dealing with the 2ww

Ive done this wait for well over a year now but I guess becuase I had a confirmed ovulation this month I am more scared of getting AF or a BFN.

Any hints on making it through this first one on clomid? I am trying my hardest to not set myself up for dissapointment however I am so scared of that BFN/AF that I think I will finally have a break down. I don't think I'll be able to handle it this month!

Re: dealing with the 2ww

Take it easy but try to keep yourself occupied.

In some respects my 2WW's have been somewhat easier (up until 2 cycles ago) because we gutted a house and were redoing everything. I would leave work every day to rush back to the house and meet with the contractor, run to Home Depot, etc. I'd have so many decisions to make about faucets, lighting, tile, appliances, you name it that it really distraced me for a while.

Some suggestions:
-long walks/hikes, see LI Greenbelt web site for more info

-help out a family member, friend or neighbor, especially one who is elderly

-take a friend to one of those pottery places and paint something

-scrapbook oir put all of those pictures you meant to put in albums in albums

-reorganize the house/apt.

-make some new dishes for dinner

I usually don't have trouble keeping busy hope some of my suggestions helped. Unfortunatey, it's never far from your mind.
