Alcohol consumption in pregnancy

2021-06-27 08:24:55
Hi, My last period was on 11th May. My next period was expected on 11th June but I got to know today that I am pregnant. Since this was not planned and I was not aware that I am pregnant, i consumed alcohol 4 to 5 times during this period in large amount. Will this have any implication on baby's growth or brain or any other complications? Please suggest suitable action.
