Spin-off to Stress and TTC: DESTRESSING
We've all heard it before...healthy diet and exercise coupled with minimal stress can increase your chances of baby.
How do you find ways to relax and de-stress?

Re: Spin-off to Stress and TTC: DESTRESSING
I go from one extreme to the other. If I need to clear my mind I go to the driving range and hit golf balls or play a quick 9 hole course OR
I'm a "lounger", so sitting outside (yard or by water) reading a book.
It really depends on the "type" of stress

It all depends on the type of stress but these are my tops
1) gardening
2) going out for a walk or just sitting in the back
3) going by the lake, beach or any body of water
4) excercise
5) shopping

Re: Spin-off to Stress and TTC: DESTRESSING
I love yoga...it totally destresses me. Other things that help are doing some work(fun work) for my invitation biz, taking the dog for a walk, going to the gym...or staying off LIF TTC..which I think I am going to start soon b/c the more I am on here the crazier I get...I should O next week and have our first IUI so I need to stop reading and obsessing.

Re: Spin-off to Stress and TTC: DESTRESSING
mani's and pedi's.. I haven't done that in a whild becuase money is tight and because I am so stressed.. I bit off all my fingernails  But last summer it really helped me to get a mani/pedi around the time of O.. plus I felt prettier and that always helped with the bding.

Re: Spin-off to Stress and TTC: DESTRESSING
I love to take walks and go shopping. I have also started running again and I am finding that runs help me too.
