Pregnancy and Alcohol at events?

[willow5]

I'm on anti-biotics and can't have alcohol with them is a good one.
You could be driving and don't trust yourself to stop if you just have one.
Too tired if you have a drink you might fall asleep.

Oh... sorry if it's your wedding you're reffering to you probably wouldn't be driving

You could say you don't want to forget any of your special day so you aren't going to drink anything, or you could get some non-alcoholic champagne for toasting.
I don't know what you wold normally drink but can you fake it? eg just have coke and people assume it's rum&coke etc.

Seeming its your wedding and you will be busy, you can take glasses and strategically keep putting them down places

LOL That was my plan but i think some people might get a little suspcious...i will keep trying it

I was going to suggest you say you are detoxing, but that probably won't be too believable given it's your wedding. I think the picking up and putting down the champagne glass is good advice...

[Doing my best]

You could try telling them that It's been a long day and drinking will just make you want to fall asleep..

To be honest it shouldn't be that hard to do at your wedding!! As I know at mine I was bust getting around to people and chatting and dancing that I kept forgetting where my drink was and in the end I think I had 1 drink at wedding!!!

Good luck and have a blast!!

Yup I agree, you will be so busy socialising with all your guests and your guests with each other that I reckon people won't even notice! Take a drink/top up when it's offered and then float on to the next group, table etc. If you constantly or regularly have a drink in your hand, people just assume you're drinking from it. Get your DH to be to help you out too by deflecting discussions if they move in that area. You can also try drinking water for a while and telling people that you just downed 2 (or three or whatever!!) glasses quite quickly and it's gone to your head so you're having a water before your next drink.

GL hun and enjoy your big day!
