[quote=Anonymous]Okay, I just found out I am 8 weeks pregnant.  This is a complete shock, to say the least.  I am 40, and last year was told by my doctor that I would not be able to get pregnant naturally.  DH and I were okay with the news, and we were satisfied with being "one and done".  Due to my medical issues, my menstrual cycle has been very irregular for over a year now.  I might bleed for a day or two, then go months before menstruating again.  When I didn't get my period recently, it didn't concern us at all and the possibility of pregnancy is not even something that crossed our mind.  Then, my breasts started getting really swollen and painful.   I took a test, and huge surprise - Pregnant!

I'm still not over the shock yet.  I'm also extremely concerned, as over the past 8 weeks, I have drank quite a bit.  I'm not talking getting sh*t faced drunk or anything, but I have drank pretty large amounts of alcohol probably about 15 times.  I'm extremely worried that I've caused damage to my baby.

Has anyone here drank during their first trimester, and if so, what were the results?

If I don't have another drop of alcohol (obviously) for the rest of the pregnancy, what do you think my baby's chances are?

I am totally freaking out here.[/quote]
