Is it safe to consume one alcoholic beverage per day?
We prefer you do not drink or smoke during pregnancy. Alcohol is one of the few substances that can have negative effects on the baby throughout pregnancy. There are no studies that have determined a “safe amount” that can be taken during pregnancy. It would be difficult to prove that an occasional glass of wine or equivalent would be detrimental to fetal wellbeing. We support the recommendation that NO alcohol be consumed during your pregnancy.
