I agree... I just didnt want to be the one to say it.

Nope, I wont be getting defensive as I honestly dont think I have anything to deend. I eat well, I dont smoke, I dont have caffine and occassionally I have a small glass of wine.

I ahrdly think a few glasses over a few moths makes me an alcoholic! If there was evidence that such a small amount was harmful and I still chose to drink...then maybe I would be being selfish but im afraid as is so often the case, we will have to agree to disagree

To me i wouldnt feel 'right' with a drink in my hand knowing my baby is growing in me.
Plus, i dont get any satisfaction out of a single glass of wine or any drink for that matter.

Why bother?! Not like you can get drunk and you sertainly wont benefit nither will LO

but its your decision at the end of the day
