    Do NOT drink alcohol during pregnancy

    • Drinking alcohol in pregnancy can harm the baby and may cause birth defects (fetal alcohol syndrome).
    • Drinking small amounts (1 drink) occasionally may be OK as research has not yet shown this to cause harm to the baby.
    • But the SAFEST thing for the baby is to NOT DRINK any alcohol during pregnancy.
