How many drinks do you have on average a week? A lot of girls say they will have "one or two" in the 2WW and I am the same way...I guess I'm wondering how many days you will have the "one or two".

I stopped drinking all together after 3 DPO, it made me feel uneasy, so now I'm avoiding, but I usually would have one or two the entire 2ww, not per day.

I don't drink much to begin with. Now that its football season I've been drinking more. I might have 2-3 drinks over the weekend. I very rarely drink during the week.

To be honest, I really dont drink much at all. DH stopped drinking in February, so that has actually influenced my desire for it. As mentioned in previous post, I may have 1-2 drinks the night of the bachelorette party, but more than likely wont drink again through the rest of the 2ww! If AF shows, then I will treat myself to a few margaitas if the opportunity presents itself!
Eh, I just drink like always. I am not a big drinker during the week but if I am at a party or something I'll have a few. Maybe every other month or so I'll get a little more than buzzed. I don't really think about 2ww or not but like I said I don't really drink all that often.
Usually I drink maybe once a month but this week has been unusual - I had to drown my sorrows over the Steeler game on Sunday and we had a party last night.

once in a while I'll have a glass or 2 of wine during the week, but unless I'm out with friends I don't usually drink much. even tailgating on Sundays I only have like 3 beers.
It varies. Sometimes during the week I won't drink at all, other times I have a drink or two a few nights.

I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
You ladies are so good! I definitely need to cut back. None of my friends are TTC or pregnant and they like to go out a lot. I have a "no more than 2 drinks in one night" rule (except when AF comes...then I don't care) but that ends up happening at least twice a week, sometimes more.

You gals make me feel alcoholic! My DH & I are on a bowling league Friday nights. We split three pitchers with the couple that's on our team. So it's about three beers. Sometimes we go out afterwards and have another beer or two. Aside from that I don't drink unless we're at a party or what not. If it's not in the 2ww I'll have as many as I want (depending on who's doing the driving that night). If it's after O in the 2ww then I try to limit it to no more than one drink an hour, no shots.
I'll probably have a glass of wine (sometimes 2) maybe 2 nights during the week. Unless there is an event, like a Red Sox game last Thursday - at which I had 3. During the weekend, usually 3 drinks each night.
Before TTC, I wasn't much of a drinker...Maybe 1-2 glasses of wine once a week (most of the time longer though). Now it's pretty much the same, but during 2ww, I stay away from it altogether. It's easier for me though, because we don't go out much. The hardest part for me was cutting out the artificial sweetner (I miss diet pepsi!!!).

If by "one or two", you mean "four or five", then I do that about twice a week. During my 2WW, I might drink twice that week but will stick mainly to beer which fills me up around the two/three mark.
