Yeah, excuses for not drinking are often difficult. Maybe tell your friends that you're on a detox, or make sure your hubby gets all your drinks - dry ginger ale or lime and soda can look alcoholic...

You can still have one or two drinks - even if you are pregnant, the embryo isn't connected to your blood supply until around 10-14 days after conception, but it's always better to be safe rather than sorry.

My best advice is to get your husband or a friend to keep giving you non-alcoholic drinks on the sly. No one will even notice that you're not drinking.
