I’ve described to you before how tormenting I always find the last week before my expected period, the anxiety it’s caused me… But yesterday I heard of a very different (and way more positive) perspective to those days, which I will definitely try to adopt!
This is how it went:
The week before your period is due, ovulation has already happened (to most of us). Therefore conception and perhaps even implantation has also already happened, if they were going to happen that month. So now you can sit back and relax, settle into your baby bubble and enjoy the “licence to dream”. Pregnant until proven otherwise!
There is no reason to believe I would not be pregnant so why not to enjoy the hope while it’s there? If it turns out to be false hope, I will get disappointed but I would anyway, right?!
The emotional rollercoaster between hope and despair is exhausting. There is no point in feeling miserable BEFORE the negative so let’s stay POSITIVE.
I don’t believe you can get pregnant from the “power of thought” but surely positive thinking should help to keep me happy and sane during the Project Baby 🙂
Happy thoughts and bright yellow flowers!
