I would say my answer is similar to @smurfette and @blackbird...
I tend to have a glass of wine most nights of the week as a way to unwind and a couple on the weekends depending on if we are out with friends or not.
It hasn't changed post kids...just tend to not over-indulge on the weekends as much as I would before babies. -
I voted 1 drink a week but that's an exaggeration. I'll have maybe 1-2 drinks a month, if that. Though, if it's the summer time and you have frozen drinks like pina colada or strawberry daiquiri, I'll definitely have one. Though, I'm a light weight and I prefer not to taste my alcohol. I'll ask that they dilute it more with soda or juice. Haha. I'll sip a white wine but I prefer sweet wines like Moscato.
DH on the other hand will have 3-4 beers or more a week. I won't have an issue when I get pregnant. Good thing guys can't get pregnant.
-
I avg maybe 10 drinks a year lol. Before kids maybe 3 or 4 a month, never a big drinker.
-
3-6 a week. Depends a lot on how tired my kiddos make me
-
Pre baby and post BFing, probably near the same times per week but after not any of the random drunk nights that I had pre baby. I have wine or beer 4-5 times a week. Sometimes more, sometimes less!
-
Before I had kids, I rarely drank. Maybe 1-2 drinks per month.
-
I pretty much only drink around my parents, lol. DH doesn't really like the taste of most alcohol and I can take it or leave it. My parents are big drinkers though (as in wine every night with dinner) so I might have some wine or sangria when I'm around them. My dad makes a really good white wine sangria that even DH likes the taste of.
-
I am currently pregnant but pre-pregnancy I would have 1-3 drinks at least 3 nights a week. It was rare I didn't come home from work and have a glass of wine (or 2) with my husband, and on weekends it was usually more than that . A lot of my social life revolved around meeting friends for drinks at happy hours and weekends spent wine tasting, and this is something I miss dearly. My social life has plummeted being pregnant. I feel very boring.
-
I actually drink more now than I did before I had a kid lol. But I still don't drink weekly. I might have something once or twice a month now after bed time. Before having a baby I would frequently go several months between having a drink.
-
I have a drinking problem, so no drinks here. But I don't miss it at ALL.
-
I have one drink a night, and then maybe an extra drink one of the weekend nights, so about 8/week.
I am planning to cut back, but for financial reasons! I'm comfortable with the amount that I drink. I do have a child, but the only decrease is that before I'd probably have more than 2 drinks once a week (like, we'd go out to dinner, have a cocktail, and then split a bottle of wine....not up for that anymore!)
-
We're living it up before TTC, so ... probably way too many, haha.
-
1 or 2 a month. DH isn't a big drinker either, so we rarely drink before or after our son.
-
Pre-pregnancy, probably have a drink a couple times a week.
-
Didn't drink pre-baby and still don't drink. I prefer sweet tea.
-
@blackbird: Ha! I voted 7, and then got a bit embarrassed.
We usually don't drink M-F, but we'll split a bottle of wine on Friday, do a mixed drink (or two) on Saturday, Mimosas on Sunday morning, and a beer or two on Sunday night.
-
@smith: Oh girl! We went to Vegas the month before I conceived, and I think I was more alcohol than water!
-
Pre-babies I was firmly in the 7+ a week camp, as I usually had one beer or glass of wine a day, and 2 on Friday and/or Saturday. After my first was born, I was closer to 1 a week, then slowly crept up to 3-4 drinks a week depending on her feeding schedule.
-
Pre-baby.... yeah, it was a lot. Now? I dont have much of a taste for it anymore. A handful of times a year.
-
@youboots: I hope it goes back to the old days. It's been too long since we've been able to really drink together!!!
-
None. Haha. I usually had a couple of glasses of wine a week, but after pregnancy and breastfeeding I've just lost interest. I had some sips of a margarita over vacation but normally 0.
-
I swear I responded to this, but I don't see it now.
Pre DS - I drank pretty frequently. Definitely every weekend, and 1-2 glasses of wine during the week.
Post DS, Pre preg - Maybe 1-2 drinks per month, if that.
Now I'm pregnant, so none. No caffeine either. Booooo
