Often I hear that people just want to feel like themselves again going through infertility struggles.They have literally turned into people they no longer recognise and are miserable all the time. So it makes sense they would look back to the past to the last known point where they felt okay and yearn to have that back.The trouble is, looking back never has the answers we need.Today I want to walk you through how to move forward and incorporate all you have been through to date, rather than yearning for an old self that we can never again be.Bella xxPS.

The Mindfulness space is a wonderful thing that made so many more people aware of how they could help themselves through difficult things in life.BUT far too many people are being sold the idea of a quick fix and end up practicing toxic positivity.They meditate everyday, but still spend the majority of it anxious and trying to be a perfectionist.They say mantra, that make themselves feel okay for a minute, but ignore the fact that their unconscious mind is vehemently disagreeing with the words they are trying to get themselves to believe.They do gratitude journals and they know they should be grateful, but it fails to really shift them for most of the day to a place of feeling more at peace.All these tools are exceptional but not when you don't know why you are using them, how they work or have addressed the underlying foundational things you need to address first.Today I want to address why some of these tools may be holding you back because you aren't at a place where they are effective yet.Bella xxPS.

Male Fertility Issues account for 50% of infertility issues - and yet, to date, there is relatively few resources and options for men to get the same support as women do with the health and mental health sides of fertility.Moreover, what about the other 50% of the men who are supporting their partners through IVF and other treatments who desperately want to be fathers too?So I thought it was about time to promote some amazing Male fertility coaches in the space.Bella xxAbout Shaun Greenaway - Male Fertility Coach and AdvocateHaving been diagnosed with Azoospermia in 2018, Shaun experienced the heartache of infertility, as well as the shame and secrecy attached to facing this as a man. Now the proud father to twins conceived via the use of donor sperm, Shaun shares his story via Instagram And as an accredited coach, Shaun helps men navigate the emotion, pain and confusion of a fertility struggle.And you can find him here:  Check out his websiteAbout Ciaran Hannington - The Male Fertility PTIn 2011, Ciaran was told  briefly and bluntly that he was deemed infertile and there was nothing he  could do to improve his fertility health.After going through all the emotions, Ciaran set about improving his own fertility health drastically and went on to have two beautiful children. His mission now as The Male Fertility PT is to work with as many men as possible, to support and educate them on how to enhance and improve their health to optimise their fertility and help achieve their goal of fatherhood.He is passionate about starting a positive discussion about male fertility and breaking down societal stigma linked to the topic.You can find Ciaran on instagramor through is website.You can find both men waxing lyrical on their podcast The Male Fertility Podcast on the streaming services where you usually listen to them.PS.

Warning:  This podcast is about a real miscarriage and involves details that can be disturbing and quite graphic for some listeners.  But that's also the point.  It's about the realities of what someone go through.Miscarriages are surprisingly common, but one of the most heart-breaking things you can go through.And no two miscarriages are the same.  Some you might barely notice and others are extremely physical.And they can be very emotionally and mentally taxing.But I think it is important to be really open about miscarriages and exactly what they can be like sometimes.  Because first trimester miscarriages can be far more physically demanding than some people would have you realise.So I wanted to give an honest account of a miscarriage that I went through at the 9 week mark and the layers of it that made it so difficult to deal with.Physically, mentally and emotionally.It is graphic in nature so if you think you will find this triggering please do yourself a favour and don't listen.Bella xxPS.

This is a topic that is close to my heart and the more I speak to other women who are experiencing infertility, the more I have hard that many people have had trouble with ovulation testing.  I could NEVER get them to work for me.We all want to get certainty about when we ovulate so we can be sure that we are maximising on our fertile window each month.So today I am talking about ovulation testing, why you might not be able to get them to work for you, why I don't think you should rely on them long term and what I would do if you have no idea when you ovulate but want to get some peace of mind.Bella xxPS.

I often get asked about many different steps of the fertility process.  How do you know when it is time to do IUI or IVF?  How do you get your head around that you need some help? How do you process that you cannot have children on your own timeframe when everyone else around you is able to have kids when they want?And it often means that we need to go back to basics.And that basic is, actually understanding and accepting your diagnosis or situation in the first place.  So many of us just run headlong into treatments and all kinds of alternative therapies trying to force the process but with sadness and heartache and trauma in their hearts.Today is a different look at what the first REAL step is in answering these questions.Bella xxPS.

I ran an amazing 3 day event that I really got a lot of joy out of really helping amazing women like yourself to find their calm in their journey and TAKE BACK CONTROL.As part of the event, we had a great Q&A session.  And I loved these questions so much, I thought I would record them for you for the podcast too.So strap yourself in for real questions from real people on the fertility journey!I answer the following questions today:1. Do you have any advice for couples where one partner is the worrier (me) and the other isn’t sure how to be supportive? It feels lonely to be worrying alone, but I know more worrying isn’t the solution.2. Do you have any tips for being in denial about maybe having to have IVF? It’s not something I thought I would ever be on my path but I struggle accepting that fact even though it’s a good thing3.  How do you know it’s time to accept the IVF route?4. Tips on how to decide and be at peace with the next ‘right step’?5. I'm struggling to decide what the right next steps are for me, but then I get so worried about time slipping away and this race against the clock. Any advice for getting past the constant worry about timeline?6. Do you have a favorite activity to take the place of the constant googling?7. How do you respond to friends/co-workers/family members that offer advice in the form of supplements and other things they suggest you try to help you get pregnant? I know they have the best intentions but it's not helpful to hear how you can 'fix' yourself if you just took another pill, etc.8.  Why is it every time I start a new cycle i get this kind of urgency feeling? Urgency to change something in my life, it could be anything from need to change my diet and have to buy new furniture.  It doesn’t make sense most of the time but at that moment it’s like I’ve got to find something to fix.9.  How do you deal with friends being pregnant before you and jealousy and guilt?I hope you get amazing value out of today.Enjoy xxBellaPS.
