Great executive lounge and brunch... location not ideal, but 5 min car ride. Only hotel in Rio that has its own private beach

Some very nice suites there. Close enough to Copacabana/Ipanema that it's not worth worrying about.

A little less than ideally-located. Do the JW Marriott or if you can the Copacabana Palace.

Now I missed my period and pregnant. I am panicking a lot, not sure if I want a baby right now. Definitely i cant deal with pregnancy constantly knowing how much u drinking could have affected the fetus and if i could ever endure the consequences it would bring upon the baby
Help me understand if my baby will be fine or not.
