Dinner tonight....q...help

We're going to dinner tonight with my parents and siblings. We always have drinks, if I don't order one they will know right away. SIL will also blurt out, are you pregnant and there's no way I'd be able to keep a poker face. How do I handle this situation? We're also driving with parents (was thinking of having DH get me a seltzer etc at the bar b4 they arrived.)

We're not ready to say anything yet.

If you get there before everyone, you could get a selzer with cranberry or something like taht to look like you are having a drink--i did this a few times. Or if you are not there first, just say you are parched and want a selzer. YOu could always go the route of you are taking anitbiotics but that usually backfires. Good Luck!!

You could also say you have an upset stomach or something.

Try to make your way to the bar first and get a shirley temple of a non-alcoholic beer.

Say you're on antibiotics (although my cousin still figured it out after I said that)
