It's the tale of two pregnant women, each with a different belief on drinking alcohol while carrying a child.
They were the focus of a piece on Good Morning America that triggered a firestorm of controversy. Why? While one woman chose to give up drinking, the other mother-to-be did not.
The woman, the story says, has the approval of her doctor, and believes that anything in moderation is ok.
Helen Weinstein teaches people in WNY about Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, a disorder brought on by drinking during pregnancy. It's the leading known cause of developmental disabilities in this country, more prevalent than Down Syndrome or Spina Bifida.
Despite years of research showing alcohol can damage a developing baby's brain, there's no clear answer on how much it would take. Still, Weinstein says, it's not worth the risk.
Weinstein says alcohol isn't any different than other drugs, except it's legal, and while some may be challenging its effects, she says not drinking is a small sacrifice an expectant mom can make to protect her unborn child.
