Health professionals recommend it's safe to avoid alcohol completely during pregnancy. Moreover, if you can not leave alcohol and you are very addicted to it, limit it to 1 or not more than 2 units no more then twice or once in a week. 

Never enough to get drink it can cause serious harm to your unborn baby. Getting drunk by heavy or binge drinking during your pregnancy can cause harm to your baby. Heavy drinking is regularly having five or more units of alcohol per day. Binge drinking is six or more units of alcohol in one session. 

The more you drink, the higher your baby's risk of developing problems that will last a lifetime. These problems range from fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD) to fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS), depending on how heavy or frequent your drinking is. 

When you have an alcoholic drink, the alcohol goes into your bloodstream. Once alcohol is in your bloodstream, it reaches your baby across the placenta. 

Babies born with FASD may have problems with attention, learning and social understanding, as well as speech, and often don't grow as well as they should. A baby born with FAS, the most severe condition caused by alcohol, may also have brain damage and abnormal facial features so when you drink keep this all about you baby health in mind.
