Alcohol and Pregnancy

Do you know someone who is pregnancy and drinking alcohol?

Share this important website with her, www.faslink.org/ Even if you have to intrude, get her attention and stress the importance of her learning about the probable connection between alcohol during pregnancy and the likelihood of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) in her child.

You probably know, or know of, children with ADHD, OCD, ODD (oppositional defiant disorder) and other neurological disabilities.

Help give the child a fighting chance to avoid these disabilities by supporting the mother in abstaining from alcohol and drugs during her pregnancy. The mother should take only drugs prescribed by a knowledgeable physician who is aware that she is pregnant.
