I drink occasionally before but now that im pregnant i want to completely stop, just finding it a bit hard to cut down suddenly. Feeling guilty about it too. How did you ladies manage to reduce and quit during this time?
If you are struggling to cut down alcohol during pregnancy, please talk to your doctor honestly, there is no judgement and they can help you safely. It really matters for the baby, and you dont have to manage this alone.
The safest path is honestly none at all during pregnancy, and a doctor can guide you on cutting down properly if it is difficult. Please loop in your gynac, this is exactly what they are there for.
I totally understand it can be hard to stop a habit, please be gentle with yourself. The bravest thing is telling your gynac so they can support you. You are already doing right by asking.
