The trouble is that the reason there is no causal evidence - as opposed to correlational evidence which we have in spades - is that to get that causal evidence you would need to perform experiments which are by any measure utterly monstrous. No were in the world would anyone sanction an experiment so purposefully introduce varying levels of alcohol into an unborn baby.

So the sensible public health decision is to advise no alcohol during pregnancy.

Broadly speaking thats where i stand, i mean for the most part. The current advice isn't No alcohol, its to consume only a tiny quantity of it, which they are working on the assumption will be fine. Its still a risk, but the people working the data deem it an insignificant risk, which I have no choice but to tale them at their word, they are working with facts that I don't have. What I refuse to take at its word is the idea that the facts we have ain't solid enough to justify health advice, and never will be, so we should discard any health advice that makes people feel bad.
