The consensus was it shouldn't cause too much of a prob before implantation and its a personal choice.
I've personally decided not to do as I@m such a worrier, its one less thing to worry about. We had friends round during my last 2ww and I discovered that Schloer (fizzy non alco grpae juice) looks exactly like the white wine and lemonade I usually drink, I just made sure nobody was looking when I topped up and nobody was anybody the wiser!

sorry im g/c but just wanted to comment!!
I had a mc and after that I spend 13 months ttc. i did not touch a drop the whole time cos i was so worried about another mc. However it got to the point where ttc was taking over so we decided to toaly relax and just leave things happen in their own time (this was month 13ttc). So we went out a few times with friends and I got drunk three times!! About a week later I found out I was pregnant. Obviously i didnt touch a drop throughout the rest of my pregnancy but I just wanted to reassure you that my dd was born perfectly healthy so drinking during my 2ww did her no harm
good luck ttc

Sxx.
p.s we are ttc no.2 now.
With my first pregnancy (a nice surprise finding out at 7 weeks gone) I had quite a lot to drink the week before at a wedding and worried myself sick about it. I obviously didn't drink for the rest of the pregnancy and baby was perfect.
I'm sure a moderation in the 2ww is the key to keeping your sanity!xx
