1st Trimester

How much is too much?

Ok, i am about to sound like a huge lush, but here goes.  I dont know my exact conception date until my u/s appointment, but i most definetly overlapped with several events where i drank.

I mean vacation, a couple of birthdays, girls night, another party....and no I wasnt rolling around on the floor after, but it wasnt one drink either.  I am very worried, and will def bring it up with the dr, but until then....pulling my hair out.

  • Exactly as PP states, many people don't even know they are pregnant drink. I had a beer last night and got a BFP today! But I have also read you don't share blood with baby until a few more weeks. Don't stress

  • Thank you for your replies. It is reassuring to hear, and my drinking would hardly be considered bindges, but certainly something I wouldnt have done had I known we were pregers already.

  • Ditto to what the PPs said, lots of girls don't realize they are pregnant right off the bat and continue to drink/smoke/take meds. You're good.

  • Don't worry. With my first pg, during the 2 weeks before I found out, we went out a lot and had quite a bit to drink. Enough to where I remember not having a pleasant morning. Lol. Happens all the time and there is nothing you can do. As the pp said, You

  • We did not find out until we were like almost 6 weeks.

    We had several holiday parties where we drank a lot. The Dr was not concerned and said we should be fine.

  • With my DS I was in college and have PCOS (so very irregular periods), so I didn't know for about 3 weeks when the MS started.  As most college kids do, we were partying every night... I was very concerned with this too, but DS is just fine.
