I've also heard of women being told to drink Guinness Stout while breast feeding, to build up their strength..

or else drink one of those "fortifying" wines from the chemist's shop, which were just as ad/good for you ;-D


Do you get the impression this might be a lot of men telling women what to do and what not to do???

But drinking affects a man's sperm quite radically - why aren't they advised to stop drinking? :-|
I've also heard, alcohol can impair a man's performance.

...so says she, who was told by her doctor to drink a pint of Guinness/Stout whilst pregnant, as I was, apparently, 'too small'!

I had put on half a stone whilst working as an ag lab, and was a very muscly seven stone! :-D :-D :-D

:-D :-D :-D

That could mean an awful lot of ladies of our/my advanced age making up for lost time.

Doesn't sound so bad.

A WHO report has suggested that women of child bearing age should not drink alcohol.
That’s an awful lot of years without a drink and isn’t that how quite a few got pregnant anyway..
