If I'm at a work HH and don't want to get drunk I'll order red wine since you can hold it all night and sip it really slowly without worrying about it getting warm or diluted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-220094 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 09:40:55 +0000 yoursilverlining 220094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before baby, I could easily finish off a bottle myself on the weekends and not have a hangover (could even have a cocktail before + wine and no hangover). During the week, I had 2-3 glasses a night while cooking and with dinner.</p> <p>5 weeks post partum my tolerance is definitely lower! I still like to have a glass of wine most every night...sometimes I'll finish it, sometimes I won't, but I only have 1 glass. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-220082 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 09:36:25 +0000 Alivoo01 220082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-220061 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 09:27:28 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 220061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before baby, I would drink a glass or two with dinner during the week but I would go through a bottle easily if I drank on the weekend. Now, since I'm breastfeeding, I won't drink during the week but I'll sometimes have 3-4 glasses on the weekends (and pay for it the next day) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-220055 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 09:25:24 +0000 BlueWolverine 220055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd say 1-2 glasses with dinner about 3x a week. Our weekly friend get together usually meant about 4 (if we were at our house), and I could kill a bottle on a weekend. Generally not much more than that, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-220046 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 09:22:45 +0000 Rubies 220046@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just a glass. Any other time I only can handle 1/2 of one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-220027 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 09:14:52 +0000 mediagirl 220027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before baby:</p> <p>I would drink 2-3 glasses with dinner (if we're at home). I have been known to blow through a bottle+ and have a massive hangover for it in the morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-220024 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 09:13:51 +0000 PrincessBaby 220024@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pre-preg, I would have 2 glasses a night after work/cooking/eating dinner...On a weekend? I could easily pound a bottle by myself - no hangover. That quote from Ramona on RHNY "My blood type is pinot grigio!" is my line:) Except it's Malbec-lol.</p> <p>I actually thought, due to my Wino-ism, that I would definitely be having a glass of wine here and there during my pregnancy, but I have surprised myself and have had none because I am way too chicken:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-220023 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 09:13:33 +0000 MrsBrewer 220023@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1-1 1/2.....I looove wine but I have never had enough to get drunk off of it. Mainly because I'm allergic to it. DH won't let me have more than 2 glasses, because my allergic reactions tend to get kind of bad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-220010 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 09:07:30 +0000 DillonLion 220010@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't drink very often, so I have a really low tolerance. Two glasses means I'm pretty sloshed, three glasses means people need to prepare for me to get totally inappropriate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219917 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 08:22:30 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 219917@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One glass, maybe two. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219911 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 08:20:28 +0000 mrsjyw 219911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1-2 glasses...

On a weekend or when I know I don't have anything to wake up for, i'll double that. I'm a white wine gal, and it doesn't take much lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219887 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 07:58:14 +0000 LuLu Mom 219887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On a week night I would have a glass, maybe two to relax or with dinner. On a weekend when I had no plans I might finish off a bottle, anything over that gives me a killer headache and no matter how great it taste is not worth a wine hangover...they are the worst! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219886 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 07:58:00 +0000 Mrs. Blue 219886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a 2-glass girl. If I have more than 2, I get a serious red wine headache. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219884 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 07:57:40 +0000 SleepyMonkey 219884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pre pregs, I could finish a bottle plus a glass by myself and depending on what I ate or how much water I drank, would be OK in the morning. Now, not so sure. I have really missed wine this pregnancy though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219881 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 07:53:30 +0000 Minnie_Girl 219881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At the end of our honeymoon in Ireland, when we were renting a cottage for a week, DH and I were sharing a bottle almost every night in front of the fire. Good times. </p> <p>I tried drinking a few cups of caffeinated tea recently, while pregnant, and I felt drunk! I have a feeling my alcohol tolerance is going to be much lower by the time baby arrives... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219879 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 07:49:14 +0000 looch 219879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 max. I haven't ever been able to drink more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219873 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 07:38:14 +0000 Mrs. Cat in the Cradle 219873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably top out at 3 - but normally my husband and I just end up splitting a bottle. Although I'm sure when I can drink again, my tolerance will be very low, so a half glass will be plenty! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219850 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 06:51:38 +0000 Andrea 219850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually 2 glasses. It has been a really long time since I've had a bottle. Lordy, that would be a hangover. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219848 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 06:49:22 +0000 Smurfette 219848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends on the night, mostly I would say a couple glasses. But some nights, a bottle. I usually with people that all drink red and I don't. If we are at a friends house for dinner and end up being there 5 or 6 hours, I can finish a bottle no issue. Mostly cause otherwise it would go to waste, right?? :) But I always make sure to drink lots of water, otherwise the headache is horrible the next day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219843 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 06:43:21 +0000 MamaMoose 219843@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually two glasses. But there has been a night or two where I've finished a bottle alone. When you find a really good wine and you have good company sometimes you just don't want to stop!!</p> <p>@MsLipGloss: I'm also really interested to see how I feel about booze and how I handle it once this nugget gets here. I'm almost 21 weeks and my whole pregnancy I haven't missed alcohol one bit. The thought of taking even a sip makes me sick to my stomach. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219831 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 06:10:02 +0000 MsLipGloss 219831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pre-pg, I could easily drink a bottle all by myself, and be perfectly fine the next day. It will be interesting to see what my tollerance is like at the end of this pregnancy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219779 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 00:36:25 +0000 BSB 219779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I will drink one glass if that's all they have and I feel like drinking wine. I love a good moscoto, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219767 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 00:31:13 +0000 StbHisMrs 219767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually 1 1/2 glasses, i'll max out at 3 unless we're at a party. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219743 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 00:01:52 +0000 skibobrown 219743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Half a bottle. DH and I used to split a bottle over dinner fairly regularly. These days we're big wimps, and I barely ever have more than a glass and a half. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219740 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 23:57:50 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 219740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i can't drink more than 1/2 a glass... i turn bright asian lobster red... from head to toe. not pretty! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219736 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 23:49:13 +0000 mrbee 219736@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsMini: I just drank a bottle on my own... can't remember the last time I did that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219731 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 23:38:56 +0000 MsMini 219731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>On a good night ... a bottle or so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-the-most-wine-youll-drink-in-an-evening#post-219721 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 23:25:03 +0000 lovehoneybee 219721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Late last summer DH and I split 2 bottles of wine, with him having MAYBE 2 glasses and me guzzling the rest like the wino I am (when I'm not KU'd, of course). I was sick before we even went to bed...DH had to carry me out of the bathroom where I'd passed out on the floor with my head on the toilet, and I was in a world of pain the next day, made worse because we had a lunch date with his parents. </p> <p>Please note I almost never drink that much, it was just a very very very good wine (for being a cheap white), I didn't want to stop drinking it, and it was a day or two after my miscarriage. </p> <p>I usually stick to 2 glasses a night, with 3 generally being my max. I'm nice and buzzing and relaxed, but not drunk. </p>
