Drinking while ttc

[Lilmisshopeful]

Is drinking bad? That's it pretty much lol. I'm going to ovulate in a few days will drinking tonight have any impact on it. Working hard for a good egg this month xxx

I really Lilke 2 know the answer 2 this as well , I always feel guilty in the 2ww just incase I'm preggers.
I have read that if ur trying 4 a baby you should cut down drinking , but after 16 month of ttc it kinda makes me want a glass (or 2) of wine !

They recommend you should avoid/cut down drinking when TTC but not sure how that explains all the accidental pregnancies that happen from drunken one-night stands

I guess if you're long-term TTC, you can't put your life on hold. If it were me I'd drink in moderation where possible but probably still allow myself the odd cheeky little drinkie-poos now and again.

I guess it's each to their own?!

I think it depends what, a little glass of wine shouldnt hurt but i wouldnt go wild on tequila lol u know what i mean. U always hear about these drunken one night stands on jezza! Xxx

 

[Lilmisshopeful]

No going out and getting plastered then lol xxx

I tend to have a bottle of wine a week, spread over 2-3 days, and nothing during the 2ww. I guess it's different for everyone. A friend of mine drank a few days before she found out she was pregnant but didn't really enjoy it. As for me, I just feel guilty if I drink during the 2ww, just incase.

The drunken accidents never cease to amaze me. I can not understand how someone can get pregnant from a drunken night out, not even trying when there's people doing everything they can to conceive.

the reason people say drinking is better not to is cause alcohol can cause a temporary hormonal change but it said alot so im sure if you dont get drunk then should be fine i used to have a small bottle of wine every night (it was my thing when i stopped smoking lol) but when i stopped it completely cause i wasnt ovulating after coming off the pill, i started ovulating might have been a coincidence but who knows but im guessing wine every night would be bad lol ive not had any alcohol in 2 months so i think i will treat my self to 1 glass tonight i say 1 glass they are very big lol xx

Maybe I need to make oh meet me in town get drunk and have a fumble. Job done haha xxx

 

[mylullaby]

Yeah, I agree with the distinction between a glass or two of wine and wild night on the sambucas!

Maybe I need to make oh meet me in town get drunk and have a fumble. Job done haha xxx

Wetherspoons toilets?!

 

[Andreax2]

I might give that ago me and hubby might get wasted!!!

 

[Andreax2]

Il pretend I don't know him lol

 

[mylullaby]

Get wasted and have a role-play one-night stand. You never know...

 

[Outofsync]

I stopped but ltttc and its just not possible lol! I drink all through 2WW as well not loads but the odd glass of wine. It's a lot harder to face af when you have put everything on hold xx

 

[mylullaby]

Given that so many people do manage to conceive healthy babies despite being completely trollied, I think the impact of the occasional glass of wine must be fairly minor.

Relax and enjoy ur night. I know plenty of people who's babies were conceived after a few drinkies. also my mum didn't realise she was preggo with me (aged 38) for months and months, she thought she had a water infection (charming!) and she had a good few Christmas nights out with me in her belly! and im fine I think....! haha xxx

 

[Lou1103]

Lol andrea sounds good! Xxx

 

[Lilmisshopeful]

This egg better wait and let the spermies in as I'm passing on a night out huff lol xxx

 

[lisey]

I really don't think a few drinks will do any harm, like the others said, maybe not a tequila/Sambuca filled eve. I very rarely drink but after 2 years of trying, If I want to have a couple of drinks, I will because I realised I can't put everything on hold and its true, so many babies are conceived from drunken fun so it can't have that much of an impact x

 

[Lilmisshopeful]

It was a drunken night full of sambuca lol so I declined politely xxx
