What's your BFN consolation prize?

Mrs. MetMrs. Met
in Trying to Get Pregnant

It sucks to get a bfn. What do you do to make yourself feel better?

(I'll have a huge cup of coffee with Equal or if I'm feeling extra feisty, a beer... or a hot dog)

    last CD1 (didn't even make it to a BFN) I overdid it with the junk food and wine.  this time, I think I'll just go for junk food.

    I just pictured you saying this in the voice of the old man from Family Guy. (I don't expect that anyone will know what I'm talking about.)

    My BFN consolation prize is happy hour and lots of sushi.

    Wine, but this is the month we were REALLY hoping for, so if it's a BFN then I think some chocolate martinis are in order.

    Definitely echo the wine sentiment. Also I've "treating" myself each CD1 to something slightly frivolous and sometimes TTC-related: FF VIP membership, Cheri22 reading, etc.

    I usually wait until AF comes to indulge, I am always delusional that AF won't show and I "Still have a chance" after the BFN. As soon as AF arrive I will have a bottle, I mean glass of wine.

    CD1 this cycle I had a large glass of wine. I think if this cycle is a bust I will probably treat myself to something else, not sure what.

    Ah yes, I do the same.  I mistakenly equated "BFN" with "CD1" in the OP.

    My consolation prizes last time were a margarita & Ben & Jerry's Phish Food Ice Cream. That ice cream is A-MAZING.

    This. Last cycle on CD1 I went to Lulu Lemon and got myself some new boogie crops. And I love them and they make me happy. This cycle I was too busy today when I got AF, but tomorrow night is a night out with my girlfriends. I already told DH I will be very drunk and he will have to come get me.
