You probably know that alcohol is not good for your health. Among other things, it hinders the development of the brain. Alcohol is therefore especially harmful for babies and children. Yet about 5 to 10 percent of women drink during pregnancy. The mothers may be aware of the risks to their child to some extent, but believe that an occasional drink won’t do much harm, or believe that drinking early in pregnancy is less harmful. Researcher Sylvia Roozen (Maastricht University) is clear about the fact that these thoughts are both big misunderstandings.
