I totally understand the stress you're referring to in relation to LTTTC. I combat it with walks, acupuncture, warm baths, reading and meditation. I attend meditation in my workplace every Thursday morning which I love and I try to do it at home a few times a week also. A CD that was introduced to me is called "Moving On 1" by Carmen Warrington & Margaret Pinkerton. I think it's available on iTunes or you can google their names and try to buy it online. I really like it and find it relevant to IVF as there is a meditation relating to health and seeing positive lights around parts of your body. It's a good way to slow down your breathing and change your thinking to a more positive state.
I also had some sticks little silver roller balls stuck in the tops of my ears yesterday by my acupuncturist to press when I am feeling stressed.
Hope this helps - if anything it should help you to become aware of when you are stressed - I hadn't realised how aggro and uptight I could get in certain situations until I started it! Good luck with it all.

Thanks for the info on the CD. I found it on itunes but only under the artist name of Carmen Warrington. When I put both names in it couldn't find anything. There is also a Moving on 2 and a CD called Today I will... guided meditations for peace and relaxation.
Seph, I too find that I can get very stressed very easily, so thanks for asking about this. I am going to give it a try.
I have also found a relaxation CD from Blackmores. I think it came in a pack at the supermarket with some vitamins, vit E cream etc.
