How Many of You Have Indulged In...

momof5sept18 · December 2013

How many of you have indulged in wine? Red? White? Other?
Also, was it a special occasion? Or just a craving of yours? Or just becaue you're 21+ and its your body/baby? Just curious(:

I haven't yet but I plan on having some wine with Christmas dinner. Also, I went to a wedding the weekend before I found out I was pregnant and had like 5 glasses of wine. I was 5 weeks at the time. Whoops!

Luna C · December 2013

I said none, but if we're counting the period before we knew than my baby spent about two weeks swimming in sauvigon blanc. (I was on vacation, followed by a blow-out party for Dude's birthday, followed by a business trip with several fancy dinner receptions.)

whoberry · December 2013

I am too paranoid to drink anything. I was considering getting some Fre (the alcohol free wine) for Xmas but it still has a tiny bit of alcohol in it so I will have to think about it.

MaidMarion25 · December 2013

I put never since I've found out we are pregnant, but I might have a red glass of wine at Christmas. But before we found out I was on vacation in San Diego and I had a couple of drinks there, oops!

momof5sept18 · December 2013

I'm going out to dinner the day after my birthday, and I'll be 14wks and I wanted to have a glass of wine possibly while out but I'm nervous. This is my 3rd baby. I had 3 drinks before I knew I was pregnant (like 3wks pregnant), with DS2 I was having a martini when my mom sent me to get a pregnancy test cause she said the flu i was suffering from should of been gone already and so I had my cousin take me to the store to prove my mom wrong when in fact she was right. And with DS1 I was drunk the night he was conceived but never drank during. So I'm debating to have a glass of red wine or not for my birthday.

momof5sept18 · December 2013

In my defense, urgent care had just told me I wasn't pregnant via a blood test so I had the three drinks then 3 weeks later I found out I was in fact pregnant and then I cried for two days because I felt bad about drinking .

MrsRage · December 2013

No drinks for me. That's the one thing I'm absolutely sticking to. I'll have some sparkling juice or something like that for NYE.

ricecakes1216 · December 2013

None. We are having our family gift exchange and "cookie day" we have a fab spiced wine that everyone will be drinking. I really want some but I will probably boil it to get most if the alcohol out.

chaysefaith · December 2013

I have not, but I just left the first tri today. I'm not opposed to it and I'm not normally a wine-o but I'd really love a glass of good wine. I don't think I'll have any though because I'm pretty sure everyone in my life would super hardcore side eye me if I did.

wtfisup · December 2013

Planning to have a small glass at parties; not yet.

babyt614 · December 2013

I haven't yet but do plan to toast in the new year and to toast on our anniversary with the real stuff. I'll do sparkling juice for Christmas like I did at Thanksgiving.

elsa1688 · December 2013

I've had a few sips of SO's here and here. Not opposed to my own baby glass soon though.

ElTrain5 · December 2013

During first tri I had a small glass of red. Since then I've had most of a beer and a glass of red. Thinking about making a nice glass of red on a Friday a weekly ritual. Because science.

binkybabies · December 2013

i said none whatsoever since i didn't even drink wine before i was pregnant... alcohol wrecks me now. i have a drink and i want to go throw up. my husband ends up drinking all my drinks that i order when i order a drink..... not like he's complaining...

tbmadeamistake · December 2013

I had a more mimosa this morning

. I drank here and there with C and she turned out fine. My mom drank, at her doctors behest, a beer a day while pregnant with my sister and I'm sure with the rest of us. I like wine. If I want a small glass, I see no reason why not to. Its not every night and not even a full glass. I grew up with European parents though, so I think I have a more relaxed view of booze in general.

trinise · December 2013

I haven't only because I prefer champagne.....preferably the bottle!!!!

Sareynoo · December 2013

I haven't had any yet but will have half a glass with Christmas Eve dinner or Christmas dinner! I will probably have red.

TrueMyth · December 2013

None yet. I plan on a small glass of wine at Christmas and one of champagne at NYE.

I don't miss it very much. But out for lunch yesterday I had small sip of hubby's beer. It was a yummy winter ale.

This is what I do, take a small sip.. Just enough to taste. My husband brings home a new kind of beer each week and I like to taste the different types.

Carriebear22 · December 2013

Not wine, but I've had a sip or 2 of other friends adult beverages just because I could smell the, and wanted a taste. A sip every now and then isn't going to cause any problems. Never from DH though, he is so scared. He had a hot chocolate with Dr. In it and warned me immediately when I walked in the door not to take a sip because it wasn't safe.. He is a little protective of baby!

A friend sent me this a few weeks ago.

babygabe614 · December 2013

I haven't, but not because I think it is "wrong" if you choose to have a glass here or there. I'm very to each his own on that topic. I just haven't felt the desire to have any at this point. *shrug*

Erica314 · December 2013

My fiance likes to get all the micro sampler packs throughout the holiday season. I've tried drinks of each! Usually that ends up being about 2 sips of beer every couple of days. I've probably had a whole beer's worth by now! haha

I will more than likely have a glass of wine now and then once I get a bit further along, but for now the sips of tasty beer get me through. ;-)

Lynnja616 · December 2013

Sips all the time (well, once or twice a week maybe) of DH's beer. I love beer and I miss it. I would never drink a full one pregnant though, just my personal feeling. I am not comfortable with it and therefore have no desire.

tddampf · December 2013

I haven't simply because I know myself too well to know that one glass will leave me wanting 3 mores so i would rather just go without!

skyview222 · December 2013

None, but I'm still in 1st Tri. I crave it and DH now drinks my share of the bottle which is sort of annoying. I'm not sure what I will do--not sure if my taking blood thinner will change my doc's recommendations either.

eschummer · December 2013

I haven't had any since knowing I was pregnant. But for christmas i will def have a glass or 2. And I also have a holiday party this upcoming weekend that I will have a glass as well

jesus4life2 · December 2013

I never finish even a glass when Im NOT pregnant but I am excited to be having "half a glass now and then" as my midwife recommended while I AM pregnant.

Oh I love red wine.

alliebeecher · December 2013

I haven't wanted any, so it hasn't really come up.

Before I found out I was pg, I had a night out where I had a large cocktail and a few beers. Well, my Ob said there's no point worrying about that. What can you do? But since that did happen, I'll probably skip the occasional glass of wine too.

AnnieJar · December 2013

I'll try a small, partial glass for special occasions now that I'm out of first tri. I've had sips here and there and wine just doesn't taste right so I don't really feel like I'm missing anything. I just hope my taste goes back to normal after baby is here because with three LOs 4 and under momma is going to need a glass of wine (or 3) when things get crazy!

Aholmes22 · December 2013

Nothing yet. Planning on enjoying a glass of champagne on Xmas
