Pregnant after a Loss

Who will ACTUALLY have wine or champagne after delivery?

Maybe not right away, but our hospital gives us a steak and champagne dinner our last night in there, so I'll have some!

Re: Who will ACTUALLY have wine or champagne after delivery?

  • I will have beer.....I'm not much of a wine/champagne drinker. My lactation consultant said that a beer takes 1 hour to not be in breast milk, so I can have a beer every once in while and plan on taking advantage of it.

    As long as I'm not too drugged up, I'm having a glass of wine. It's on my birthplan.

    BFP#1 missed m/c-d&c 10/27/08, BFP#2 BO-natural m/c 5/15/09, BFP#3 8/12/09-DS born 4/2010, BFP#4=TWINS-missed m/c&d/c 6/15/11, BFP#4 11/22/11- please stay with me
  • I will.  My BFF is already planning on bringing DH and I a bottle of wine the day after she is born (Like we did for them).  The 4 of us will enjoy a glass together.
  • DH is bringing me my favorite beer.  I can't wait.  I will also have the celebratory dinner for two, DH and I will have filet mignon and lobster tail as well as champagne too.  And I can't wait for Thanksgiving because I will have the Beaujolais Neavou with my Turkey that my mother in law will either bring to my house if I am home, or to the hosptial if we have to spend one more night.

  • I will right when I get home.  If its offered at the hospital I will have it but I don't think they do.  I will at the hospital have a GIANT dunkin donuts coffee!

  • I will, some of the hospitals here back in the day used to do the dinner and champagne, but I also heard that beer helps let your milk let down. Maybe old wives tale.
  • We bought two nice bottles of champagne during our last trip to Napa with the intent of enjoying one together to celebrate the birth of our first child, we got pregnant a couple weeks later!  We also have some nice bottles of wine from our trip to Tuscany a couple years ago.  DH keeps teasing that he'll open one up now but he knows he'll die if he does, lol. 
  • I;ve been told that in the very early stages of labour when you need to rest the midwife sometimes recommend a glass of wine and a bath so I"m hoping I get that BEFORE delivery!

    Hehe! I should totally tell my DH that he has to bring me an Ahi Tower from Blue Fish for lunch one day, lol! I'm having a c-section, so I know I'll be there a while and won't likely be smuggling in any booze, but an Ahi Tower sounds delish!
  • My BIL bought me a bottle of champagne for my b-day a few weeks ago...I can't wait to drink it!

  • DH and I most definitely will! He brought in a nice bottle of wine to the hospital the night after DD was born that we had with our "nice" dinner. It was so good! (not that I had the whole bottle, but just the glass or two were perfect)
