Sod it! I will certainly be having a drink on Christmas Day. I have never had more than 2 in one evening (light beer or SMALL glass of wine) and never more than 3 evenings in a week. I found the best thing to do to stretch it out over the evening is to drink a shandy, half beer, half lemonade and then you can enjoy all evening without having too much.

If you feel bad about it then don't do it but I think it would be fine. I'm sure I even read somewhere that drinking Guiness whilst pregnant is good for you and the baby! That might just be the drunken Irish side of my family though!!!
