Wine

Has anyone else had a glass here or there now that we are well into our 2nd trimester?  

Re: Wine

    I'm SO HAPPY I am not alone. I won't have more than 1 glass once a week and OMG does it make so happy.  

  • i have a half a glass here and there, or a sip of beer since it is Abita Strawberry season.    :)  I feel no guilt.   Some of my friends moms swear by having a beer a day.  HAHAHA.  Don't know if I'd take it that far but their kids are happy, smart and successful, so who knows.

    I know it.  The season started in early February and I literally brought my first six pack home and then found out I was pregnant.  DH was drinking them around me and I wanted to punch him in the face.  Literally.  I have two in the fridge now, and I think I may have half of one when I get home!  It is Friday, after all!

  • I've hardly even sipped any alcohol but not because I am against it. It just makes me feel sick even thinking about it. 
  • I haven't but I might have some wine this weekend!
  • I just got back from Italy and had a glass there. I also taste tested a few at my book club this month.
  • What did your doctors/midwives say about drinking? My midwives said they don't recommend it at all anymore for pregnant women which makes me incredibly sad, I don't know that I agree with it but because they said no it makes me nervous
  • no way, i would feel way too weird going it. it's not that hard to abstain for 9 months from something. *shrug

    This. I love my beer but I can wait. If anything ever happened, whether the alcohol was directly related or not, I'd never forgive myself. It's just not worth it...even though I really want it!

    My doc, who is awesome is totally fine with an occasional drink. She did with both her pregnancies and I did with my previous two. My first child from the words of her teachers is the most articulate in her class...
    You are fine to have a glass of wine or beer!!
  • I did research in medical journals a while back and all the European studies say an occasional drink is fine. There was a big UK study with 11k kids who were tested at 9 months and then 5 years. Mothers who has 1 to 2 drinks of wine a week showed no difference for thier children in all categories measured. I found basically no US studies that were big.

    I'm have one a week and my OB said occasional is fine. In America no doctor is ever going to say it's okay. There is to many lawsuits.
  • I had half a glass last weekend, and it was amazing. I love Bogle!

    I'm the same way. I just don't feel comfortable with it and really don't miss it all that much.

    I've had small amounts here and there, probably not even half a glass.  It tastes soooo good, but it definitely goes to the head quick now :)

  • I miss sipping drinks, but I haven't had any alcohol yet, and I most likely will keep it up throughout the pregnancy. I think I would feel incredibly guilty if I had any.

    This. I'm not a big drinker to begin with so it rly doesn't bother me to go without.

    In the 1st tri, I had a week where I kept having dreams that I would drink, sometimes I just forgot I was pregnant, sometimes I knew I was pregnant, but justified drinking anyway.  My subconcious just wants to get lit, I guess.

    I miss beer and whiskey like you wouldn't believe.

    That being said, I just don't feel comfortable drinking.  I'll have a sip of my DH's beer, but total, I think that's happened 4 or 5 times.  And I'm talking a sip.  It's not worth it to me.  Booze will still be there when this kid comes out, I'm pretty sure.

  • I haven't had any but my grandma swore up and down having sips of beer helped her morning sickness. I have had three days no sickness so hopefully I'm in the clear now.
