A blackout is an amnesia-like period that is often associated with drinking. A person may be functioning normally, but later, the person has no memory of occurrences. During a blackout, an individual can participate in a significant, emotionally charged event but have no recollection of what occurred. When blood alcohol levels rise slowly, people are less likely to experience blackouts, even if they eventually become intoxicated.
Research suggests that all pregnant women should be screened for alcohol use during prenatal visits. Women who are positive for alcohol, or prove to be at-risk, should be identified early by physicians and referred for counseling and treatment.
An average sized adult can eliminate the alcohol that is contained in a regular sized twelve ounce can of beer in a hour; if an individual drinks more alcohol than their body can eliminate, their blood alcohol content level will automatically go up.
Alcohol consumption by an expectant mother may cause fetal alcohol syndrome and pre-term birth complications, which are detrimental to the health and development of neonates.
