Early in my fertility journey, on my first treatment cycle, I miscarried at 11 weeks. It was 8 days before Christmas.
I’m not quite sure how I got through that one. A good guess is there was wine involved. I’m not advocating that.
What I do advocate, however, is making your well-being your top priority, wherever you are on your fertility journey. It might look like:
- Taking a break from holiday gatherings (again) this year.
- Putting up holiday decorations – or not. You decide.
- Taking a social media break.
- Surrounding yourself with people who are supportive and understanding.
- Having a dance party. (Solo is fine… great even.)
- Attending a support group.
- Thinking about one thing you are truly grateful for, and saying, “thank you”.
I hope this helps.
