"Drinking alcohol early in pregnancy, even in small amounts, increases the risk of harming your baby," reports The Independent, one of several news outlets to report on the latest study on the risks of drinking during pregnancy.
The study of 1,303 pregnant women aged between 18 and 45 years old found that women who drank less than two units a week during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy were at increased risk of complications, including premature birth.
While the risk at the individual level is still low, researchers from the University of Leeds concluded that the first trimester was the most "vulnerable period" of a woman's pregnancy.
