Hopefully your child will be able to spell better than you! And it depends on how much and for how long a time you drank while pregnant. 30 years ago doctors (or d0kters, if you prefer) suggested that mothers to be drank one or two drinks a day to help them relax. Now it's none. Do some research.

Do you remember the last time you had a drink? How did it affect you? It would have the same effect to your baby or maybe worst because he's tiny.I any case, do you really want to risk any damage to your baby? Please go to a clinic and inform urself of anything about pregnancy. Good luck.

Yes i am a psychology major at TSU and it is a verry strong possibility that your baby will have the ADHD, serioussly do a little reaserch on the topic, and you should really stop drinking your beer... if u r reffering to yourself because i hate being adhd. often times it also causes bipolar disorder. .. be careful

Either way, you should learn how to spell because you look like an idiot.
And the baby is probably going to have FAS if you've even gone to school and heard about it.

Mothers-to-be were given another reason to avoid alcohol during pregnancy by a study that shows a possible link between drinking and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
Dr. Roh-Yu Shen and researchers at the State University of New York at Buffalo reported that part of the brain damaged by alcohol before birth involves a complex communication system between nerve cells.
"We have found that the electrical activity of... dopamine neurons in the brain is reduced in the offspring of pregnant rats treated with alcohol," Shen told Reuters Health in an interview[/link]. "These neurons normally generate a certain amount of spontaneous electrical activity... resulting in dopamine release in brain areas... responsible for attention."
Reduced Activity
Dopamine is one of a number of natural chemical substances called neurotransmitters that help transmit impulses across the synapse, or gap, between nerve cell endings.
"We think that attention-hyperactivity problems may be caused by the reduced activity in (these) dopamine neurons," Shen explained. She observed no structural differences in the areas where these neurons are situated, no loss or destruction of neurons, but rather "reduced activity" of the cells in both young and adult animals.
Shen said "alcohol exposure impairs the development of brain dopamine neurons." This impairment "ultimately results in a decrease in the quantity of dopamine released in areas of the brain that control attention and the ability to focus."
Beyond Childhood
The new study results strongly suggest that "substances of abuse could lead to mental deficits that continue beyond childhood." Shen said, "clinicians might want to reexamine the notion that ADHD may be 'outgrown' (since) a reduced dopamine function is a persistent phenomenon during adulthood. It may simply take a more subtle form."
"The rat model provides us with a systematic approach to investigate the therapeutic potential of various pharmacologic agents in ADHD following fetal alcohol exposure." She cited Ritalin as an example of a stimulant drug whose properties may be useful in treating alcohol-induced ADHD.
Alcohol is not the only culprit. Substances such as cocaine and certain psychiatric medications also reduce dopamine neuron activity, she said, and "any events that disrupt dopamine neurons during fetal development, for example, stress, could lead to dysfunction of neurons and ADHD."

Apparently your mothers drinking while she was pregnant with you has seriously affected your spelling and grammar abilities.
I'm so sorry :(

well, not really..as long as u aren't a HEAVY drinker. it is good for u to drink a glass of wine everyday....but i personally..wouldn't do it on purpose! If u are and didn't know.....talk to your OBGYN about your concerns.
