While there is not any research to completely prove that a father who drinks prior to conception influences a baby’s likelihood to have FASD, drinking alcohol does affect a man’s sperm which can result in other problems. Drinking can mutate sperm which can lead to birth defects, miscarriages or illness in a baby. Remind men who are trying to start families that while they need to be careful about their own drinking habits and they need to be a solid support system to the women in their lives by advocating abstinence from drinking while trying to start a family or while pregnant.
