mainly just a nosey parker on mn so never post often just enjoy reading your threads, but want to know how much you drink on average. i've always enjoyed a good drink and never had any whilst preg and bf. had pnd and still not 100% but getting there. dp and me feel we are drinking too much so after tonight only going to at wkends. on average having 3/4 to a bottle of wine(each) a night. feel like such a bad mom. also started smoking again cos get so stressed and panicy. never smoke around dd just have 1 when she has am nap and then when she goes to bed (prob average 10 a day) feel so guilty which makes me want to do it more. so fess up girls, does anyone else drink a bit too much (or even do the social taboo of being a smoking parent). and yes i will be watching dispatches tonight!

I am not a big drinker, but i smoke 15-20 a day. Never smoked when pregnant. Started again when i had PND. I hate smoking and have tried to give up many times, don't think im ready yet.

I think it's a good idea that you have decided to only drink at weekends, good for you and your dd.

Good luck
