Managing emotions.

[Emma04]

We are in the midst of our third icsi cycle and last time around I was a nightmare to live with. I’m trying really hard this time not to fly off the handle at everything but it’s already proving tricky. Anyone have any advice for me on how to handle this or is it just ride it out? I hate how differently this medication makes me react and my husband gets the brunt of it which really isn’t fair on him. He says it’s ok and he understands but he’s going through this too and I feel so awful. Any words of advice would be really appreciated. Thanks, Emma

My hubbie worked away most of the last round and I found it much easier being home alone. I know that might not be very helpful but perhaps encourage him to go out with his mates etc- relaxation for him and then he’ll be around less to get on your nerves?

Do you know I think you might be right!

Much harder to be horrible to someone when they’re not around xx

Try taking vitamin b6 100mg (check with your doctor). It is sometimes prescribed for pms so I tried it during my last cycle and it totally calmed my crazy mood. I was a bit of a nightmare before that lol. If you do try it, let me know how you go
