38 weeks and cannot wait to have a drink???

[Anonymous]

Just wondering if there is any one else out there that has the same feeling, I am craving a martini and just cannot wait any longer.

May be not the whole thing - but a tiny sip, just to satisfy the craving would be ok

Oddly enough, I planned to allow myself the occasional glass of wine during pregnancy and, inexplicably, have not wanted any. I think I've had one half glass the entire time. So now I'm not really craving a drink at all. So strange, I totally thought I would be. But I think if you haven't allowed yourself to have any, it might be a stronger urge than if you just decided you didn't want it. We'll see, though, I'm 38 weeks as well, so soon enough either way!

I'd go for it (or at least some of it!) if I were you. At that point I felt totally comfortable having some beer, wine, etc.

Oh yeah, go for it, unborn babies love some gin once in a while.

I had a Sprite the other day and if I closed my eyes, I could almost pretend it was a vodka tonic. I'm looking forward to my first drink too.

I'm not a big drinker at all, maybe one glass of wine every couple of weeks. But I CRAVED a drink while pregnant. I had half a glass late in pregnancy sometime, and then wanted hubby to bring champagne to the hospital . That never happened. I did have a glass about a month after delivery. I was just too daggumit tired after giving birth and trying to nurse, the thought of alcohol on top of that was just too much to bear.

I AM a big drinker but PP's words rang so true for me - after number one, I so thought I'd be excited to have wine, beer, margaritas, etc again (as in, more than one glass per sitting). But damn, I was so freaking tired. I think it was a good three months before I really enjoyed drinking again. Sigh. I know I'll be there again someday..

I am a big drinker, too, in my 3d tri, and every time I see a delicious looking cocktail at someone else's table in a restaurant, I am so envious I feel like I could swipe it off their table and gulp it down instantaneously. I cannot wait to start drinking again! So it's not just you, OP.
