Emotions

So fustrated with myself because I just can't seem to pull myself together ..... This is such a long road one failed Ivf and preparing yourself for another ... Don't know how I suppose to feel .... How do you fight on when your fight as up and left xx

Try not to be hard on yourself. IVF is such a difficult process. I needed more time between treatment than I had anticipated to recover physically and emotionally. Starting to feel excited is a key indicator to myself that I'm ready to try again. We,re shortly going to have round 3 of ICSI.

Your fight will return (and likely disappears and return again) many times during this journey.

Be nice to yourself.

Aw pm27 is so right, don't be so hard on yourself. We have amazing inner strength us girls to cope with our ivf journey. Try and plan something nice this weekend. I strongly recommend some meditation. I remember feeling exactly how you're feeling now after my first failed cycle. Now, thanks to regular acupuncture & 20 mins meditation each night I'm in a much better place. The meditation is the only thing that allows me to switch off my ivf brain. I read the Zita West book too and found it very informative. I felt this helped ease a lot of my anxiety as it explains a lot. Sending you a big hug Little3535 💖 x x
