Is it alright if I had alcohol for the past 1 week only now to realise Im pregnant?

hi, adding to the anecdotal stories.. we happen to have friends that were not aware they were pregnant and consumed a fair amount of alcohol during group birthday parties and what not. they delivered perfectly healthy babies. Our dr. gave us a very valuable piece of advice... don't lose sleep over the things that have already happened and was beyond your knowledge/control... happy and relaxed mommies produce happy babies and that's what you can focus on now.

how about focusing on something fun like shopping for the nursery instead? =P

PS - we had our 20 week scan at QM today and during the scan, the dr. said to his apprentice that certain issues are less prevalent now compared to 10 years ago due to the intake of folic acid... he encouraged taking them if we weren't already doing so. it's not too late to start a good prenatal vitamin. good luck and sweet dreams :)
