Good oils, vitamins, healthy diets, green tea, lots of water etc are all great on a physical level, but what role does your emotional state play on your ability to conceive and sustain a pregnancy?
I was just wondering, as I believe my fragile emotional state 6 months ago (we moved house from the country back to the city which involved a huge personal adjustment and a range of emotions, have had financial issues, had to give up a beloved pet etc) may have contributed to my having a miscarriage. The stress and emotions ran around inside my body contributing to feelings of uneasiness and sadness...then ofcourse, I had to deal with the grief and loss of my miscarriage. I also grappled with depression and was on anti d's for 10 months when my daughter was 2, she is now 4, and weaned off them just prior to our move, not knowing the move and miscarriage would be waiting in store. Boy am I glad to see the back of 2005!
We wanted to start TTC soon after, but decided to let things settle and get Christmas and New Years out of the way but now I am facing the ill health of my beloved and faithful 13 year old dog......
We are not using any contraception at the moment but I still feel pretty sad and emotional alot of the time.....does emotional stress contribute to lack of fertility and ability to sustain a pregnancy?
