The Fertile Mind with Russell Davis

Grieving the life we expected

Another thing not often talked about on the fertility journey is the need to grieve the life we expected. Life can turn out very different to what we expected it to be like. This can create a deep sense of disappointment and grief. In this episode we look at how we move on from this to create the life we want.

About the Show:

I help women and couples remove psychological blocks to getting pregnant. Based on my and my wife’s 10 year fertility journey and the work of my clients I believe too many couples have IVF unnecessarily and that the success rate of IVF is unnecessarily low. We can see how much our mind and emotions played a part in our fertility journey and when we found a place of peace without giving up that’s when the magic happened - we conceived naturally against all odds. I help me clients do the same - remove psychological blocks to getting pregnant naturally or getting the successful IVF outcome they so want. 

 

When I ask women what having a baby will give them they usually say a sense of completeness, love and purpose. It’s our fear of not having these things, a fear of not being enough, worthy that tends to be behind our fear of not having a baby. These limiting beliefs have usually been around since an early age and infertility shines a spotlight on them. Many of my clients have strived for success in their life whether career or other things. That approach doesn’t work for fertility. In fact it puts tension in the body which decreases their chances of success.

 

The podcast is short dose of insight, giving women and couples new perspectives that allows them to see their fertility from the ‘inside-out’. To see help them let go of their insecure thoughts and feelings and connect to their innate wellbeing that knows they are enough and OK whatever happens. This moves having a baby from being a ’need’ to to a desire. It takes the pressure of the process and their mind and body relax into it’s natural flow state. Stress can impact the delicate balance of hormones required for a successful pregnancy.

Fear of Being Pregnant

In this weeks episode we look at something that is not often acknowledged or spoken about on the fertility journey. The fear of being pregnant. There is so much focus on getting pregnant and the fear of not being pregnant the fear of being pregnant is often overlooked.  After all the infertility struggles you finally get the BFP result and then the anxiety can turn up dramatically as you are scared of losing it. Over-analysing every twinge or sensation. How do you let go of this so you can enjoy your pregnancy when you get there?

Get pregnant without 'Project Baby' taking over

The fertility journey can involve a lot of "I can’t" whether not being able to drink as much as you want, have as much coffee as you usually enjoy or even exercise in the way you like to. This can be frustrating and also feel unfair. In this weeks episode we look at how we can let go of the negative aspects of the restrictions and find more flow to getting pregnant and Project Baby.
