To have a sip of wine im really craving sweet wine im not a drinker at all or ever but im craving a sip

[lilnbuttonsmom]

Mumma2b has a good idea!

I drank a glass of wine on my wedding day at the time I was 10 weeks, I'm now 27w6d and doc says my baby is doing great! Is really healthy and is measuring right on track  :D

[GeekMom1213]

No, a sip of wine is not dangerous. No, a sip of beer is not dangerous. If your doctor gave you the go ahead then go for it.

My husband and my first anniversary is next Sunday and I'm having a small glass so I think it's ok my doc said just a little here and there is ok

[mumma2bee]

Maybe get some sparkling grape juice :) the taste is like wine without the alcohol

[Kaitlynlily]

Im craving beer. I hate beer. Its weird but id never even take a sip.  Its better to be safe than sorry. A smell here and there I do when my partner has a beer but not drinking it or 'sipping'

[mummyinUK]

Drinking a soda a day or even have a cake a day is so much worse. Sugar during pregnancy is something you should avoid! Sip of red wine is fine. Research on the sugar also! Defently something a baby doesn't need! Especially daily

[Rylensmommy521]

Red wine is not all that bad. Yes its alcohol a sip here or there or even a glass once in awhile is fine.  My sister drank wine throughout her whole pregnancy with my niece and she is a healthy and smart lil two year old. If anything ask you're doctor they'll tell you if you can or not.

research it hell ask your doctor if doctor says it safe go for it !:) if your doctor says it is safe then everyone else opinion really is irrelevant lol

[MamaBear96]

Soda isn't healthy, but you can have one a day.

[mege26]

Soda isn't healthy either. All the sugar... Cafine. And if you do diet then you have all of those chemicals. I have had a sip of wine with my daughter. We were at olive garden and it was literally a sip just to try it (I love wine!) But that was all I had... Well besides all the alchol and cigarettes I smoked at 4 weeks (when I didn't know of course) but there are so many things out there that are bad for you (that ppl think are ok) it's scary. Any way, one sip I wouldn't think would do anything. But ONE SIP is ONE SIP... Not a glass.

[mamaMcAnulty]

Thank you ladies. I dont know why I have this craving and I can fight it obviously just didn't know although my doctor said its safe.

[MamaBear96]

Oh well I don't like alcohol either. Anytime I have even just a little craving, I smell it & it reminds me of how sick it makes me & the cravings go away. Maybe try that?

[McKennaHall]

If you take an actual "sip" as in just enough to get a taste, there isn't going to be enough alcohol content to cross through the placenta or cause harm. If the smell didn't make me nauseous I honestly would probably have a small glass but this is something that you have to decide for yourself if your okay with it.

[smackems]

I heard its safe to drink a glass of wine during pregnancy just dont make it a habit :)

[mamaMcAnulty]

No no no not at all I don't like alcohol in general pregnant or not I was just randomly craving it. I dont like the taste of wine in general so I figured if I reminded myself it wouldn't br a craving anymore thats why I had asked

[MamaBear96]

Is a sip worth any possible harm to your baby? I say maybe drink a little soda eat something or go out and keep your mind off of the wine. Some docs say its fine others don't recommend it, but its ultimately up to you
