It's only natural to worry about the 'what ifs', but these thoughts don't serve us too well.
Each time I catch myself thinking negatively (and believe me I have many of those moments!) I take a step back and remind myself that I'm worrying about something that hasn't happened yet and may never happen. I'm wasting precious time on negative thoughts, so I remind myself to be present and focus on the good things that are happening, e.g. that I'm taking positive steps forward to have a baby rather than 'what if I am an eternal infertile'. And then I tell myself to lighten up and think about the good things I have in my life.
Sometimes this is all easier said than done, especially when AF arrives, but I know that if I spend too much time worrying then I'm not actually achieving anything. I'm just putting myself into a self-induced state of distress, which isn't good for me or my future bubba.
