At least we think it did. This past weekend we went out with all my close friends to celebrate 2 30th birthdays. We went up to Atlantic City to go out to dinner and wander around the casinos. Luckily we got to the restaurant before they were able to seat us, so during that time R was able to order me two cranberry and clubs with lime, the second of which I nursed through dinner. I was asked once or twice what I was drinking and responded with cranberry and vodka, one of my usuals. R apparently got a few "hows the baby-making going?" questions during dinner at the guys end of the table, but he was able to answer vaguely enough to not arouse any suspicions.
I will say that I did not think the casino idea through very much. Even not pregnant I wouldn't have wanted to be in that smoky mess, but I didn't really have much choice at that point so I just did my best to find the clearest air. At least a migraine became a super legitimate reason that I didn't drink anything there.
So, either all my friends have figured it out, but know we don't want them to know, so they are being really good at pretending they don't...or we did a really great job of fooling them. The next test is this Saturday with all the same people at a friend's house. This should be a little trickier, because I'm usually playing bartender and whipping up all the awesome drinks.

Good luck! I was pregnant during football season last year, so for a couple of our tailgates I brought a bottle of vodka that I had emptied and replaced with water. It made for some watered down drinks, but fooled everyone!
ReplyDeletesounds to me like you have them all fooled! Good luck with next weekend.
ReplyDeleteooh good luck! at least as bartender, you have full control over the drinks you make for yourself!
