Does alcohol affect a baby's intelligence?

Patient's question:

On the day of drinking, cohabiting, will the baby I'm carrying have lower intelligence than a baby born without drinking? Will it seem dumb?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, from the perspective of eugenics, there is a certain impact, but it does not necessarily lead to malformations.
Suggestions: This situation requires strict prenatal examinations. Perform the triple screen test between weeks 14-19 of pregnancy and a 4D ultrasound for prenatal anomaly screening between weeks 22-26. If necessary, undergo amniocentesis and umbilical cord blood analysis between weeks 16-20 to clarify the baby's development inside the womb. It is recommended to keep the baby and undergo regular prenatal check-ups. If any abnormalities are found in the baby, terminate the pregnancy in a timely manner.
