30 , 2011 12:09 PM

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

I am only in my first trimester, but as our pregnancy was a surprise, I had 2 nights of getting drunk before I found out I had our little peanut in there. I am concerned, but I have stopped drinking since I found out and I think it's really the only thing that can be done. Worrying only causes stress on your body and is bad for the baby. I just think about the fact that I know quite a few people who have done the same thing, and all of their children have turned out happy and healthy.

Q&A: Danger of alcohol after conceiving?

In my opinion the crap that is found in most packaged foods and FAST FOOD is going to do way more harm than a glass of red wine, which is found to be good for the heart and no evidence has been found in limited amounts to be harmful to a baby. I have a small glass of wine every now and again and my baby is doing GREAT.
