Alcohol and Pregnancy (Pregnancy Health Guru)

[SeeSeeCat]

If the mom informs herself and can trust her own ability to stop at just 1 glass, I think that is better than putting unnecessary limits on every pregnant women, making pregnancy unbearable and stressful. Inform yourself and use common sense before saying no to everything and judging others.

[SeeSeeCat]

the reason why doctors say no drinking to pregnant women is because they don't think we can judge what is an appropriate amount. There is a big difference between getting wasted every weekend and have 1/2 a glass of champagne at Christmas. There is a lot of research on this subject and even with up to 10 units per week, there were no effects on the child even years later. This thinking is very ancient, but I agree that it is better to be safe than sorry if the dr doesn't know the patient well.

my sons birth mother drunk and smoked hevey when preg we have a feeling his disorder and behavyor is due to it i am strongly against drinking when pregnant

[EmoElmoOnHigh]

According to a recent article I read, 1 glass of red wine, once a week is just fine :)

[WeThePeopleRleaders]

some women are just stupid. They clearly say that you shouldnt do that and they choose to be selfish. Like pregnant women who eat tons of crap with they are pregnant and then get pissed off when the kid is 3 and doesnt want to eat their greens just bc their hypocrite mom says so- really? duh! also when a mother drinks throughout pregnancy she then gets mad that her kid is a pain in the ass or retarded. theres too many smug hypocrite preggos who keep making more people suffer- its sad :(

so glad im a dude

and ANOTHER thing is you don't see them locking up drunk pregnant mothers in mental institutions, you see them locking up drug addicted pregnant moms or something else. What's up with that?

[lilygirlrules]

i dont even know why people drink anyway. it tastes disgusting! i had to drink it for church and it was terrible.

[LemonTwang10]

Does this include wine?  Thanks for the education and trying to help people have healthy babies

[videowatcheer]

yes includes wine

some doctors say its safe but really there are no safe amounts in pregancies

[Chick6517]

well i was bored before and after watching tjhis video it gave me some entertaintment and encouraged me to keep watching haha :] nicely done.

[Jenna10227]

"unborn babies and booze don't mix"

haha wow no shit

[GuitarRockinChick18]

well my doc says a glass (meaning 1 serving of 1 cup or less) of red wine A WEEK not daily, but a week, is FINE! the iron in the glass of wine is high and does nothing to hurt the baby. Now if only this doc told the truth the last time AND this time instead of posting two videos of the same damn thing everyone would know the truth. 1 A WEEK, not daily!! remember that folks.

[videowatcheer]

its a matter of opionion when it comes to this issue

I have beev told its not safe

The unborn baby its always developing something at any given moment and alchol in any amounts will have an affect so again its not fact but personal choice

[GuitarRockinChick18]

Its a matter of choice, but it is scientifically safe to have a glass of red wine a week. I won't do it, maybe once if I get pregnant, but that's just because I don't like to drink. Did you know there are natural estrogen hormones in beer?? Yup found that out the other day, which is another thing you can drink once a week is one serving of beer. But yes its a matter of choice.

[videowatcheer]

it is not scientifically safe

what is known is that they don't really know what the effects are in small amounts but what they do know is no amounts are compeletly safe

its a matter of opionon and that includes your doctors

[lommylom]

its better to be safe and dont than risking defects by drinking

[ilovenbcnews]

now i wonder why that mother who appeared on OPRAH a few years back for being denied alcohol in a bar , and claimed she was misstreated couldn't get it, i guess she was and is STUPID?

[PwnBucket]

So quit drinking when you're pregnant, you selfish bastards....

[videowatcheer]

lots of doctors advise one drink a week is safe, so it comes down to a personal choice

[GuitarRockinChick18]

EXACTLY!!! lol theyve posted this video twice already (once with a diff title) and the "doc" in this video dosnt tell anybody this. Ive noticed that about docs, they dont like to tell the whole truth, more of white lies to everyone they come into contact with lol.

[videowatcheer]

well I agree with the doc in this video I did lots of studies in school on this issue and knowing how high the risks are and how little it takes to do damage I choose not to drink during my pregnancies I can hold off on a glass of wine for nine months

[GuitarRockinChick18]

Yeah, you can agree with her because she is telling the truth, BUT she isnt telling the whole truth. she doesnt say how its ok to have one serving a week. not to over do it. I wonder why they havent made a video of the affects of marijuana and a fetus yet.

[videowatcheer]

but she is telling the truth when a doctor tells you its Ok its his or her opionion

look it up no amount of alchol in pregnancy is completely safe

try going to the website mother risk

do some of your own reading

NO amount of alochol is compeletly safe

[derouin87]

becuase the effect of weed is really just a possibility of a lower birth rate. its not as bad as cigarette smoke and definitely nothing like alcohol or any other drug

[derouin87]

*weight not rate. lol

[GuitarRockinChick18]

I think it's because they don't have anything else better to talk about. You don't seem them talking about marijuanal pregnancy use, but we have labels on cigarette packs and beer.

Plus where is their credible sources? They always talk about this stuff and don't have the sources in their info bar. That, my friend, is bad research.

Badom... Omm.... Ommmmmm@!##%!^!$@#
