Do not drink alcohol when you are pregnant. Because when you drink alcohol, so does your baby. Think about it. Everything you drink, your baby also drinks. Drinking any kind of alcohol when you are pregnant can hurt your baby.
Alcoholic drinks are beer, wine, wine coolers, liquor, or mixed drinks.
A glass of wine, a can of beer, and a mixed drink all have about the same amount of alcohol. Every pregnancy is different. Drinking alcohol may hurt one baby more than another. You could have one child that is born healthy, and another child that is born with problems. These problems will last for a child's whole life.
