I was underweight, drinking heavily nightly (at least a bottle of wine), taking occasional prescription painkillers, smoked cigarettes and did cocaine a couple times before I found out I was 2 months pregnant.
I had just stopped taking the pill and had what I thought was a period - turns out it was implantation bleeding. I was absolutely sick and horrified, thinking of the harm I could have done to my unborn child.
Of course, I stopped all bad behavior immediately, started prenatal vitamins and eating as healthy as possible.
I was nervous but, I now have a perfectly healthy, intelligent & funny 2-year old son (who by the way was over 9 lbs at birth!). Good luck & best wishes!
