A new Danish study shows moderate drinking of a moderate amount of alcohol during pregnancy does not affect your baby, but many medical professionals are quickly jumping up to say “not so fast!” 

Dr. Jill Waggoner says the study remains controversial, not a consensus handbook to follow immediately…



Dr. Waggoner says only 5-year olds were used in the study, which limits the results, and subtle abnormalities could have been missed with the younger children.  She says the study is best used to encourage mothers who drank before realizing they were pregnant not to worry drastically.
