Craving beer and wine! lol

JillEBeenz · December 2012

I have seriously been craving the taste of beer and wine. At the holidays, everyone was drinking glasses of wine and just the smell was like yummmm. I made some decaf coffee to have my own thing. When I'm not pregnant, I drink maybe one or two drinks a week, so I'm by no means a big drinker. Anyone else getting these cravings?

When the craving hits I drink an O'Doul's a non-alchoholic beer, it curbs my craving.

Oh yes! I LOVE beer. Football season was really difficult. Sad

Now with the holidays, I'm back to really wanting to have a few drinks and live it up. Oh well...it will have to wait. But I am a bit bitter as well! I won't even get to spend New Year's Eve with my DH because he will be working (at a bar). And to top it off, New Year's Day is his birthday, so needless to say we usually do it up on NYE and get a cab. Looks like we're past that phase now...lol.

I'm the opposite! I'm a HUGE wine drinker, and it has not sounded good to me AT ALL so far throughout this pregnancy. I thought I'd be one of the types of pregnant women who has an occasional glass of wine, but I haven't even bothered. I was so excited on Christmas day to allow myself a small glass of red wine with dinner, I had one sip and couldn't do it. It just tasted terrible.

So no, I haven't been craving it... and man, do I miss the ACT of having a warm glass of red wine on a cold MN night.

I'm craving sushi like nobody's business, however -- the raw stuff -- and that was the one thing my doc said I probably shouldn't eat (she wasn't concerned about deli meat or anything like that).

Haha, honestly, the whole reason my weight gain has probably been so minimal is because I'm no longer glugging back 2 bottles of wine a week.

Yes over the holidays my sister in laws chilled glass of white wine kept making my mouh water and last night we were oit eith friends for wings and all I wanted was the frosty 32 oz beer sitting in the seat next to me :

I really really want a margarita. A big one.

Yep. Absolutely am craving beer & wine. Cracks DH up, because he thought he'd be all sweet & supportive and NOT drink while I'm pregnant, and I'm actually ASKING him to order a beer all the time so I can have a little sip here or there. So far, I've probably not even had the equivalent of half a drink throughout the whole pregnancy, but the little sip once or twice a week has helped me not feel totally deprived & whiney.

Totally! Not helping that with the holidays, family in town, cold weather, and cozy nights in by the fire is the perfect setting for a nice glass of wine! I had an O Douls last night, not quite the wine I was looking forward too, but at least satisfied that beer craving. I tell myself I can look forward to a nice summery beer on the deck when the weather warms up, after LO is here!

You are not alone.....

When I was pregnant with DS all I wanted was a cold beer so after I delivered DS I sent DH out for pizza and beer, it was heavenly. With DD all I wanted was a glass of red wine so I packed a half bottle in my bag and after she arrived DH and I each had a glass. With this DD I am again craving red wine so once again I will be packing a half bottle in my bag. My OB was teasing me at my last visit about what I will be packing with this LO!

I have really been wanting to drink the last few weeks. I think it has to do with not being able to. Wanting what you can't have! I will have a sip, though.
