Trying to relax..

in TTC After a Loss

So carried my last pregnancy for 19 wk 5 d due to IC and we are trying to conceive again. I bought the Taking Charge of Your Fertility book and I am already done with the sections that have specific relevance to me..now any ideas on how to relax and not get so worked up about trying and the disappointment when we don't conceive? Plz help!

    I am so sorry you lost your little one. I don't really have any suggestions on how to relax. TTC is such an emotional roller coaster and for me the swing of emotions has multiplied since my loss.

    I'm sorry for your loss.  I don't have any advice about relaxing during this whole process.  You know you should relax, but somehow it doesn't seem to happen.  It's like having a restless night and knowing you need to sleep, but not being able to force yourself to actually sleep.  (And actually thinking about sleeping, just makes it worse.)  At least that's how it is for me.  I have found that these ladies here are excellent at understanding and being supportive - so when you feel yourself going bonkers they'll keep you grounded or commiserate.  Just remember the cardinal rule of TTCAL - you have to give support to get support.

    I'm pretty relaxed now but that's because we're TTA. Once we're back at TTC I'm sure I'll go back to my old crazy self. The only thing that has helped me in the past is keeping myself busy with work, projects, socializing, etc.
