Make up your minds!!!!

 

[Suzie and Faith]

They do keep changing their minds! I had the odd glass of wine after the 1st tri. And on my due date I had 2 glasses... LOL.

 

[emmie]

I have been having the odd 1/4 glass of cider and the rest topped up with lemonade its sooooo nice makes the alcohol craving go away for a bit.

 

[Sarah&Braydon]

i had small shandys wen pregnant, on my 18th i was 36 weeks pg and had a sip of champagne lol

 

[rach]

they change their minds like the weather lol xxxxxxx

 

[krissie23]

Yeah they do!

I've had one glass of wine so far, at my sister's birthday a few weeks ago, and I was over 12 weeks by then. Most weekends OH & I would share a bottle of red between us on a friday or saturday night, but it hasn't bothered me at all not being able to drink now. I dare say I'll treat myself to a glass on christmas day & probably New Year's, seeing as it's also my birthday!

 

[ninjawomble]

I like the way they wait till the end of my pregnancy to tell me this

 

[Petra]

I have been crawing beer really badly.. maybe I could have a small glass tonight ( if DH allows

You are right they need to make up their minds! I cant say id drink anyway (just incase).. i dont really miss it that much to be honest. Now if it was chocolate, that would be another story!!

Im the same lol! I dont drink because I dont want to rather than them telling me not too! But they are so annoying arent they?!?!

 

[CH0C0H0LIC]

I don't need to be told twice..... I've just sent my OH up to Tescos for a can of Guinness!!!!!

I've also hinted about buying me some chocolate... could be my lucky day!!!!!

[kmac]

i'm in 2 minds.... I would lOVE a little glass of chilled white wine....drool
but I think I would feel guilty and it would go right to my head.
I have had the odd sip of DH's beer throughout being pregnant and i had one massive craving for wine so had a wine and soda a while ago.....
I'll probably not bother though... bump is having a sleepy day as it is!

 

[Julie84]

I also haven't drunk anything because I haven't fancied it (in fact I hadn't had anything to drink in the 3 months prior to conception either!) rather than because I'm told not to.

 

[EllieBelle]

I have had a couple of very weak spritzers, a glass of bucks fizz and also recently discovered that Tesco do a VERY low alcohol cider - never drunk cider before but been craving it, and this one only has 0.3% alcohol in it, so must admit to having one a week as my Fri night treat, Sainsburys also do one but theirs has slightly more alcohol about 0.7%

Becks and Cobra both do a NON alcoholic lager which tastes great and is absolutely fine to drink anytime!

Im not a big drinker normally but had a serious craving for cider filled with crushed ice.......!!

 

[charlotte_]

i still won't drink, i was so paranoid about the ridiculous amount of drinking i did before i found out i was PG at 6 weeks, that i swore i wouldn't have anything else! it's not bothered me at all, and i know if i did have one i'd only want another!

 

[widowwadman]

Well, I've been drinking a Shandy or Spritzer once in a while as both my GP my midwife said it would be perfectly ok as long as I don't get completely trolleyed!

 

[ninjawomble]

Ive craved red wine all the way through, even if someone is next to me drinking it Ive wanted to snatch it off them!
I could of had the odd half glass!! Grrrrrrrr I say!!!

 

[Baby&i]

Iv craved mussels and white wine sauce last week, but didnt have it as i was worried about eating mussels, not so much the sauce haha!
With DD i didnt touch alcohol untill my Due date as it was my birthday. i had a small glass of white wine, i actually enjoyed smelling it more than drinking it though.
i think that they preassure you into thinking your the worse parent if you dont do what they say, dont touch this, dont touch that, eat this because its best for growing baby.. then the next second they have done another survay that changes their minds and suddenly this food/drink they said is good for baby is to avoid..
i really dont take everything too serious what they tell you (just use my common sense) aslong as you have a good diet, dont smoke, dont do drugs and dont get silly with the alcohol business, one glass in 9 months isnt going to be a huge issue although i dont really drink anyway and i didnt while TTC either. x

 

[Naterjack]

Ive had the odd drink throughout, once or twice a week - but not a glass of wine more like a glass of low alcohol cider
Helps me cheer up on a Friday

 

[AliCat]

I've had very small qunatities of alcohol, a shandy or half a lager or a small glass of white wine. I drank a hell of a lot before I was pregnant and had hammered the drink the week I found out too as it was my hubby's birthday - felt so bad about that, but the early scan revealed no problems thankfully.
I am starting to crave a good glass of white wine though, but must wait til baby's born. Not long to go I hope.
