I'm almost in my second month. People keep recommending that I drink blackberry wine everyday while pregnant because it's really healthy and beneficial. Is this true?
From my experience in the nursing field, no amount of alcohol during pregnancy is safe. Doctors and researchers can't say exactly how much, by consuming alcohol during pregnancy leads to Fetal Alcohol Syndrome.
No wine is good during pregnancy. An occassional SINGLE glass (of blackberry wine, beer, vodka or any other alcohol) is almost certainly harmless, but daily wine (or any other alcohol) is risky.
Who are all these 'people' who are recommending this?
