Alcohol, though commonly consumed, can have profound effects on your health, well-being, and quality of life. At ADDICTED AND PREGNANT, we are dedicated to providing information, support, and treatment for those seeking help with alcohol-related issues. Our goal is to empower individuals to make informed choices about their alcohol consumption and, when needed, guide them on the path to recovery.
Understanding Alcohol
Consuming alcohol during pregnancy can pose serious risks to the developing fetus. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) strongly advise against any amount of alcohol during pregnancy as it can lead to various birth defects and developmental issues.
Alcohol easily passes through the placenta to the fetus, potentially causing fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs), which can result in physical, behavioral, and intellectual disabilities. These effects can vary, but they can be long-lasting and permanent.
It’s highly recommended that pregnant women avoid alcohol entirely throughout the entire duration of their pregnancy, as there is no known safe amount or safe time to drink alcohol during pregnancy.
