Alex McCords Tips-to Tipsy Parenting…
April 5th, 2010

Real Housewife of New York, Alex McCord is known best on her show for her off-the-wall style, quirky husband, and unusual take to parenting.
In her new book, the mother of two admits to giving into her cravings during her pregnancy.
“Throughout my pregnancy, I gave into every craving I felt,” she writes in Little Kids Big City: Tales From a Real House in New York City, in an excerpt published in the The New York Daily News. “When I wanted to have a drink, I did.”
In fact, Alex wanted a drink on the night she went into labor with her son, Francois, so… she sipped on champagne while Simon drove her to the hospital.
Hmm, no wonder Francois is a little out-of-control. Kids got a perma-buzz!
Additionally, in the parenting book co-authored by her hubby, the couple admits to taking their son Johan, then just 48 hours old, to Manhattan hotspot Mercer Kitchen so they could indulge in cocktails!
They don’t always bring the babies to the bar though. “We’re very lucky that we’re able to pay our nanny extra for two evenings a week to go out,” Alex writes.
Yeeesh! These two nut jobs should NOT be writing a book about parenting! Especially one where they admit to exposing both their born and unborn children to the effects of alcohol.
