I agree with you

That certainly wasn't a "little" or "moderation."

yeah kenny was shocked at how much she drank

[Yertos]

Well my scumbag Lee certainly thinks she was, almost told Omid in that scene. Come to think of it shouldn't he have smelled the Whiskey on her after? Whiskey certainly is one of the stronger smelling liquors.

i think he may have smelled it and she lied about it, cause you can ask her later if she is ok cause of the thing that happened in the attic and Omid sort of sounded annoyed when he asked what thing.

so maybe he mentioned the smell and christa just said it must be kenny cause he had some (or whatever they said)

Doubt that much alcohol would have that much of an adverse effect on the fetus, perhaps none at all.

Omid: "We're capable."
Lee: "You sure about that? Cause it seems like you and your girlfriend might have different ideas."
Christa: "Lee!"
Omid: "What's he talking about?"
Christa: "Nothing nevermind."

Pretty sure Lee is talking about when Christa chugged back the whiskey, at first I didn't think much of it but what if she really was trying to harm or kill the baby, despite Omid's intentions? Lee might be implying Christa doesn't want a family.

That conversation happened before she chugged the alcohol, no?

Supposedly ok according to whom? To my knowledge they have no idea what level of alcohol intake is "safe" vs how much it takes to cause harm (seriously how could they ethically perform a study for that). Intake of drugs or alcohol at any point during pregnancy is a gamble at best.

What if it was a single line of cocaine, or one hit off of a crack pipe? Would you still say it's not that much, I'm sure the baby will be fine? I don't want to get to serious (it's a game after all) but there is no way of knowing how much is safe.

[CarScar]

It seemed like she drank the alcohol because Kenny gave her a suspicious look. It seems like she still doesn't want people to know that she is pregnant.

It's kind of interesting how Christa supposedly still wanted to keep the fact that she was "walking for two" a secret. Does she still not completely trust the group? Or is it something she just doesn't want to worry others with. Perhaps she just doesn't want to be treated differently.

Also trust me, that much alcohol wont have much of an adverse effect on the pregnancy, if any at all.

No offense, but what are your credentials?

Christa drank maybe three units of alcohol, perhaps less. Although it's recommended a pregnant lady should not consume more than two units of alcohol, assuming this is the only time she will drink again (until after the pregnancy) it shouldn't be a risk.

Although, I suppose, if she's only been pregnant for less than three months her drinking may actually be a danger to the baby's well-being. Chances are it wont be though.

a shot of whiskey is about 1 unit of alcohol she chugged like a whole glass, defiantly more than 2 units consumed

See, that's all I'm saying. Nobody knows for a certainty if it's safe or dangerous. I'm not saying it will absolutely cause harm, but nobody can say that it absolutely won't. To me it isn't worth the risk.

Probably, I still don't think it wasn't enough to cause any complications. Although it isn't definite I think it was like 2.8 units of alcohol.

I agree completely, it wasn't worth the risk. It would be preferable for a pregnant lady to just not drink at all. Regardless it probably wont cause any complications with the pregnancy.

WTF where did you get 2.8 units from i think it was 1 million units

anyway, she crossed a line when she chugged whiskey and was pregnant, it's whether she was thinking about that or not at the time is what is the issue i think

[Eric Northman]

Wow, we really love to over analyze things around here, don't we

2.8 is like a pint of cider, I don't know I mostly pulled it out of my ass. And yeah she did cross the line, she just didn't want people to know she's pregnant. For whatever reason. I mean she already made it super obvious but whatever Christa, do whatever you want.

You haven't seen anything yet!

Yeah... we could make find out the whole season 2 plot if TT gave us the achievements and some lines of dialogue

Well im not trying to throw a wrench in anybody's post here and im by no means a doctor. But what i wanted to say was when i was in highschool i knew a girl who had become pregnant and not only did she drink but she also smoked on a regular basis (We were not really friends). Surprisingly she had a perfect happy healthy baby. I guess my point is the "harm" it does on a baby really varies from women to women, or maybe baby to baby. And lets not forget it wasnt that long ago (30s and 40s) that nearly everyone, man and women, drank and smoke regardless of pregnancy's. And hell, thats the great generation.

[Alex1939]

So some of you think no pregnant woman has had more than 3 drinks in one night and had a healthy child?

In all of history?


Obviously she shouldn't drink that much whiskey at once like that and it is not good. But to suggest doing that once means "OMG SHE Was trying to kill the baby!" is waaaay overboard. imo. As someone without a child. I mean, it is a zombie apocalypse ffs.

The damage isn't always immediately obvious at birth. There may be trouble down the road that she just hasn't seen yet. Is it possible that her baby will be completely health? Thankfully, yes. That is far from certain though, that is why it's not worth the risk.
