TTC After a Loss

Trying some new stuff...

So, as you can probably imagine, I am about to pull my hair out since I have not O'd yet.  Since I know that stress is obviously not good for bringing on ovulation, and since I don't know any other ways to "de-stress" besides working out (which apparently is not working), I decided to try out a yoga class today at lunch.  I am the most inflexible person, so the class was a little bit difficult for me.  I tried my best to really take advantage of the deep breathing parts, and I do feel more relaxed now. 

And tomorrow morning, I am getting an hour massage!  I was thinking about how I O'd on CD20 last month (my normal is around CD22), and I realized that I had 2 massages in December for knots in my back, so maybe there is something to massages for fertility. 

Also, my mom is learning how to do Reiki, and although we like to make fun of her for this, I told her today that I need some Reiki done on my ovaries!  I'm just willing to try anything right now!

  • I have also been extremely stressed this month.  Hormones are going crazy.  I have also been working out a lot this cycle.  I decided that I am not going to stop living my life because of TTC.  It took a while of working out for me to actually feel a little good.  Keep it up!  Massage is a great idea.  enjoy it
  • I swear the month after my first miscarriage I ovulated early bc we went for this amazing bike ride during fall foliage. It was the first time I let my mind rest and I felt so good... I ovulated two days later. I whole heartedly believe trying to let your mind and body rest is the best medicine so I love all your new ideas! Good luck ovaries!!

  • You know, last August when I had my BFP, I had had two massages and the world's best facial during O week and just after. I think you're on to something. Next month I'm going to book some spa time during O time!
