Official Trying to Conceive - Thread 13

I'm not really much of a drinker Last time I had a drink was work's Xmas do in December and before that was August. With the last pregnancy I did 'everything right'. Didn't drink, watched what I ate and didn't dye my hair. I then miscarried.

With DD I had been out a fair few times with substantial drinking and my diet was really bad then found out I was pg at 9 weeks. She's turned out fine.

AF is due on Tuesday. I'm going on a planned night out on Saturday that's been arranged since December. I will most definitely be drinking as we're doing one of those cocktail making things. I like to think this is all part of my more relaxed TTC journey. The stress I put myself under last year can't have been healthy and certainly the odd drink can't be that much worse.

You hear so many stories of ladies living life to the full and unknowingly being pg until they give birth. Their babies always seem fine.

Hello ladies, sorry I disappeared for so long. Was feeling pretty disheartened and trying not to think about TTC at all. Anyway, I am now, I think 6dpo so can I please be updated in the lists?

Pretty confident we missed this month, we were both too tired most of the time to BD. But we're going away for a long weekend on Sunday back to the place we got engaged so I'm looking forward to just relaxing and having some time together, and it's completely the wrong time for TTC so I don't need to worry about it the whole time

To join the drinking discussion, I've decided to keep drinking through TTC as I've done a lot of research and it doesn't seem like there's much risk early on. I rarely get too smashed anyway, but DH and I often share a bottle of wine or have a couple of pints, so I've decided to carry this on.

Thanks ladies, you guys are amazing just to hear other people say what I'm thinking! I'm not really much of a drinker so going with alcohol for weeks doesn't bother me but I am a social one so will be good to know I can enjoy myself and have some drinks
