Wine and Pregnancy

My mother drank (and smoked) while she was carrying me. In today's world with all the toxins, carcinogens and generally bad things that we are exposed to why is it so bad to enjoy a glass of wine or two when pregnant?

I am sure for every 'expert' that says it is bad for the mother and baby, there will be another that has the opposing view. I feel sorry for all those women who look longingly at a glass in a restaurant when others are having fun and enjoying a drop or two.

I wish I could recommend the ideal wine for expecting mothers but the best I can do is say that I am sure a little bit of something you fancy won't do anyone any harm!
