Hi,
Welcome to HCM!

Alcoholic drinks and Cocaine are not good for the fetus. But it is not possible to tell as of now whether there was any harmful effect on your fetus.
It can only be said after few weeks when you do your sonography.

Please ensure you never have drinks and drugs again.

Hope your query is solved. Feel free to ask if you have any doubts.
Wish you good health,
With regards,
Dr. Sridhar
