Two weddings, a holiday, a hen and a birthday

Just found out I'm pregnant (ignoring the fact that it shouldn't be a surprise because we were actively trying, but wasn't expecting the first month) a bit worried about the number of events we have coming up that normally involve drinking before 12 weeks.

Hen party in three weeks - only 6 of in a house, will be very difficult to hide that I'm not drinking. Help what do I do? Just fake it?

Holiday with our best couple friends in 3.5 weeks, to glorious wine country. I think I have to tell them, but then feel weird not telling my parents first.

Wedding in France, oh champagne reception how I'll miss you. And wedding when I'm a bridesmaid later in the summer and need to buy a dress asap.

And my own birthday party, ripe for people buying drinks and making sure you're topped up.

Yes I know this really isn't a priority but I'm trying to quieten my massively freaked out brain with the things I can control.

That's a really good point about the French wedding, I don't eat meat so that's one thing sorted but believe on our menu there was definitely soft cheese in a lot of it! Oh well, husband will be pleased he gets double cheese.

My current freak out is that I start a new job next week (internal so still valid for mat leave) and worry I'll only be in it for 6 months before someone takes over and is in it for almost double the time!

I'm normally a pretty chilled person which this thread might not be indicating very well!
