did you ever accidentally

.....drink while pregnant?
Two days before I found out, I had one beer...I drank it very slowly, at the time I didn't know why I didnt want it.
A week before that I went to a club and had a lot to drink, beer, alcohol....

I had implantation bleeding the day after the one beer. I read that it takes a long time for the blood to drip down thea canal, and I'm scared I might have hurt my baby because I had the one beer while he/she was fusing to my body.

But then I think about people that do drugs and smoke while they are pregnant, or how back before we had tests people used to drink probably months into it or throughout the whole time, or how on I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant some of them drank throughout, and their babies came out fine....
Did anyone else accidentally drink? How is your baby now?

  • I was at a Halloween party October 29th. Or something like that maybe 30th. I hadn't missed my period and It wasn't supposed to start for another week. And on November 17th found out I was pregnant. I feel awful.
  • Oh and now I'm 18 weeks and the baby seems to be just fine thank god.
  • Girl you ok. I found out Oct. 26. The weekend before that was a party and I had a lot of nuvo and a bottle of arbor mist to myself and I'm sure she's ok
  • I was pregnant with my lil girl and dident find out untill after the christmas when I was 2 months and ild been drinking through out and she's 4 this may and she's fine she's advanced for her age and really cheeky so dw I'm sure ull be fine :) xxx
  • I didn't find out until I was 7 weeks along that I was pregnant and I had been smoking cigarettes and occasionally drinking, but I stopped at around 5 weeks because it was making me sick to my stomach to even look at a pack. I think it was the baby's way of saying he didn't like that. I am 30 weeks now and have taken all the prescreen tests and everything looks great so far. He is extremely active all time so I think he will come out as a happy healthy baby.
  • I got totally drunk at a christmas party-like two bottles of wine on my own plus shots drunk, before I found out I was pregnant with one of my kids. And with this one I had two gin and tonics to celebrate graduating from college. My doctor told me that at that early stage, before the placenta is in place and while the baby is still living off of the yolk sac, it's not a big deal because the baby isn't getting any of the poisons. I mean, it's obviously not something to aspire to, but it's not going to make your baby have fetal alcohol syndrome. Don't worry about it, just take care of yourself from now on and your baby will be fine.
  • Just to be clear, I had the gin and tonics a week before I found out I was expecting this time. :)
  • I took three trips to long island if you know what I mean... it was about five data after conception. I was stressed but now I am six weeks. All I can do is be the healthiest I can be and take care of me and my baby. Don't stress!
  • I didnt knw I was pregnant wuth my 2nd kid.....i.would go out clubbin girl n get wasted ...i was 4month when I found cuz I have inregular periods do to endometerois .....but I quit as soon as I found out n I have a beautiful smart health girl
  • Wow thank you for the replies! I'm still nervous but @magcaw that makes perfect sense about them living off the yolk sac.
    I completely stopped after that one beer because of the implantation bleeding, I knew at that moment I was pregnant. I immediately bought prenatals and omega-3 capsules with dha so I'm taking every precaution from here on out... imo if you're going to do it, do it right :) I've known too many people miscarry because they just didn't care to take care of themselves. One girl I knew even smoked and drank with the intention to MC just because she didn't want the baby...
    Im striving to not be like that.... sorry if I'm rambling lol i just haven't told anyone yet so I have no one to talk to about it. Lol
  • Its ok. I drank a couple beers almost every night and smoked pot. I was worried, so I did some research. It's only really bad if you do it constantly thru most of the first trimester. Just don't do anymore!!!
  • With my first I went out and partied hard for my 18 birthday really hard drank a lot of alcohol and.smoked weed my daughter is 4 and healthy and smart as anything as long as once you find out you do what's right I'm sure you will be fine.
  • On some occasions women actually drink wine in labor haha..
  • I drinked all december and new years I got twisted to the fullest but I threw up like no tomorrow....I'm terrified I harmed my baby ..I regret it everyday...I'm doing my best to make it up resting and eating right...I won't lie I still crave cigarettes but I won't touch one ...take cares mommas
  • I found out I was pregnant at 4 weeks, and new years eve (I didn't know I was pregnant) I was 2 weeks pregnant and I got so drunk I was throwing up and I blacked out ( oops ) and when I found out that night was all I thought of. I felt soo bad. I've been drinking nothing but water since.
