'We drank during our pregnancies'

Should pregnant women drink alcohol?
There has been a lot of conflicting advice: A new report advises avoiding alcohol completely while expecting - while other research suggests that a small glass of wine every day will not cause harm.
Retired paediatrician Dr Mary Mather co-wrote the report and told the programme the NHS was failing women with confusing guidance.
Ruth Barnes and Deborah Hodges drank during their pregnancies and said they did not believe it had caused damage.
