So I am between O and the date for my cycle to start. Should I stay away from ALL alcohol or could I have a drink or two. Like wine or something. We have not announced to the world we are trying and meeting up with SIL Frdiay night for her birthday. I am still so clueless!

    I am no expert nor am I TTC but I had 2 friends get pregnant unexpectedly on birth control and both drank during the 2ww.   I am sure it is fine in moderation.

    Good luck!  Hope to hear some good news soon, Diana! :)

    You don't share blood with the baby until somewhere around 7 weeks a long.

    I agree w/ Krista.  I am no expert on TTC (I never charted or anything like that) but I drank plenty of times before even knowing I was pregnant and everything is fine.  I'm sure if you have 1-2 drinks it will be fine.  Good luck to you!

    I'm filing this info under might come in handy somewhere down the line. Enjoy the drinks and good luck with TTC.

    Kapow-I just noticed your ticker. Congrats!

     

    I'm pretty sure it's pronounced your mom's a moron and if you didn't have your name legally changed by the age of 22, so are you. Unless you're from another continent. -Groomz

    I think a drink or two can't hurt.

    I drank up until my BFP. Think about all the people that get pregnant when they're drunk!

    It's fine! 

     

    I didn't realize so many ladies were pregnant on here.  The time flies by!  The babies will be here in no time!
