Questions for Your OB

Question: Is an occasional drink OK?

Fetal alcohol syndrome has become a well-documented issue in pregnancy. But does that mean absolutely no alcohol? Some are surprised to find a few pregnancy books may recommend a glass of wine to relax during the beginning of contractions. So when is alcohol OK? Or is it? This is an important subject to discuss with your doctor.
