but...now I feel guilty! Should I??? Tonight will be my first dose of clomid and I always drink a few on New Years. I had a bad day today and just wanted to come home and relax...hang out with DH and our furbabies and drink a few...but now I am second guessing the drinking. Thoughts?

You are fine to indulge. There is nothing out there saying alcohol and clomid aren't okay. Enjoy yourself with your fur babies, DH, and ring in the new year. I KNOW it will be better than the last one!!! Cheers!!!

Don't feel guilty! Enjoy! And, FWIW, my RE would tell you to relax and have a drink or two as well. (I asked her about it when my birthday fell on a trigger day, and she said to have one for her, too!)
Happy New Year!

I have had a bottle of wine so my advice is under the influence but I say fvuck it! you have not ovulated yet and there is nothing on pkg that says don't drink on it!
I haven't touched a drop since our workup in June and tonight I said screw it! I'm on a break cycle and its New Years so I'm having me some wine.
Don't feel bad at all. It's not like having a few at this point is going to hurt. We need to keep our sanity too. Happy New Year!

There's no medical reason why you can't have a beer. For sanity's sake, have a couple every now and then
