    Hi im eighteen years old and i just found out im pregnant.. i took a test today, well four different tests. ALL positive. I had no idea i was because i have abnormal periods but i started to get worried once i hit my second month of not having my period. In the past TWO months a have drank alcohol pretty much every other weekend and i smoked weed once ): WILL THIS HARM THE BABY?? i need to know.

    You should see your doctor as soon as possible. I admitted to my doctor that I drank a glass of wine over Thanksgiving, (not knowing at the time that I was pregnant) and he told me that everything should be perfectly fine, as long as I do not continue to drink. I rarely drink anyway, I only do it on holidays and large family get togethers, (which don't happen very often). But honestly unless you were drinking 3 or more a day the entire time up until you found out you were pregnant, you and the baby should be fine, just check with you doctor.

    I had a few parties and more than a few drinks before I found out I was pregnant and was told that it was early and should be fine- just be honest with your doctor

    You're certainly not the first one to go through this. You really can't do anything about what has already happened. Don't torture yourself. Do your best for your baby from this point forward. Take prenatals and schedule an appt with your OB. Good luck to you and Baby!
