Alcohol free excuses

[Pemsy]

So I’m early days but just had a BFP. I have my birthday coming up in two weeks and my friends have planned an evening out (just at a table outside at a bar down the road from them) but I obviously won’t be drinking.

Just wondering people’s best excuses? I can’t say I’m driving. I did recently have vertigo from an ear infection so I could say it’s falling up again. Any ideas?

You could say you’re on antibiotics?

Yes agree with sock say you've been poorly with some sort of infection and you're on antibiotics that you can't drink with

I went to an engagement party at 4 weeks. I walked around with a glass of coke all night (I normally drink bourban and coke). No one had a clue.

It helped that we got the bar man to make it in a fancy glass so it looked like I was having a real drink.

You should start maybe start complaining now of feeling dodgy..... so they’re prepared for you having been unwell so that the antibiotic story is more believable lol.

I also used the antibiotics excuse but couldn't use it anymore after a few weeks. If we were at a friend's house I would also just get whatever they offered but my oh would drink it instead!
Nobody every suspected a thing and even accused me of drinking while pregnant after we told them!

Yes! Or tell them you have a tooth ache and then say you went to the dentist and they gave you antibiotics.
