Unmasking FASD: A Glimpse into the New Series on Pregnancy and Alcohol
They all agreed to be interviewed because they want the world to know their stories, to understand FASD as well as the perils of mixing pregnancy and alcohol.
Pregnancy is a time filled with joy and anticipation, but it also comes with crucial decisions that can impact a child's entire life. One of the most critical choices is whether to consume alcohol during pregnancy. The second series of 'Pregnancy and Alcohol: The Surprising Reality', hosted by NOFASD Australia, dives deep into this issue, shedding light on the little-known but significant consequences of prenatal alcohol exposure, known as Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD).
This series is not just for expectant mothers but for anyone keen to understand the ripple effects of alcohol consumption during pregnancy. Through heartfelt interviews with doctors, experts, parents, carers, and individuals living with FASD, this podcast offers a comprehensive view of the disorder. The episodes feature compelling personal stories and expert opinions that highlight the importance of awareness and prevention.
One memorable quote from the series is, 'They all agreed to be interviewed because they want the world to know their stories, to understand FASD as well as the perils of mixing pregnancy and alcohol'. This podcast is both informative and inspiring, making it an essential listen for anyone interested in learning more about FASD and how to prevent it.
