Is it inappropriate to drink it at 3pm on a Wednesday afternoon when you're six months pregnant?

Nothing else will satisfy my craving for bitter fizziness, but it does feel a bit wrong to be casually drinking it. My kids were playing out on the street on their scooters this week and I really fancied a 0% Bavaria, but I didn't want to be seen drinking it in public with a great big bump.

Am I being weird or is my paranoia justified?

(This is very light hearted by the way!)

:o I do know what you mean. It's the same principle as I won't let the DC drink it, even though I can't say what's wrong with that.

Drink whatever you fancy, but from what i remember anyone seeing you drinking beer at any time of day while PG gives you funny looks. You keep having to tell them it's NOT ALCOHOLIC.

However I think Becks Blue is nicer than Bavaria :)

Conversely, when I'm int he house on my own during the day, on the very rare occasions where I don't have to drive later (eg today as the CM is dropping the DC off) I get the urge to have a lunchtime drink. Completely inappropriate as I am ort of working, and I don't usually drink alone in the daytime :o It's just the fact that I could if I wanted to.

yes I like the becks blue

I'll check out Becks Blue, but do it in the comfort of my own home. I almost popped to Morrisons when i was at work to get some the other day, but that really did feel wrong.

I know what you mean about the daytime drinking urge (when not pregnant). Think that could be a fast and slippery slope, but I did love a lunch time tickle before the DCs came along.

This isn't about anything other than taste and fiz though. And I don't think it can be achieved in any other way but 0% larger.
