When medication fails
“Music affects the cortisol levels (a hormone involved in stress), SigA (an antibody) and opiates that occur naturally in the body: dopamine (a neurotransmitter implicated in the anticipation of reward) and
oxytocin
(nicknamed the ‘cuddle hormone’ because of its role in attachment and bonding).”

Quitting is Tough
No doubt the serotonin &
oxytocin
were flowing. I'll bet I'm not the only one on this forum to first smoke to show I was TUFF. Then, there are those who are even tougher. Everyone here who is reading & contributing to this forum.

Different behaviours & circumstances release "feel good" chemicals in our brain...seratonin, dopamine,
oxytocin
& endorphins. To some degree, depending on how & why you smoke all of these feel good chemicals can be triggered by smoking.

VitaminD activates 3 brain hormones serotonin, oxytocin, & vasopressin.
Supplementation with vitamin D and tryptophan is a practical and affordable solution to help prevent autism and possibly ameliorate some symptoms of the disorder. http://www.fasebj.org/content/early/2014/02/14/fj.13-246546.abstract?papetoc

41 weeks today and no signs of labour...
Gonna try watching something funny today as I heard
oxytocin
hormones can start things off... Really need to get things going soon or I know I won't get the natural birth centre experience I wanted.

oxytocin
work together. ..

How to give a dad to be a break :-)
On the other hand, most women produce
oxytocin
during and after pregnancy and can bond with the little one even in utero. The interesting thing is that the male
oxytocin
response is long lasting.

No longer Schrodinger's baby!
I guess I have to blame it on
oxytocin
, the love hormone. It kind of made me super happy (the best stoner ever!) and wanting to share the news with everybody. The pinnacle of the day: during ultrasound we got a glimpse of her chugging down amniotic fluid. Her dad's response: "Ah!

My Birth Story
I was given an epidural before starting the
oxytocin
and it was such a welcome relief. I felt like I could relax for the first time since this all started.

Emotions during pregnancy - what's common and how to cope
Love Love, including affection, intimacy and physical desire is strongly connected with the hormone
oxytocin
; which has been called the ‘hormone of love’.
Oxytocin
levels promote the contractions of the uterus during labour, but are also present in both mother and baby just after the birth.
