Infertility

Your desire to conceive a baby may have started with joyful wishes and happy

expectations. You were ready, your body felt ready and so was your heart.

But it's been over a year now that you’ve been trying and the hopeful start

has disappeared into frustration and anxious thoughts are filling your head.

You may have found yourself questioning or bargaining with your faith.

Or doubting your choice of partner, or feeling angry or resentful towards them.

You may also have been feeling bitterness towards other woman who

seem to fall pregnant so easily. Or filled with guilty thoughts about

things that happened in the past.

Or you may just be tired and depleted. Feeling that when or if you conceive

your baby, everything would be alright again...

If you relate to any of these, then you are definitely not

alone. They all are common symptoms for women

experiencing infertility.

They are also symptoms of depression and studies show that

infertile women are every bit as depressed as people confronting

potentially terminal illnesses¹.

Maybe with all the positive thinking, yoga classes, self discipline and vitamins

you’ve been taking, you didn’t realise how bad mentally things had become.

Or maybe, you’ve tried psychology before, but for now anti-depressants

just aren’t your thing.

The relief is that body mind approaches to conception do work.

Learning how to relax your body, clear out painful beliefs from the past and

alleviating depression and other psychological distress in infertile woman appears

to make it easier for them to become pregnant².
