If desired after children no alcohol

In the first weeks of pregnancy, alcohol damages the health of the child?

(10.07.2010) Women should not drink alcohol during pregnancy. But women who notice a pregnancy too late and who have drunk alcohol in the initial phase are worried about the health of their unborn child. At least for the first two weeks, the German Society for Gynecology and Obstetrics (DGGG) gives an all-clear.

It happens again and again, women who notice a pregnancy in the first weeks too late, drink here and there still alcohol. If the pregnancy is fixed, many expectant mothers worry about the future health of the child. However, the German Society for Gynecology and Obstetrics gives at least for the first two weeks of pregnancy an all-clear. Women who have drunk a sip of alcohol in the first two weeks do not need to worry about possible early damage.

If you want to get pregnant and have a desire to have a child, should abstain from alcohol, according to the gynecologists. Because from the fifth to the twelfth week of pregnancy it is particularly dangerous to drink alcohol, because at this time vital organs and the nervous system are created. From the fourth month of pregnancy, the misuse of medicines can lead to premature labor or to the growth of the child. The Council of Physicians: Basically no alcohol and medication should be discussed with a gynecologist. (Sb)
