Alcohol And Pregnancy

I am not pregnant again *yet* (positive
thinking lol) but I was just wondering
about your views on alcohol and pregnancy
when I was carrying aydan I did drink not
stupidly or anything but I did have the
odd glass of wine. With lucas I didnt
drink at all.
Its just I read in an article today that
said doctors should start telling patients
to avoid alcohol all together where
prevoiusly they were told that 2 units
over a period of 1-2 weeks was fine
(although this might just be .U.K).
Apparently there are now reports that
women who have drunk extremely moderate
amounts of alcohol while pregnant have had
babies born with .F.A.S (foetal alcohol
syndrome). Experts have now ran tests
which show that babies 'jump' in the womb
from the mother drinking just one glass of
wine.
Just wanted to know everyone elses views
on it

I haven't had any alcohol while pregnant,
but I wasn't a drinker beforehand either.
I don't like the taste of alcohol.

I drank about half a glass of fizzy wine
on my wedding day -yes I was pregnant on
my wedding day  -
and I think I did the same at .Christmas
but that was it. It was just for the
taste really and not to feel any effects -
the way I saw it, if I was feeling the
effects of the alcohol then my baby was
too.
For any future pregnancies though, I won't
drink alcohol at all because I know more
about the risks now.

I didn't drink at all during my pregnancy.
But then again, I only drink socially
anyway. So it wasn't a huge thing to
"give up".
I'm breastfeeding now, so .I'm not
drinking now either. I'm sure it's fine
to drink a bit and not have it affect your
milk, but I would really rather not take
any chances when it comes to my daughter.
I haven't had a drink since before I got
pregnant.
