Former Xscape singer Tiny drinking wine while pregnant

Media Take Out has several photos of singer Tiny, who is due with her and fiance' rapper T.I.'s baby girl in June, with a glass of wine at a party. Tiny, formerly of the R & B singing group Xscape, is not seen actually drinking the wine, but the photos imply that the drink is hers. About.com's Pregnancy/Birth Guide, Robin Elise Weiss, LCCE says that according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, a pregnant woman must consider that any alcohol she drinks, her baby is also drinking, This can in turn cause developmental harm to the baby, especially early in the pregnancy when the baby's vital organs are just starting to develop. Although there are several other risks to a unborn baby whose mother drinks alcohol, like low birth rate and decreased attention span, one of the biggest concerns is Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, which is the most common cause of mental reatrdation in babies. Of course other countries reportedly aren't so against a pregnant woman having a glass of wine, particularly in the late stages of her pregnancy. Source: Media Take Out
