my son has adhd and I never drank while I was pregnant. I think adhd and add is more of a gene that is carried in the family. so if you know some one in your family that has adhd or add it could possibley be passed down to your baby if not then you really have nothing to worrie about. but drinking can cause other birth defects a glass of wine a month is supposed to be ok during pregancy at least that was what I was told you should realy take to your doctor. ↑
