Be With Child Without Alcohol

Manitoba Liquor and Lotteries is committed to the safe, healthy and responsible use of alcohol. We believe people should be able to enjoy beverage alcohol products but not at the expense of anyone’s health and well-being.

Be With Child Without Alcohol was developed to provide women and the villages in their lives with information about alcohol use during pregnancy to help them prevent alcohol-related disabilities like Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. Together we can help prevent FASD.

Most things we hear about pregnancy are old wives' tales, passed along through generations – things about natural glows, pickle-and-ice-cream cravings and high-positioned babies all being girls.

Some people also say drinking alcohol while pregnant can’t hurt a baby’s future.

But the truth is there is no known safe amount of alcohol for pregnant women – and that’s why it is so important for you to be informed about how you or a pregnant woman you know can Be With Child Without Alcohol.

This site and the resources within it are designed to help illustrate the relationship between alcohol and pregnancy and the best way to prevent alcohol-related disabilities.

After all, when pregnant or planning a pregnancy, no alcohol is best.
