Have you been trying to conceive and you’re either in your two week wait (TWW) or you’re newly pregnant and you’re just feeling like you’re waiting for the other shoe to drop? Are you afraid to get excited, to allow yourself to experience the joy of being pregnant because you may have had a short luteal phase or a history of pregnancy loss? You wake up every morning to check your BBT or do another pregnancy test- “am I pregnant yet?” “am I still pregnant??” The anxiety can feel overwhelming. I created this episode to help you navigate this mysterious period of the unknown.
In this episode we’ll explore:
- How your luteal phase length can be an important sign that you need to optimize nutrition on your preconception journey
- The necessary role of worry and fear on your conception journey
- How to set boundaries with your fear
- Positive affirmations to say during your TWW or early pregnancy
- Whether you should you share the news with your friends and family in early pregnancy
- How to start reframing your mindset from distrust to recognizing your body’s wisdom
