Red Wine While Pregnant

I have heard many different people say it is okay to drink red wine while you are pregnant. Is this true?

Well I have alos heard many diffrent things, but whne I was pregnat with my daughter I went 3 weeks overdue so the doctor told me to have a small glass before bed to try and relax me for labor. I guesss it depends on what your doctor says but I wouldnt drink wine between the 5 ans 12 weeks becaue thats when the most important stuff is ddevelpoing.

It may not harm your baby, but there is no solid proof that is is completely safe. Personally, I do not drink while pregnant, just because I do not want to take any risks. So if you ask me, I would say not to drink any alcohol while pregnant, just to be on the safe side. 9 months isn't that long, and then you can drink all you want! Goodluck!

I agree with kate....No proof that it won't do harm, even in small amounts. I would steer clear of it!
