Wine

thatgirl84

Anyone get an OK from their OB to have wine in moderation? I always thought pre-pg that it would be ok during the third trimester, but now I'm not so sure. I've gone without caffeine and, of course, alcohol :P

I really cannot wait until I can have a rockstar, and a margarita (not at the same time).

yep. I had a glass two nights ago.

I got the ok from my OB to have wine...a glass a day if I wanted. But I personally think that wine is disgusting, and would rather wait so that I can have something that is a bit more appetizing...lol. I've only ever had one glass of wine, and it made me want to puke. I've heard that wine is good for your blood flow...and if it's in moderation is shouldn't hurt the baby...if you want a glass go for it. But I would limit it to one.

My MW said it's fine as long as I'm not drinking the whole bottle, lol. Enjoy!

I think many people have the occasional glass of wine throughout their pregnancy.  I haven't yet but I plan to have a glass for our anniversary in May.  There are also alot of people who have caffiene throughout their pregnancy.  I think you're supposed to stay under 200mg.  I started having coffee in my second trimester.

My OB said that 2 cups of coffee a day are fine.  I've been drinking one a day.

I've also had maybe a total of 3 glasses of wine since the start of the 2nd tri.The OB said it was also fine to have a glass not and then.

I've been treating myself to either a glass of Moscato D'Asti or Scuppernong once a week ever since I hit 3rd trimester. And let me just tell you, that one glass is the highlight of my week! And now that Doctor Who is back, I enjoy the two hand in hand

AMEN! lol. As to the wine... I've had a couple of small glasses since I hit 20 weeks,... just for special occasions and stuff. Baby is doing great!

I had a glass yesterday evening and will probably have a glass of champagne/mimosa at my shower on Saturday.  I sip it and enjoy it slowly so it's not all introduced into my bloodstream at once.   I hear ya on the margarita...can't wait to have a nice big frosty one!  Although, then it will be timed with when I've last nursed or if I'll need to pump and dump!  :P

I haven't. My DH is petrified that if even a drop of alcohol reaches my system something will go terribly wrong. I keep telling him he's over-reacting but I figure if its really that big of a deal to him then I can just suck it up for another 6 1/2 weeks.

I was JUST telling my Mom how much I miss my Red Bull. Just thinking about it makes me want one right now!
