I didn't. Even though some things say you can I just knew I would feel so guilty I wouldn't enjoy it.

I had a sip of DH's wine at his holiday party last year!

I ended up being too nauseous to go in the end, but I was going to go to a wine tasting with DH (I'm just barely in my 2nd trimester now).

It was a $5 for five tastes deal, so I figured the tastes would be miniscule. Our plan was for me to get my own wine tasting, have a sip, and then pass any left to DH to have extra on top of his own.

That would have been...maybe 1/6th of a glass total, all added together?

I didn't, mainly because DH was against it, but just once won't hurt. You've had a stressful day and heavily preg with twins: no one can say you don't deserve it!

I did. My OB was fine with a glass once a week; and if she felt safe telling me that, I felt that the "safe levels" were probably more than that. We have a friend who had bad anxiety in her 3rd tri and her OB told her to have a glass of wine a couple times a week if she wanted (it relieved her anxity/stress).

Some weeks I had 1 glass of wine, sometimes I had half, sometimes I had none. The majority of the world (with lower fetal alcohol birth rates) seems to be ok with a bit, especially towards the end; and it didn't stress me out to have a drink. If you do; enjoy it!!

Yup! I had a glass of Chardonnay when I was around 33 weeks. We were on vacation with some friends and DH had brought a really good bottle for us to share. I also had a glass of champagne on New Year's Eve, which was right before I entered my third trimester.

I had a glass of wine when I was like 2 days overdue. I needed it at that point. lol

I would never drink in the first tri but come third tri my midwife encouraged me to have a glass every now and then.. especially once I was put on bedrest!

I had half a glass to a glass a week in the third trimester. My OB was fine with a glass a week throughout pregnancy. Sorry you had a rough day. If a glass of wine will help you unwind, I say go for it

I had a few glasses of wine while on my hm in Spain, and 1 beer a week (dh plays ball hockey) during my last tri.

Don't forget - you don't have to drink the full glass.

I haven't yet and don't plan too. Made it this far not, so I figure I can wait another 6 weeks.

I had a couple sips of champagne at 36 weeks, hoping it would trigger labor! It totally didn't and I felt guilty after a few sips so I stopped. My boys are here and healthy!

Yep. If FAS were as easy as a glass a week, the vast majority of Europeans would have FAS.

My first pregnancy I only had a few sips here and there, but this time I plan on drinking half a glass of good wine with dinner when I go out. DH and I went out for a nice dinner the other day and it was half price wine night, so of course I had to have a little.

I've had a sip or two of DH's here and there. In fact, I had a sip f beer tonight. I'm going to have probably half a glass of red wine on my birthday in a few weeks. I'll be 34 weeks. A little red wine can reduce anxiety and pre term contractions too.

I didn't have any in my pregnancies.

I didn't until the last week I was prego. I was 40 weeks and miaerable! I actually had a beer the night my water broke!

i wasn't in my 3rd trimester yet, but i've had a glass of bubbly 4 times since i've been pregnant. new years and 3 celebrations. i was well into the 2nd trimester and it was more like half a glass. and it tasted SO GOOD.

I did once or twice. IMHO it's better than fast food, soda, HFCS, hydrogenated oil, hormones in meat, etc etc.
