Can alcohol during pregnancy cause lower nasal bridge in kids?
Patient: My daughter has a low nasal bridge. I drank heavily before I found out I was pregnant which was about 7 weeks and after that I had the occassional glass of red wine which my Dr said was fine. Now I am really worried because she has a low nasal bridge. She is very clever, alert and growing well but could I have done her damage? Doctor: taking alcohol during early pregnancy will cause birth defects and also fetal alcohol syndrome, but in your child,, it may not be due to your alcohol intake because flat nasal bridge is not a birth defects.. if flat nasal bridge along with mental retardation (down syndrome) is caused due to maternal alcohol during pregnancy.flat nasal bridge occurs in many healthy baby also..
