Pregnant women asked to avoid alcohol: should it even be asked?

I find this news a little strange, women should not drink any alcohol in the first three months of their pregnancy, and this report comes from a government watchdog. The thing I do not understand is, I thought that we already knew that pregnant woman should not touch alcohol.

Many believe that drinking in the early stages of pregnancy will give you a higher chance of a miscarriage, however The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence has said that there is limited evidence to support this.

NICE have now issued a new guideline for pregnant woman who wish to drink, and that is to only drink two units once or twice a week.

The thing is should this even be asked, all women who are pregnant have a responsibility to the child that is growing inside them. And if they choose to drink alcohol, then would you say that they are irresponsible.
