Well, I'm back in the 2-week wait again... I feel good about this month!

Either way, though, it's a win-win, sort of... we have a raucous camping festival coming up over Memorial Day, and I'll be able to test the day before it starts. Sooo.... either I'll have to stay sober during the weekend but be thrilled knowing I'm pregnant, or I'll be sad to be not pregnant, but able to enjoy four days of debauchery before having to go back on the TTC diet.

I'm totally hoping for the former, but if it's the latter, at least I still have something to look forward to at the end of the month.

On that note... I'm not *that* much of a drinker, but I do find it sooo hard to resist my wine and beer when others around me are partying. I do resist it, but I get a little grumpy. Anyone else find that to be the hardest part of TTC?

Welcome to the 2ww!! I am suffering through it with tons of "symptoms" and BFN's. I like your attitude and am glad that if you get a BFN, at least you have something to distract you and enjoy yourself with. I hope you aren't able to drink though! I know what you mean about being around friends who are drinking and not being able to. For one thing, I like to join in on the fun and for another, I get really annoyed with drunk people when I am sober. But....in the end it will all be worth it! The prospect of a healthy baby is good motivation!

Hope you also don't get to drink! But sounds like a great end to the month no matter which way it goes(better for the first though).
I started drinking sparkling fruit juices and/or alcohol free wine when pregnant. Near beer isn't too bad either, especially on those really hot summer days. The key for me on the juice or wine is to make sure it's in a wine glass, makes it feel more like I'm joining in the party.
A pretty glass can make almost anything your drinking feel more special.

Good luck I hope this is your month for a BFP.
I do not really enjoy drinking but I have socially at times , because it makes me relax and be myself in the crowd. I think a sip of wine wont really hurt anything.

Great idea about the wine glass! When I finally get my BFP, I'm going to buy myself a special glass just for socializing!

Well, I'm hoping for a sober Memorial Day Weekend too, for sure! If it is, I'll pick up some plastic wine glasses and fruit juice. Maybe I'll even *act* drunk so no one will know the difference.
