    I love beer. Before pregnancy all I drank was coffee, beer and water. Obviously that's had to change but my plan was to drink a small bit of coffee or beer throughout. Bebe had another plan. Beer and coffee taste awful to me now. I've tried sips of my husband's beverages here and there and just can't stand them.
    Anyone else have this happen to them? I sure hope my tastes return to normal after baby!

    1st trimester I had a very strong aversion to coffee; it's normal, and it will likely ease up as you get further into pregnancy :)

    ETA: To OP and other respondents, I agree with the consensus that light/occasional drinking is perfectly acceptable; while I abstained during my 1st trimester (save for a few sips of DH's drinks), I now have about 1 or 2 half glasses of wine a week. I'm much more worried about baby being harmed by every day living than by an occasional glass of wine (car accidents, falls, other unexpected events).
  • Just wanted to come back and say that I tried the Buckler's with orange slices as recommended by the linked post and it wasn't bad! I didn't care for the NA beer in my last pregnancy and this was a nice surprise.

  • I really like O'douls, especially the Amber! It makes me happy to have a little beverage treat in the evenings.
