In a new clinical report, the American Academy of Pediatrics makes the issue crystal clear from their perspective, based on the available research to date: no amount of alcohol is safe to drink during pregnancy, period. No lower threshold of safe consumption has ever been established, and prenatal alcohol alcohol remains the “leading preventable cause of birth defects and intellectual and neurodevelopmental disabilities,” the AAP states.
A study quoted here says 10% of pregnant women drink alcohol during their pregnancy. http://www.livescience.com/52294-pre...nsumption.html
