Help me think of a good excuse not to drink

I am getting together with friends for dinner tihs weekend and we always get a bottle of wine to share.

I got my BFP this on Monday. What can I say about why I am not drinking that won't give me away instantly?

Say you are were sick and are still on antibiotics. Or say you are just getting over a cold and don't want to relapse or something.

I would take a glass of wine and just take a few small sips from it. If someone notices you aren't really drinking just say you have a little bit of a headache and wine always makes it worse.

Re: Help me think of a good excuse not to drink

i would either say you are going to be the designated driver for the night, that you are on antibiotics OR just drink something that looks like a mixed drink like club soda - i've done this when i am the designated driver and people are busting my chops about not drinking - or cranberry juice with a littler water Chat Icon

I would probably put a glass in front of me and take a few sips and hopefully they won't notice that you didn't really even drink it!

There are so many people sick right now, I'd say you were already drunk on cold medicine, make it a joke.

I like the few sips thing...throw some ice in it if it is white so it looks like a lot more wine and you'll water it down so you won't feel bad if you take a few sips either. Enjoy dinner!
