[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was pregnant I drank a lot of those San Pellegrino sparkling waters. In a wine glass! Mix plain sparkling water with orange juice and it's kind of a mimosa lol

I also like kombucha (though I'm picky about brands) and green tea. The looseleaf kind in an infuser. Feels luxurious[/quote]

+1 on kombucha and other fermented drinks.  For that matter, I sometimes make myself wine spritzers when I want to enjoy wine in a low quantity.[/quote]

+2 on kombucha, and setting hard limits for yourself. For me, I decided that I would no longer drink alcohol on weeknights unless I was attending a special event like a work happy hour (which is rare for me, maybe once every 3 months - I would probably set a different limit if you have these more frequently). Instead I drink kombucha or sparking water with dinner. It was hard for maybe the first 2 weeks but now it feels effortless. I would also say for the first 6 months or so of this routine, I really really looked forward to having wine/beer on Friday and Saturday night, but over time my craving for that faded too. Now I typically have maybe 2 glasses of wine or a beer once a week.[/quote]
