    I forgot to say.. I also got smashed before I realized I was UTD.. 6 beers and half a bottle of red later I was wondering why I was throwing up... Hmmmm.. Found out a few days later I was pregnant! Oops! My DS is just perfect

    I had a few glasses (one on each occasion) of champagne over the course of my pregnancy, only if it was Moet or Bollinger though!

    With the getting blind then finding out youre pregnant thing, it is so, so, so common, I'm sure I remember reading somewhere that in the first trimester the embryo is basically self contained and self sufficient, it feeds off the yolk sac until the placenta grows and kicks in (takes over) at around 10-12 weeks...which is why there isn't too many stories of women with FAS babies because they got smashed once before they knew.

    It's a personal decision hun, like evryone has said, its up to you xoxo

    I didn't drink when i was pregnant, and was disappointed to find after bub was born that my taste for alcohol had changed and i could barely get through a few sips.

    If you have a drink for your birthday, i hope it is a lovely drop!

    It is your choice but I would not do it - it is only nine months (less now).
