About this service
A babys brain and nervous system are vulnerable to damage from alcohol consumption in pregnancy; drinking at any point during pregnancy can result in lifelong disabilities. Its simply safest not to drink alcohol during pregnancy. Many underlying factors may impel a woman to drink during pregnancy from lack of knowledge about the risks to social pressures to alcohol dependence and untreated mental health problems.
Adverse life events, gender-based violence, trauma, stress, social isolation and a partners drinking have all been linked to higher risks for alcohol-exposed pregnancies. Genetics, poverty, poor nutrition and lack of social support networks also affect drinking and its consequences.
