When it's a BFN: fun or something else to do or eat?

[Anonymous]

It's been a long year of TTC'ing and next year will be shots, IVF, the works. I've completely given up alcohol. Sometimes I eat sushi and raw cookie dough to console myself, since I hope to give those up once I'm PG. What do you do to feel better?

I buy (and drink) wine. This month I bought some foxy new clothes.

Dirty martini for me and a big plate of sushi!

After 3 years of TTC, I don't even watch what I eat or don't eat anymore Just live my life - drink a glass of wine three times a week, a cup of coffee a day, eat sushi, soft chesses.

My DH had the brilliant idea of doing something that we couldn't do with young kids whenever I was feeling really low. So if I was having a bad day, it was off to our favorite bar at 9 p.m. for burgers, or off to see the 11 p.m show of a new movie, or go get a pedicure, have friends over for an impromptu elaborate dinner, etc. It had the benefit of usually getting me out of the house and reminding me that we had a full life, even if it wasn't the one we pictured right then.

That's a great idea. I love it.
