I wanted to add a light thread to list off things we don't do each month during the 2ww "just in case" we are pg. Just for fun. I'll start with my top few:
- I don't buy any jeans or pants, I always wait until after SHE comes so I know I can get more use out of them.
- I don't stock up on tampons because I tell myself I may not need them for 9 months :) (I have a few on hand, but wait until AF comes to buy more.)
- I don't start any new exercise regimes
- I don't take Nyquil even if I need to (like tonight, which made me think of this)
- Any more?

LOL! :) What a good idea.
I have done everything you mentioned plus:
-no drinking
-no eating shellfish
-no massages (someone told me it could hurt implantation - that's probably not even true!):D
-no diet coke (at least I try)
Some months I'm worse than others. Seems like when I do IUIs I am really strict and months like now when it's au natural I tend to let up on myself a bit.

Just dance I love this idea!!! Let's see it has been a bit since my 2ww. I do all the same you do and.....'
-don't lift anything too heavy, make DH bring in the groceries for 2ww
-don't let dog jump on my lap :), afraid she''ll hurt my possible embie
-eat more even though really there is no reason
-examine my chest to see if I look any larger , always think I am but DH usually says no
-rub my bellie and talk to it just in case something is growing in there, yes I know crazy!! Dh will kiss bellie too :)
-and I NEVER relax I am anxious the whole time!!!!
Sorry I added things I do and don't do :)
GREAT IDEA!!!!

This is good...
-don't sleep on my stomach (just in case there's something there)
-don't exercise (I don't do this in the non-2ww either, why change anything)
-don't take pain killers
-don't use my hand held back massager (afraid something might shake loose)
Lets see....
:nono: - I don't take long hot shower or hot bath
:nono: - I don't have sex (afraid that it may cause AF to come too soon....weird hah!)
:nono: - If it was during summer time I avoid hanging out in the sun
:nono: - I avoid any form of exercise
:nono: - I avoid mopping the floor
:nono: - I avoid sugar substitute
:nono: - I avoid taking tylenol even though I have a bad headache
:nono: - I avoid wearing tight jean or pants
:nono: - I avoid manicure and pedicure and hair coloring
Well ladies the list could go on and on....since my last BFN I did everthing on the list and infact I drank a whole bottle of champange tonite all to myself. It sure felt good after months of not drinking. :D

hehe cute idea...
- i def. dont buy a brand new box of tampons because the cycle before my ivf's i tell myself thats the last box i will need for months
- dont drink caffeine
- do not vacuum or clean the floor (fumes and such)
- try not to lift, and use it as an excuse for a the little stuff too
- i rub my belly and ask my embies to stick, and i make dh put his hand there.
- indulge on some foods that are kinda fattening because i tell myelf, i will get fat anyway. and the hormones make me do it lol
- NO DRINKING
- and ive done the jean/shopping thing too, because im hoping they wont fit in a feww months..
