3 BACKGROUND Consuming alcohol during pregnancy is associated with a higher risk of a range of health implications for the foetus. Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD) is an umbrella term for several diagnoses that are all related to prenatal exposure to alcohol. These are: Foetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) Partial Foetal Alcohol Syndrome (PFAS) Alcohol Related Neuro-developmental Disorder (ARND) Alcohol Related Birth Defects (ARBD) There is emerging evidence that any alcohol consumption during pregnancy is linked to the wider range of FASDs listed above. Any alcohol during pregnancy is linked to preventable disabilities such as birth defects, behavioural problems, learning difficulties and growth deficiencies. The Department of Health has published new guidelines for pregnant women in England, Wales and Northern Ireland to be clear that no level of alcohol is safe to drink in pregnancy. The NO THANKS, I m pregnant campaign aims to promote a consistent message that if you are pregnant, no alcohol is the safest choice, and increase understanding of the health risks to the foetus associated with alcohol, to encourage women to avoid alcohol completely during their pregnancy. 3
4 ONE KEY MESSAGE: THE SAFEST CHOICE IS NOT TO DRINK ANY ALCOHOL DURING YOUR PREGNANCY Department of Health have published new guidelines for pregnant women in England, Wales and Northern Ireland to be clear that no level of alcohol is safe to drink in pregnancy. The new guidance says that for women who do drink a small amount, the risk to their baby is likely to be low, but nevertheless, we cannot rule out the risks altogether. In Leeds, there is a commitment to ensure every child has the best start in life. This includes supporting women to make the healthiest choices during pregnancy.

7 NEWS ARTICLE The following news article is available for you to use online and in print: Campaign to promote new guidelines for alcohol during pregnancy Leeds City Council has launched a campaign to promote a consistent message that the safest choice is to not drink any alcohol during pregnancy. National research shows that 22 per cent of pregnant women drink alcohol during their pregnancy. Our local research tells us that most women want to make the best choice for their baby, but feel messages about safe levels of alcohol during pregnancy are unclear and confusing. In January 2016, the Department of Health published new guidelines for pregnant women in England, Wales and Northern Ireland to be clear that no level of alcohol is safe to drink in pregnancy. There is emerging evidence that any alcohol consumption during pregnancy is linked to Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASDs). FASDs are all related to prenatal exposure to alcohol, and include preventable disabilities such as birth defects, behavioural problems, learning difficulties and growth deficiencies. The No thanks, I m pregnant campaign aims to provide clear and consistent information to increase people s understanding of the health risks to the foetus associated with drinking low levels of alcohol, to encourage women to avoid alcohol completely during their pregnancy. The campaign also encourages support from partners, other family members and friends. Lead Specialist Midwife, Alex Whincup, said: Pregnancy can be a complex and challenging time, especially for first time parents, and it s important to acknowledge that they are doing a really good job. We know from talking to lots of local expectant mums that they want what s best for their child, but advice around alcohol in pregnancy is very confusing. There is emerging evidence that any alcohol consumption during pregnancy is linked to preventable disabilities such as birth defects, behavioural problems, learning difficulties and growth deficiencies. So the safest choice is to avoid alcohol completely. We think a lot of mums will welcome this clearer message. Leeds City Council, Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust and Forward Leeds are working in partnership to reduce the number of women drinking alcohol during their pregnancy. The maternity service has provided training to community midwives so that they can speak to women to improve knowledge and awareness of the effects of alcohol use during pregnancy.

Logo with URL THE SAFEST CHOICE IS NOT TO DRINK ANY ALCOHOL DURING YOUR PREGNANCY. Did you know? Alcohol during pregnancy is linked to preventable disabilities such as: birth defects behavioural problems learning difficulties WHAT IS FASD? FASD, Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders is an umbrella term for several diagnoses that are all related to prenatal exposure to alcohol (while a baby is in the womb). These are: Foetal Alcohol Syndrome, FAS Partial Foetal Alcohol Syndrome, PFAS Alcohol Related Neuro-developmental Disorder, ARND Alcohol Related Birth Defects, ARBD Foetal Alcohol Effects, FAE FASD is a series of preventable birth defects caused entirely by a woman drinking alcohol at any time during her pregnancy. Beer, wine, spirits - it s all the same to the developing baby. The term Spectrum is used because each individual with FASD may have some or all of a spectrum of mental and physical challenges. In addition each individual with FASD may have these challenges to a degree or spectrum from mild to very severe. growth deficiencies Common problems include: Vision impairment Sleep problems Heart defects Liver problems Poor immune system Speech & language delays Impulsivity Memory problems Hyperactivity Inappropriate social behaviour These defects of both the brain and the body exist only because of prenatal exposure to alcohol. Often the condition goes undiagnosed, or is misdiagnosed, for example as Autism or ADHD, and this can lead to secondary disabilities. (FASDTrust.co.uk, 2016) Logos available in black, white and full colour Visit us online Go to alcoholandpregnancy.org.uk for: Information on FASD Ideas for non-alcoholic activities Information for partners, families and friends A great selection of mocktail recipes You can speak to your midwife or GP about FASD or any concerns you might have about consuming alcohol during pregnancy.
