Red Wine Marinade
Red wine marinade while pregnant?
I know that you can not drink wine while pregnant, but while I was over my brother in laws house for dinner, they made steak. After I ate dinner, I asked what they marinated the steak in because I thought it was good. They told me they marinated it in a few things, but one of them was red wine!! I am two months pregnant, and this is my first. Is this a really bad thing, or do you think the wine was cooked off? I ate about five pieces of sliced steak. And please no mean answers, this is a real question, I am just trying to make sure I am doing everything right.
“The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists recently conducted a large study including 400,000 American women, all of whom had consumed alcohol during pregnancy. Not a single case of fetal alcohol syndrome occurred and no adverse effects on children were found when consumption was under 8.5 drinks per week.”

“Some studies go as far as to indicate that light to moderate drinking may actually improve the chance of successful pregnancies. A 1993 study published in the “American Journal of Epidemiology” by Ruth Little and Clarence Weinberg concluded, for example, that there were fewer stillbirths and fewer losses of fetus due to early labor among women who consumed a moderate level of alcohol. That some alcohol can be protective against preterm birth is also supported by Dr. Martha Direnfeld of Haifa University who points out that when used properly, alcohol is known to stop unwanted uterine contractions, and thus has “saved many pregnancies that might otherwise have spontaneously aborted.” More than this, Dr. Robert Sokol of the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse in Detroit has shown that it is light drinkers and not abstainers who have the best chance of having a baby of optimal birth weight and in their book “Alcohol and the Fetus” and Doctors Henry Rosset and Lynn Wiener have presented data that shows that children of moderate drinkers tend to score highest on developmental tests at the age of 18 months.”
