christmas drinking
Hi ladies, just wondered how you are all going to get round drinking much at christmas? i'm not a big drinker anyway so it shouldn't be too obvious but i've got my work do on thurs and i will be 9 dpo and i'm not sure how to get round the drinking issue without people getting suspicious!

If you tend to drink spirits maybe just get a small glass of the mixer with ice, a slice and a straw? If you like pints get Kaliber. Wine is a bit trickier! Just make sure you avoid rounds and go solo to the bar!
Anyway, you can have one or two quite safely so just drink slowly!
I dunno but I hope something there helps.......
Have fun! xx
Sorry to ramble on but I hope that kinda makes sense. I hope nobody thinks that's irresponsible but where I live and where I work aren't where I really want to be but are all 'just until we have a baby' so I feel like I'm just waiting..... That can get you down when things aren't happening so I feel it's important for me to have some fun and let go now and again. Does that make sense?

I dont want to put my life on hold but as soon as I do get the BFP all drinking, eating crap etc will stop xx
The month I got my BFP we kind of gave up ttc as we were told we would need IVF. We ate and drank what we wanted (which turns out was quite a lot as we were on hols!). Just thought I'd share and say there really is no science to this malarkey!
Happy Xmas!

The month I got my BFP I had also relaxed on the no drinking policy as we were about to be referred for IVF.
The night before I tested I had far too much as I was so convinced I was not pregnant. I was gobsmacked the next day when I finally plucked up courage to test. As Kayecee says theres not much science to this TTC stuff.
If you really want to cut back on booze, the website NoLo has a fab range of non alcoholic wines and other drinks which are far nicer than the average ones. It will be my lifesaver this Christmas.
