Managing The Two Week Wait (Video Transcript)

Something that always comes across with my clients experience of IVF is that the horizon is very, very short.

It really is taking it one day at a time. You need to be, obviously, prepared for calls and texts from your clinic that things can change very, very rapidly.

You do not have a crystal ball. You cannot anticipate what's going to happen. You can mind yourself. You can get through your days. You can distract yourself and you can show up for appointments as and when required.

You can make sure you get plenty of sleep and rest. A little bit of fun, some movement and, you know, the sense of having a little bit of off duty as well

The feeling that you are somehow controlling it moment by moment is not accurate. It is a little bit of superstitious thinking to think if I do this it will impact in this way. There isn't that direct causation and correlation.

So cut yourself a little bit of slack. You've got where you are and you're doing very well.
