I am being neurotic!

[shirlls]

I am 8 weeks pregnant with twins and when was at a party last night, I ate a large chocolate truffle which I thought was a normal chocolate truffle but afterwards I noticed a strong alcoholic taste in my mouth. I asked what was in them and it turns out they were baileys truffles and the girl who made them and poured loads into the mixture when baking.

I am now worrying myself silly about it, even though I know there are lots of women who do drink when pregnant and are fine, but I am so particular about not touching alcohol, etc.

I know I am being neurotic but I am panicking I have damaged the babies by eating something with lots of baileys in it

I wouldn't panic. With my first I did not know i was pregnant and it was a friends leaving do.i had a fair bit of alcohol. DD is completely fine so a little teeny bit in a choc I'm sure will be fine. The only reason government stipulates zero is be a use they think it's easier to say zero than give an acceptable quantity then ppl thinking 'just a little more'. Some country do suggest that wine etc is good

This one was planned so I'm deliberately on a zero alcohol policy from the outset but I may have a little towards the end with a meal (being Christmas parties etc)

Also if its been cooked the alcohol gets cooked out I wouldn't worry hun.

I definitly wouldn't worry, although I totally understand why you are

But if she cooked it then yes the alcohol wouldn't be actual alcohol anymore, try and relax I'm pretty sure those babies are just fine in there
