First round of IUI!

I just had my first round of IUI on Tuesday! Now I'm trying not to go crazy waiting for two weeks to go get my labs done. Any tips for not thinking about it constantly? And any tips for getting through Thanksgiving without family catching on that I'm avoiding drinking and such? I don't want to tell anyone I'm trying until we get that positive test and we hit the second trimester.

Just started our second round of IUI and I’ve been telling people I’m not drinking because it’s just been making me feel sick lately if they’ve asked. As for not thinking about it that’s really hard. I tried to fill my schedule with activities. I went to the movies, hung out with friends and family, read a lot. I also went on a lot of walks with my husband. Just tried to stay busy as much as possible!

Also- one party I went to I brought non alcoholic wine and no one even noticed it wasn’t regular wine. So it looked like I was drinking.

The way I played it off was by drinking non alcoholic beer and non alcoholic wines… no one realized really. You can grab them from grocery stores or total wine. Bring your own cool or always have your glass full so no one offers you anything. Non-Alcoholic Beer Variety Pack,... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078D6VTC2?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Also tell people your on antibiotics so you can’t drink if you don’t get the non alcoholic drinks. If they ask what antibiotics is for I’d say a yeast infection and it would dead the convo lol
