  I didn't at all with my first pregnancy and I haven't decided with this one. I am not against it at all I'm just a scurrdy cat. There is such a thing as alcohol fetal syndrome but there isn't such a thing sushi syndrome or Dr. Pepper syndrome, so I'll live on the edge with those choices.

  This is me. I didn't have a drop last time (once I found out I was pg at 8 weeks!) but I might not be so strict this time around once I am in the 2nd Tri

  Well, this didn't exactly turn out controversial, ha ha! I had occasional drinks with my first, including one or two during first tri, and I'll do the same this time. I won't have more than one drink in an evening. American diets include junk that I think is much sketchier than an occasional drink. Obviously, if you can't limit it to a single drink, you shouldn't go there.

  haha, I know! I guess I'm glad I'm with a bunch of like minded women here.

  I think it's fine after 1st tri. (about 1 glass a week) I think DH will be encouraging it!

  It is really nice to find such a non-judgemental group of ladies. 

  
  

  I agree with some PPs who said it's hard to have just one glass of wine, so here's my solution — a quarter glass of white wine filled up the rest of the way with sparkling water. Two glasses of that still only equals a half a glass, but it lasts longer.

  I did all of the "right" things the first time and I still had a mc at 11 weeks. I've decided to loosen up a bit for this time. I had a beer tonight actually- I chose the lowest ABV on the menu, which happened to come in a 16 oz instead of a 22oz pour, and I didn't even finish it. I had 2 full glasses of water AND a meal with it. I didn't even feel remotely buzzed- I don't feel guilty in the slightest.

  I wouldn't want to have only one glass, so might as well abstain altogether
