How do you no if alcohol has affect an unborn baby?

Question

how do you no if your unborn baby will have problems? i drank alot for the 1st 3 months before i knew i was pregnant and now im worried

Answer 1

When the baby is born. Make it walk a straight line and touch its fingers to its nose. If it can't do it, it's drunk.  

Answer 2

Talk to your doctor.  He will have a better idea of if you drank enough to cauase Fetal Alcohol Syndrom.  Usually, women who have babies with FAS had drank at least 3 or more drinks in one setting on a regular basis.

And it's spelled "know".

"no" is the opposite of "yes".

Answer 3

There is nothing you can do now, and worrying is not good for baby. Hopefully everything will be ok, sometimes things that are wrong don't show till school age. HOWEVER, be a good mom, eat good food, take very good care of baby. I think some of these problems that are related to drinking are because the mother doesn't change her behavior and the children are not properly cared for after birth. Good luck honey!!! Always put baby's welfare ahead of yours!!!!

Answer 4

You won't know for certain until your child is born, but there are indicators that can be seen on an ultrasound that can give you a percentage of risk.

Answer 5

Tell your Dr. and he/she can test your baby for Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. I've read that their are women who drink throughout there pregnancy and have children that don't have FAS, others have children that do have FAS and they had just one single drink. Hopefully your baby is okay. Take care of yourself and your baby. Stay away from alcohol.
