BFN consolation Board

By MrsMccarthy Jan 21, 2014

I thought it might be fun and helpful to have a board where we can list our consolation plans in the event of BFN or AF. It might help us to get ideas from each other and find new ways to try to enjoy the time when our bodies aren't pregnant. I really hope most of us don't have to console ourselves for long or at all.

I am currently on 3DPO. In my case I plan to go for sushi, wine and a BIG OL latte. I am also considering a spa day involving hottubs and saunas. How do you treat yourself when you get a BFN or AF?

BFN today and I am excited to be able to have some drinks and ski without any guilt this weekend (unless I miraculously get a BFP before then)

BFN yesterday and CD1 today. I may just leave work early and sit in a hot tub with some wine before going to sleep mega early today. I like to allow one day of sulking.

CD21. A hot tub sounds nice. I was at a party at a gym on Sunday and I REALLY wanted to use the hot tub.

If I get a BFN this cycle- there is a 3 day fast that has been sitting in my fridge waiting for me: http://www.mybeyondorganic.com/Products_FoodPackagesSueroCleanse.aspx

CD14!

I told DH if I am not KU this cycle, I want to go out and have a non-baby friendly date.

Get some sushi, drink a lot, see a late movie, etc. Maybe even a massage.

@MrsMcD: I'm sorry.

I will probably go buy myself something. I like to shop away my feelings. LOL.

I LOVE the idea of a hot tub/spa day! So stealing that is I get a BFN this cycle. I don't like the taste of sushi or alcohol, so that is a perfect idea.

If I'm still not pregnant by this summer (hopefully that doesn't happen), then a Cedar Point trip is happening ASAP and I will ride all the roller coasters, haha.

@MrsMccarthy: Oh! I just realized that I could potentially test early next month and get a bpf on valentine's day. That would be nice! there's always a silver lining, right?

CD1 today. I would say tonight will be sushi and wine but I'm actually looking forward to our usual homemade black-bean quesadillas we've got planned. With beer, though!

BFN yesterday. My husband and I were planning a small pre-TTC date weekend but decided to start early. Well now that it looks like BFN city around here I am excited to get out for the weekend and have some drinks. We are staying the night in our old college town where we lived after we got married. So lots of bar hopping and good food, some of it contraband for preg.

When we started ttc I decided that each failed cycle means picking out a new article of clothing. I also try to schedule something non ttc related to look forward to also like shopping with a friend, a massage or a night of playing board games with my husband. The hot tub and drinks are great ones too! Our gym has a great hot tub and I really want to go use it but don't really want to work out... how awful is that?

@Cole: not awful at all! You should treat yourself. You can do prenatal yoga when you get KU!

I'm currently 11dpo, if my test is still negative on Saturday, then DH and I are going out to get smashed with friends. We haven't done it since October and we need to let our hair down. (I haven't looked our my outfit yet as I'm still hoping this is our month!)

oooh treating ourselves thread - I didn't realize you can't dye your hair during Tri-1 so definitely going to do my roots. I've been enjoying wine, going on a business trip this week so I won't hold back unless I see that pink line.

Need to think of some more fun things..

I want to get my nails done. I don't want to be around those chemicals when I'm pregnant.

LOL.@Mrs tartan won't be getting smashed.

God forbid this cycle is a dud, I will shop my sorrows away, buying sandals and sunglasses (we have 2 vacations planned in the next 3&4months) . I will also call my OB and ask 2 things:
- give me a higher dose of Clomid
- give me the # to a RE
