It really gets to me when my being pregnant is deemed as easier because of this. I still struggle, I'm still an alcoholic....Im just pregnant.
wasn't suggesting that it's easier in general, Foolsgold. i was sharing my experience that it was easy
for me when pregnant. something shifted for that duration.
and i was saying it seems not uncommon for that to happen.
my kids are 36 and 38, and i quit drinking 8 years ago. tells you part of the story right there.
you're doing a grand thing, and i wish you all the best for baby and ongoing sobriety.
