Drink Till It's Pink???

Question

Who agrees with this?
Do you drink during the TWW?
Currently in the TWW, and my anxiety is feeling high tonight. Wanting to have a drink or two to take the edge off but feeling guilty drinking when I don't know if I've conceived or not. 
What are your thoughts on this?

Answer

Drink till its pink. You aren't even technically pregnant during the TWW so theres no reason not to drink.

Answer

Absolutely have that drink- it is not going to impact a thing!

Answer

Drinking will NOT prevent implantation! Secondly, if you ended up pregnant this cycle, it's an embryo until 6 weeks... no nutrients are being passed to the embryo. Only at 6 weeks once the placenta is formed and it turns into a fetus will nutrients pass to the fetus. There is zero risk!!!

Answer

Not a great idea. I don’t judge anyone who has had a drink when they didn’t know they were pregnant, but you certainly shouldn’t be drinking when you’re intentionally ttc. I’m a medical professional and very well aware of many children I have treated who have FAS (fetal alcohol syndrome) whose moms report only having one glass of wine or a very insignificant amount of alcohol before they even knew they were pregnant. Feel free to have a drink (it’s obviously your decision), but be aware of the risks.

Answer

When I’m presented with this situation, I drink only because I hate to put more pressure on a situation I’m already anxious on. Like I feel guilty for drinking but in my head I don’t want to get my hopes up that I’ll have a BFP and then I feel silly for not drinking because instead I get a BFN lol idk if that makes sense!
Also, last month because of some Christmas parties with family, it would’ve seemed odd for me not to have a glass of wine with my cousins and I didn’t want to bring attention to me not drinking!
Personally, I think it’s fine. Until you get a BFP and you honestly don’t know you are pregnant, who is anyone to judge!

Answer

I’ve done it, but generally try to avoid. It’s up to you. Obviously best to just avoid.
