You all may face this question at one point or another. Your wife should not drink to protect your unborn child/children. What about you? This becomes pretty tricky. You may think you are lucky because for 9 months you have a built in designated driver. This is true but it comes with many more problems than you know.
Before you (I mean the collective you), got pregnant there were plenty of late nights with bottles of wine or beer. What happens when you get the question, "Are you setting the right example for your unborn children?" Tread lightly my friend. This is a minefield that is very tough to navigate and can easily blow up in your face. Keep in mind past behavior and be very sensitive to your wife's feelings.
Have you ever been sober while your friends were drinking to their hearts content? Imagine how your wife feels. This is a very thin line. Never get too drunk. Keep in mind that you are part of a team. You are no longer able to be "that guy". Have a drink or two but be conscious of your spouses feelings. I have to admit this is not the easiest thing for me to conquer.
Your wife is experiencing the same hangover you may have every day. Keep it in moderation and keep your wife's feelings in your thoughts. It will serve you better in the long run.
