Suggestions for self nurturing when you are undergoing treatment for infertility.
• Find an activity that relaxes you: knitting, downloading music, reading, etc. Make time for this everyday.
• Plan an excersise routine. Even if it’s just walking around your neighborhood. Consider joining a gym with a friend. Planning to do excersise with a friend make the likelihood that you will continue to go more after the first week probable.
• Cut down on caffine.
• Watch a comedy.
• Write a letter to an old friend.
• Write your thoughts down in a journal.
• Join a support group. There are often free support groups available to individuals and couples going through fertility treatment.
• Plan a long weekend away, even if you only travel 30min. away, this can be a “real get away”
Women often don’t take the time to self nurture, rather we are often focused on the needs of those around us. Remember that one key to survivng the infertility journey is taking control of the things that you can. This list of suggestions is something you can control.
