Maybe It's Just Me
You're splitting hairs. I don't give a **** if it's once a month while pregnant. You're pregnant and should not be drinking at all.
And it's you're mom that drank through her pregnancy, not mine. My mom actually gave a **** about me and had the good sense to not drink while pregnant.
Spelling is not your strong suit. I wonder if that's from a learning disability that you may have due to fetal alcohol syndrome given to you as a little gift from your mom.
Like I said, don't let the door hit you where the good lord split you.

And still you think that's OK?
Really?
And you think I am a bad example for my children? You see my potty mouth was HERE, for adults to read. What you are doing DIRECTLY affects your child. As far as I am concerned, that is child abuse.
And trust me, I would say worse things but because not everyone appreciates a "trucker mouth" I will refrain.
You two are ridiculous if you thought condoning such a thing on a pregnancy board was going to go over well.

When life hands you lemons, ask for tequila & salt and give me a call!
Well, obviously I can't have a civilised debate on this board, so I will leave you ladies in peace. After this response that is.
I am NOT an alcoholic. Just because the people that run Alcoholics Anonymous make that a stipulation doesn't mean to say it is true for everyone. I am more likely to sit and pig out on a bag of chips than get blasted on booze. And neither happen at the moment because I am controlling BOTH.
As for the douche bag comment, I think that has been covered already. God bless you, you need it.
Comparing some minor alcohol consumption during pregnancy to screwing a 12 year old is absolutely ridiculous!
FYI:
My wife's mum drank consistently during her pregnancy. My wife was a gifted child and is still one of the smartest people I know (except she can't spell, but that's half of the populace these days).
My wife's brother was born to a teetotaller, she had since learned the "advice" that pregnant alcohol use is bad. He has suffered with learning disabilities all his life and is currently a 26 year old living at home with a child out of wedlock, and has never held a job for longer than a couple of weeks.
From that limited "study" it could be assumed that we can drink during pregnancy to aid a child's development. But we don't. It is obvious that there were some other factors in play at the time.
And while we are quoting absurd cultural contradictions from third world countries:

Goodbye ladies, next time you judge someone for drinking during pregnancy, perhaps you should read the small print on the products you have in your pantry for any possible fetal risk. If there is something on the box that you need a chemistry master's to understand, I wouldn't eat it. Give me a bottle of beer brewed according to the Reinheitsgebot any day, rather than some of the ridiculous artificial addictives you lot put in your food. Just because it's good in your culture doesn't mean to say it is OK.

Sir, I know I am playing devil's advocate BUT. Why on earth do you feel it necessary to post on a pregnancy board. I am sure you support your wife and all, that's teriffic, but I am sure none of the ladies here hang out on the men's board. Please feel free to move on.
Alcohol consumption while pregnant isn't acceptable in my mind and well since out of the two of us I am the only one that can actually carry a baby, I will stick to my beliefs.
Go with your God.

I post on another pregnancy board that has a few husbands and boyfriends who will post to ask questions. I don't see anything wrong at all with a man posting on the board to get info to support his wife or to even start a good "discussion." The alcohol and smoking topic could be a very very good discussion if handled in the proper manner. This was not. Just my .02 cents.
So not to start a second "discussion" in an already heated thread, but why is it so wrong for a man to post on a pregnancy board? Don't they have the right to ask questions and get information about what their wives/SO's may be going through? Who says only women are entitled to this information?
I personally love when I see men posting on the other boards I post on. It shows they care about the mothers of their children and their children.
