I have just discovered I am pregnant with my first child and barely 4 weeks gone. The problem is, my partner and I have arranged to go on a camping holiday with a group of friends next week. Lots of booze and bbq's, as I'm sure you can imagine. I normally drink like a fish when I go out with friends, and they are going to notice if I drink orange juice for 7 days straight! My partner thinks I should invent a story about straining my back and being on antibiotics - hence no alcohol intake allowed. But, I'm sure they will either try and coax me into drinking or be highly suspicious. One of my friends is a Nanny and very suspicious by nature. Do I tell the truth or go with the ' bad back' story? Will they even believe it? If I miscarry, I'd hate having to tell people. But then, we often socialise with our friends. Can I keep the lie going for another 2 months??!!
