Baby Chronicles: Visions of Margaritas Dance in my Head!

Yes, I know... not supposed to have hard liquor whilst pregnant. They always say, "but you can have wine." Um, the last time I checked, a cold margarita on the rocks with salt, a touch of olive juice, and 3 plump olives tastes DIVINE while a glass of wine tastes like Bandaids. I've never been a big drinker. In fact, I haven't had a drink since my birthday last summer. But, the fact that I can't somehow makes it maddeningly desirable. In fact, I have been having delirious visions of myself drinking from a trough full of Margarita, Pina Colada, or Cantelope Margarita from Baby A's. Yum!

Lori says that alcohol consumed during the birthing process does not pass through the placenta. Who of you, dear friends, wants to be in charge of the alcohol come April/May? The only rule... keep the good stuff hidden from my doctor... you know, just in case. I wouldn't want to get my hopes up and then be told that tequila and epidural just don't mix well together. Surely, my doc won't notice an industrial sized margarita machine in the birthing room! ;-p
