Feeling awful

I am 13 weeks and have craved cider ever since I found out. Tonight I gave in and have had 1 can of Strongbow. It was gorgeous and heavenly.

But I know feel horrible, awful and guilty. I will only have this one drink through the whole pregnancy as LittleLapin(the lovely lady) has told me where I can get alcohol free cider.

I'm so sorry and feel like I need to get it out as DH doesn't share my guilt because he says he is happy if I am.

Ah now you need what my DH makes me now and then - somerset pork casserole, it tastes of cider but the alcohol is cooked out. It's yummy.

But no, one can of cider does not an alkie make.

Mind you, did you read this one: www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1025232/Woman-dressed-bumble-bee-gives-birth-friends-hen-night--d idnt-know-pregnant.html

Now that would have been a bad one to wake up to, a hangover and oooh hang on, who is this little screaming thing next to me!?

Stop worrying Kayz! It won't hurt. Although I did feel somewhat similar when I had a can of diet coke earlier! But it was lovely and no doubt i will have more

Actually I reckon Southernbelle77's had the more toxic drink out of the two of you

I can just imagine the paramedics facing though, turning up and finding a slightly pissed bumblebee hunkering down in the loo and straining

What a shock it must have been.

The best cider I have found is Waitrose own brand low alcohol cider - it really is very excellent indeed. 0.5 units per bottle. Tesco do a very close second at 0.2 units per bottle.

Whomovedmychocolate, I love the distraction technique you've used here. I do hope that baby makes it ok though.

So do I elkiedee -I've been following the story on the newswires and the baby is doing incredibly well so far. So fingers crossed for the (very surprised) mum. If it was me, I'd never dare go out to the pub again!
