Nope. It gives me migraines. And DH has crohns so he can't drink either. We sure do belong together
My ex drank and it bothered me so I knew I didn't want my husband to drink.

@mrsaudi: hahah I get sleepy after alcohol too! Especially liqour. I'm usually a beer here or there kinda gal. Every once in a long while I'll have a 7&7. And yes love those strawberry margaritas in the summer!

My husband works for a brewery and we get the product for free, so we always have beer in our fridge. Our guests drink more of it that we do. I have a beer with dinner maybe once a week. My husband usually has one while watching football games on Saturdays.

@Leialou: how awesome! Which brewery? Once things settle down I want to get my husband started in the brewery business. He's a huge microbrew fan.
What does your husband do?

Yes, we both drink (well not when I'm pregnant of course.) I enjoy beer and wine and an occasional Captian Morgan but only 1-2 time a month.
DH drinks more than I do, but I made him cut back significantly when we got together because he used to drink to get drunk & I thought that was something that needed to be left in college not a 30 year old man! I refused to be with someone who couldn't control his alcohol after dealing with an ex-boyfriend with a drinking problem.

@regberadaisy: He works for one of the largest brewing companies (the one that seems to sponsor everything sports related). He has an engineering degree and has worked in several different areas of the brewery. Currently he is a supervisor in the maintenance department. He really enjoys that area because he gets to use his mechanical engineering background moreso than in any other position. Ultimately he would like to work on the brewing side though.

occasionally. not as much now that we try not to keep it in the house since DH has a tendency to go overboard =/

We drink socially. We rarely ever drink at home during the week unless it's a special occasion. But if we're out with friends on the weekend we'll have a couple of drinks. I went to college in New Orleans and can't handle my hangovers like I used to be able to

@Leialou: I think my husband's dream job would be working on the brewing side of things. He saw a job ad for a brew master at a microbrewery once and his reaction was priceless.
Both my husband and I drink. It's been years since I've been drunk though, I'm an absolute baby when it comes to hangovers. DH drinks more than I do but generally we're a beer with dinner or few beers in an evening type drinkers.

Not now that I'm preggy.
Before that I would have a drink with dinner whenever we went out to eat. And I would have a couple of drinks with girlfriends maybe once a month. But neither hubs nor I are big drinkers at home. Usually just a single glass of wine for me or one beer for him maybe once a week if we had a crappy day at work : )

Not really, and I've never been drunk. Maybe once a year I'll nurse a margarita or pina colada. Hubby doesn't really drink either. We were made for each other :).

Rarely. I'll have a fruity drink a couple times a year

Before I got pregnant I drank 1-2x/month, but not to get drunk. Just a daiquiri or fruity drink here and there when out with friends or dinner with DH.

Most days I have a martini when I get home from work and on the weekends I will relax with a drink or two as well. I find it very relaxing, as long as I only have the one drink. Any more than that and I literally pass out on the couch then have a horrible nights sleep and pay for it the next day.

I love to indulge in a nice cider beer or delicious glass of red wine. In occasional situations I will even get a little tipsy, but now that LO is here I don't get tipsy often at all.

I did! Pre pregnancy, I would have a glass of wine with dinner a few times a week, and we would go out a few times a month and I'd have mixed drinks. I miss the taste of wine! DH still drinks regularly--he loooves scotch and often has a glass at home while relaxing. Luckily I can't stand scotch, otherwise I'd be very jealous!

I'll have an occasional glass of wine or girly-drink (like Cosmo or apple martini) with my dinner, maybe once every 2-3 months?? I haven't really had a drink in over a year since I was pregnant and now nursing.

Pre-pregnancy I would generally have a few on the weekends or at dinner out. Obviously now I am not drinking anything and will limit myself to 1 drink unless we have childcare. I never want to be impaired while watching my child.

I will once a week. Not to get drunk. But my DH and I play darts on Thursday nights, and it's always at a bar, so we will get a couple beers throughout the night!

I don't. DH does, but he's not a huge drinker. I think I've seen him drunk once, maybe? And then he'll have a beer or two if we're at a wedding or at a party. He doesn't get anything if it's just us out to eat or we're sitting around the house.
