My husband and I tried for three years and two months before we were successful—that’s 41 cycles and 41 two-week waits. Each cycle started the same: I was optimistic, excited and positive.

But as each day passed afterand no pregnancy symptoms presented themselves, I would start to feel frustrated, sad and mad. We were doing everything we could when we should—why wasn’t it working?

If you are going through the two-week wait, here are 10 ways to make the most of your time without worrying.Go for lunch or get your friends together for a movie night, retro games night or book club—whatever will put a smile on your face and take your mind off things.
