Excuses for not drinking and eating the good stuff?

[TreeTops]

I was thinking of starting just this thread! I have a hens night this weekend. I just know that everyone's going to pick up on it. Isn't it tough that you should eat/drink as if pregnant even if you're not!? I think I'm going to be ~12 DPO then, so in an ideal world I'll get a BFP that morning and it won't be for nothing!

Unfortunately the rumour is out re our TTC, so I might just tell the truth. Alternatively I may go the antibiotics route. I have done that geniunely in the last year anyway. I told the story of a friend who ended up throwing up in the gutter after one ****tail on antibiotics, and that seemed to shut people up. If they ask what the antibiotics are for (so people are so damn nosey!) say you've got a UTI.

I've got a friend who's told me she won't be drinking at the hens night because she's having an op tomorrow for her endometriosis, so I guess you could use that sort of excuse... it's a bit extreme though!

I went to a 30th on the weekend and drove, so that got me past the no drinking questions. When someone came around with a platter of camembert and blue cheese I said on the first occasion "I'll have some in a minute, I've just got a mouthful of something else", and the next "I'm just nipping to the loo".
