Period Presents

abby412abby412 member
edited October 2015 in Trying to Get Pregnant
When I start my tww, I make a plan for what treats I will give myself to soften the blow if I don't get pregnant. It's usually something I couldn't do if I was preggers. This month I'm going to buy a bottle of scotch and eat some brie. Do you ladies "treat yo selves" after disappointment? If so, what are your plans this month?

    Wine. Lots of wine.

    Just fyi though, you can eat brie (and any soft cheese) while pregnant as long as it's pasteurized.

    FloridaStanley Right there with you! I came in expecting to be horrified.

    Scotch and soft cheese sound fantastic! I love the peaty stuff, especially as it gets chilly.

    I had a great cotes du rhone paired with steak tartar CD2 this month.

    Drinking all the liquor and wine.

    Since we are talking about fall drinks, my go to drink right now is the "Cinnamon Toast Crunch." It's Rumchata, Fireball, and a splash of vanilla vodka. Seriously delicious.

    Edited: because I got the name of the alcohol wrong. Haha.

    Whoops, meant to say RumChata. While Horchata is delicious and would work as well, there's no alcohol in it. Haha. LOVE RumChata.

    I usually also go for wine without really planning anything but I am digging this idea.

    I may also talk to DH about getting me "period presents" from now on when AF shows up hahaha

    This is a fantastic idea! I'm in the TWW right now and if AF shows I am going to go to the local winery with DH and drink all the wine. Everytime we go there it turns out a great night and rough next day!

    Godiva dark dark truffles. I'm trying to cut back on wine (weight loss). I make a conscious effort to appreciate the family I have on those Days.

    So, chocolate, cuddles with my husband, & the kiddos.

    Last month I was very obsessive and convinced it would happen since my doctor said after going off the pill you are super fertile. Everyone else warned me my body needs time. I stopped drinking for almost a month and ate all sorts of fertility foods. Even though it's only been a couple months I was a wreck, but now I'm treating myself to happy hours and bought my favorite beer for camping this weekend. Ive also been exercising more. Im actually now excited to try again! Giving treats to yourself is such a great idea! Good luck to you!!
