CD1.. how do you deal?

in Trouble TTC a Sibling
cd1 here today and I'm angry/disappointed/depressed.. you know, the usual. How do you ladies deal? Is there someone you talk to or something you do that helps? I got home and just wanted to cuddle with my son, but he wanted nothing to do with weepy, boring Mama. Tried to do the same with my dog, but he is the 85-lb furry version of my toddler.

    I always give myself that day to feel sorry for myself. Usually a cherry coke and a milky way makes me feel a bit better.

    Other times I'll put the kids in the car and go for a drive. There's something about having the radio on a good station with the open road in front of you that just makes things better.

    CD1 always sucks. I hope you find something that eases it a bit.

    I have gotten better about it, but I use to cry a lot on CDs 1 and 2 and then try to focus on/get excited (as excited as one can be) on the next cycle.

    I also agree about getting out of the house, we spend lots of time at the mall (play area) and the library.

    Dh brings me cupcakes. I have a cupcake each day AF is here. Definitely not the healthiest way to cope, but it helps in the moment.

    Thank you, ladies. Gilmore Girls on netflix and a couple of dark chocolate sea salt caramels helped. I couldn't get out yesterday, but I'm going to look into driving out somewhere beautiful this weekend.

    Bubble bath, massage, pedicure, yoga class. .. . do something to treat yourself and give yourself a bit of a distraction.

    I'm sorry, it's tough :(

    I'm usually testing before AF shows so I already know it's coming. So now going through treatment I tend to take a deep breath and look at CD 1 as the start of a new cycle of possibility. Oh and I  might have a drink. ;)

    I don't have anyone to really talk to since we're not telling people were trying. If at all possible I prefer to grab the softest blanket in the house and stay on the couch. But I get terrible cramps cd1.
    But I like the 3 w's!
