[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is so helpful -- thanks all for the insight. I'm wondering about what kind of relaxation techniques you used during the process: massage, acupuncture (not sure how relaxing that is), meditation, exercise? We are both totally wound up and are going to need some serious chilling-out.[/quote] FWIW, I was stressed out and anxious during my IVF cycle and still got pregnant. There is a study that showed that stress/anxiety level had no impact on success (very comforting to me as I had trouble getting my stress under control). I did do a little bit of mindfulness meditation, but I couldn't shell out money for massage or acupuncture. If you want to do those things, do them to make yourself feel better, not because you think you need to do them to increase chances of success. Good luck![/quote]
