Alcohol sensitivity

For those who have been pregnant, did you find that you were more sensitive to alcohol (obviously before you had a confirmed BFP)? I had two beers at dinner and and felt drunk. Thats never happened...ever. I know Im trying to grasp at straws right now with pregnancy symptoms but I cant help but wonder. OH...I guess it could be the provera/clomid causing a sensitivity?

    I didn't have any alcohol sensitivity that I can remember but my pregnancy was 9 years ago. I do know that medications aren't usually supposed to be mixed with alcohol, so it's possible that it's from the medications.

    Hopefully everything goes well with the meds and you get a BFP soon! :)

    I am not sure what your situation is.... are you in a 2ww? If so, why are you drinking? If you're not in a 2ww and you just took provera to induce AF, I am not sure.  I drank while on provera and didn't notice any sensitivity.

    Im in my 2ww yes. I only had a couple of drinks. Its not like Im out partying like a rockstar, promise :)

    The provera is used every month for 5 days to bring AF...so its not even in my system anymore. I think I felt the 2 beers so much because my hormones are so out of whack right now.

    I personally don't think that drinking in the 2ww is a big deal.  I was always in the drink til it's pink camp (although now that we are doing IVF, I've stopped drinking just to be on the safe side)

    As far as provera goes, I would look into getting prometrium instead.  It can be used to bring on a period but it's also safe during prengancy just in case.

    Thanks, I will definitely check with my doc about prometrium. The fact that provera is not safe during pregnancy has always been a tad unsettling to me.

    Yoda, I am in the same boat. Also, at the 2ww and I had a beer on Friday and I got very tipsy, which normally it would never have done. I would be interested to know too. I am in the frame of mind that maybe I am just making myself feel a lot of stuff because I just want it to be different. Makes you feel a bit crazy :p!
