Infertility

My new "non-guilty" guilty pleasure

Normally, at night, to relax, pamper myself and indulge a little bit, I have a glass or two of red wine. But with this IVF coming soon, I've sworn off alcohol (ok, maybe I'll have a glass of wine with Christmas dinner and a glass of egg nog with DH Christmas morning) so I've need to find a replacement.

Chocolate milk! 

Every night I drink a huge glass of chocolate milk...and it is so good! Creamy, sweet, chocolately...feels so indulgent! 

Because of the calories, I limit myself to one glass a night..and I seriously look forward to having my glass at night and get sad when it is gone. 

 

Oh...what IF has done to me...I've reverted to a 4 year old. 

TTC #1 since June 2008 *SAIFW*
