Just found out!

[:loveher:]

So....I just found out I'm about 6 weeks pregnant!  I had no idea.  I have been so caught up in work and my busy life that I didn't even realize that I had missed my period.  Ugh.  Anyways, last weekend I had my work Christmas party and I had a couple drinks.  Damn.  It's going to be ok right?  I have a 3 1/2 year old little girl already and don't remember having to have this conversation so I am just checking on what others think.  

Any input to calm my already forming nerves?!?

Thanks ladies!

You'll be fine.  Happens all the time I'm sure - just be nice and healthy from now on!  Especially make sure you start taking folic acid and/or prenatals - now is the most important time for this as far as the foetus and development is concerned.  Congratulations and good luck!

Yep, don't worry about it.  Alcohol is a bigger problem when consumed regularly.  As PP said check your folic acid intake and general healthy eating etc. and don't stress about the part.

Congrats!

Don't worry about it. I drank like a fish the first three weeks after my period since it was Thanksgiving and I was staying with my parents (which was seriously crazy making) and slammed down an embarassing amount of margaritas three days before I found out I was pregnant. Whoops. Baby's fine, though. It happens, don't beat yourself up!

you're baby will be fine!  the only time i was close to drunk in the past several years was a week before i found out i was pregnant with dd.  it was a worry in the back of my mind throughout the pregnancy even though i knew that it is regular consumption of alcohol that can cause problems but she's fine.  

congrats :)
