Pregnant women can drink in moderation, but why risk it. So much can go wrong why add that to the mix. That's at least my wife's opinion.

I don't think there's any evidence things can go wrong on 1-2 units once or twice a week, is there?

I agree with you, but can't we really go without alcohol for 9 months?

We can go without a lot of things. The point here is whether the evidence indicates a need to.

But in Norway alcohol is evil. At least from what I can see from government sponsored ads. So a pregnant women drinking is a big no-no!

Suggests its cultural norms rather than evidence. I was advised a small glass of red wine a couple of times a week helps to keep iron up

I think ultimately it's about protecting the babies from mothers that can't control themselves. I'm not sure it's a bad idea, to be honest.

If you think you won't be able to stop if you have a glass, shouldn't touch it at all, no.

In one way I blame this idea that alcohol is bad that is hammered into childrens since they're kids. It's the forbidden fruit effect.

Probably! Have noticed Americans can also be quite neurotic & defensive abt alcohol. Brits & Irish just guzzle it unapologetically.

Like most pleasures in life, moderation is the key.
