TWW over Christmas and new year

I will be entering my 2 week wait at the weekend, just before Christmas and the earliest I can probabaky get away with testing is on the first jan.

I had a miscarriage in September and since then ttc has taken over my life, constantly looking at dates and working out shift patterns for dh and symptom spotting like a mad woman!

Anyway last month after my BFN I decided I needed to change my approach and try and live life as normal until if/when I get a BFP. This includes having 1 or 2 glasses of wine, using the jacuzzi in the gym and eating things like pate. Whilst I do all of this I don’t go overboard I should say though a big part of me is anxious since the mc and doesn’t want to do anything risky in the TWW though at the same time I feel like I need to keep doing the things I normally do (within reason).

Is anyone else have the same feelings and should I actually be really strict with myself? Ttc is so hard!!!

I’m in a similar situation to you in that I had an early miscarriage (was 6weeks) at the beginning of October. We decided to keep trying and I’m due my period 29th Dec. I am not a big drinker but just thought well it’s christmas and as long as don’t drink excessively I’m just going to enjoy the festive time and once a test shows I’m pregnant then I won’t have any more.

I have 2 children already and with my first I didn’t realise I was pregnant until a good few weeks in so did have a glass or 2 whilst pregnant and there is no issues with her at all so I wouldn’t worry about eating or drinking anything early on. Hopefully we both get some good news in the new year!
