Coping mechanisms AF

[Pluckedblueberry]

Hi everyone. Wonder what are your coping mechanisms for when AF comes and you're trying to conceive. It's feels like it's that awful time when hopes are scattered and dreams broken. I would like to know what you do when you have your period if you were planning to get pregnant... I am trying to find ideas for coping strategies.

Thank you :)

I just had a failed IUI cycle, leading up to the failing I promised myself a guilt-free shopping trip if I got my period, as a self reward. Defo helped at least a bit, I'm more frustrated /in limbo with planning my next options than with the actual failure strangely...

@Cactizone I like it... Hope you got lots of nice things!!! I understand it might be a difficult time to think about what comes next and I hope you get the everything you need to make a good decision for you!! Thank you very much for sharing your experience with me .. it means a lot!!!!

I hope you don’t need it of course, but if you do I hope you find something that works for you! All the best!
