Expectant mothers can OCCASIONALLY have 6 oz of wine or beer but not everyday.  This can cause fetal alcohol syndrom; learning disabilities, colic, just to name a few.  This woman was very lucky her other children came out with no problems or did they do they have learning disabilities, are any of them have any forms of autism.  One thing you can do is contact your local March of Dimes and request information on fetal alcohol syndrom and the fact on pregnancy and drinking.  Then in a non threating manner talk to your friend about it and tell her that you were concerned about the health of the baby and did a little research and you have some info to share with her and let her know you are not being judgemental but are genuinely concerned and then leave it alone.  Remeber she is the one who has to live with the consequences of her actions.  Give her some food for thought.

Yes, you can have sex through any point of your pregnancy as long as you are comfortable doing it.

It is safe to have sex right up until the birth of the child unless there is a medical problem.\n\nIf it is a healthy uncomplicated pregnancy, go for it.\n\nMost women have a higher libido whilst pregnant.

Rubbing Alcohol and move it as you add alcohol.  Watch for pus.  THAT will be a very bad sign.

I think as long as you're not bleeding, you should be ok.  (Alcohol thins your blood, so don't get drunk if you're bleeding or you'll bleed more.)

I'm not sure what all your asterisks are, but it's ok to have sex while your pregnant unless your doctor says there's a problem.  I hope that's what you were asking.

I highly doubt that your doctor would give you something that would cause birth defects.  There are antibiotics that are safe to use during pregnancy.  If you are that concerned I suggest you ask your doctor about it.

There are some old wive's tales that suggest drinking dark beers (such as guinness) are good for the baby, however most medical research concludes that any amount of alcohol can be detrimental to the baby's health.\n\nWould you feed your newborn a bottle of beer? I didn't think so... because your baby's nutrients come solely from you, be sure to think carefully about anything that you put in your body (foods, drinks, medications, etc.)\n\nI know you'll make the right decision! =o)

Well, taking any medication while pregnant is risky.  Being that morphine is a drug adminitered in hospitals only, talk to the doctor that gave it to you about your concerns.

Apparantly so. www.activemanukahoneyusa.com says that it is safe to be eaten/used by pregnant women. \n\nI'd really check with your GP though, just to be on the safe side. x

rent some romantic movies, get some strawberries, get some sparkling cider, the kind that doesn't have any alcohol content in it, and have an evening together just relaxing and enjoying each other's company. u can give each other massages, though be careful of ur belly, bc if a pregnant woman is massaged on her tummy, it can lead to premature labor.  Good luck, and congrats!!

As soon as you find out you are pregnant  you should quit smoking.  You can't do anything about the cigarettes you smoked before you realized you were pregnant-so try not to worry.

Legal age is appropriate.  Now if you are really asking when you should try it...that is another question.  Personally I do not know why some people make a big deal about drinking.  Know the facts.  Know what can happen when you drink and drive.  Ask your parents.  In my situation, I was able to drink wine when I was a child for religious reasons.  Now I did not like it.  My sister did!  She was a year younger than me also.  I look back and chuckle because she became a big drinker and now she doesn't even drink.  I am not against drinking...but I also do not keep any alcohol in my house.  I do not need it, want it, or even crave it.  You are obviously are young and do not let peer pressure detour what you want.  I have 2 children 18 and 20.  My son has tried beer...didn't like it.  My daughter has not tried anything.  I am very lucky because their Dad is a big beer drinker and I didn't actually drink.  I guess they went after my example. I do have a margarita once in a blue moon, but that is it.  You will know when the time is right.  Just wait until you know it is right for you.  Underage drinking is not acceptable.  Remember this.

Ive heard cranberry juice, then again i wouldnt know because im not a smoker. Other than that you could stick a baby in your purse, go into the bathroom and squeeze some out into the cup.

Definitely not! Whirlpools and saunas are big no-no's for pregnant women! The temperature is way too high for the baby.
