What are the effects on the baby if you drink alcohol without knowing you are pregnant?

Alcohol has an impact on the fetus, and it is easy to cause fetal malformations, but it is not a big problem to drink it once in a while, and it must not be drunk in the future. It is advisable to go to the hospital for a check-up to see if there is any effect on the child.

Personally, I don't think it will have much impact on the child at this time, because the occasional drinking will not affect the child.

It is best to abstain from alcohol throughout pregnancy, especially in the first four months of pregnancy, because alcohol is transmitted directly through the placenta to the fetus, and if there is too much alcohol, the fetus will become alcoholic, and the fetus will suffer from alcohol syndrome. Alcohol can also travel directly into the baby's brain through the placenta, causing damage to brain cells. Drinking alcohol in pregnant women may also cause other complications, increasing the chance of miscarriage and premature birth.

If you have drunk alcohol in the early stages of pregnancy and are worried that alcohol will have adverse effects on the fetus, it is best to go to the hospital for a detailed and professional examination, and inform the doctor in detail and truthfully of the facts of drinking, including the time, place, frequency and amount of alcohol, etc., and the doctor can make a record and conduct a targeted examination.

However, pregnant women do not have to worry too much about drinking, because after the alcohol enters the body, it will be broken down and filtered out, and it is also a process of survival of the fittest for the fetus, if the fetus is not "strong" enough, it will quietly leave the mother's body by itself. However, if the fetus survives, it means that the fetus is not necessarily unhealthy, so there is no need to worry too much, and a bad mood will be bad for the fetus.

Pay attention to your diet in the second trimester:

1. The diet should be rich in calcium.

Calcium is an important component for the formation of bones and teeth, the contraction of muscles, and the maintenance of blood function, and needs to be consumed in large amounts during the second trimester. Sardines and dried fish are important for calcium**, but choose foods with less salt. Dairy products, green vegetables, eggs, almonds, sesame seeds, etc., are rich in calcium.

Eating high-calcium foods with beef, pork, and chicken can improve absorption.

2. Adequate intake of iron.

Iron intake can prevent anemia, and iron-rich foods include red meat and animal liver. Iron foods are more absorbable when consumed with vitamin C, which can promote iron absorption in the body. Conversely, beverages such as black tea and coffee contain caffeine, which can interfere with iron absorption in the body.

Pregnant mommy should not drink these drinks 1 hour before eating.

3. Consume foods rich in fiber.

Eating more fibre-rich foods can effectively prevent constipation, but it is necessary to eat modestly so as not to affect the absorption rate of calcium and iron. To get enough fibre, pregnant women can use multigrain rice instead of white rice, vegetable broth instead of broth or chicken broth, and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. Eat more than two kinds of vegetables at each meal, and eat more than one type of seaweed such as kelp, seaweed, kelp, and seaweed.

Before the first three months of pregnancy to quit smoking, alcohol and drinks, women should supplement folic acid and vitamin E in the first three months before preparing to have a child, after pregnancy, the first three months must quit smoking, because the first three months are the formative period of the fetus, at this time external factors have a great impact on him, but it is not absolute, this is related to the pregnant woman's own resistance and immunity, you had better go to the hospital after three months of pregnancy to do a fetal identification to see if the fetus is healthy.

Hello, according to your situation, when drinking alcohol, consider that you have not yet conceived, then the impact on the fetus will not be too great, you can consider retaining, you can go to the hospital at 6-8 weeks of pregnancy to check the ultrasound, check the gestational sac, fetal heartbeat, fetal bud situation, if you feel uncomfortable, please seek medical attention at any time, I wish you good health,
