Pregnancy, Alcohol and FASD: The Surprising Reality

by NOFASD Australia

How much do you know about pregnancy and alcohol? The reality may surprise you. Alcohol exposure while in the womb may cause Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder, or FASD, in the unborn child. It is more common than many people realise. It may lead to lifelong physical and developmental impairments. For such an impactful disorder, it is rarely spoken about in the popular media. This podcast will take the listener behind the scenes to chat with the people who understand FASD the most and to find out more about this surprising reality.
