Baby Dreamtime,

Firstly, I am so sorry that this cycle did not work out the way you wanted it to. I really hope and pray that the New Year will bring you your BFP.

In regards to feeling positive - I think this is really a personal choice and will depend on your circumstances. For me, the cycle that resulted in my BFP, I did make a concerted effort to be positive. I introduced acupuncture into my cycle which helped my stress levels immensely. I went into the cycle with the thought that I would do everything in my power to remain positive. I regularly imagined receiving the phone call from the clinic advising of my BFP and how that would make me feel. Every time I felt a negative thought entering my head I would focus on that phone call.

Now in saying all that - do I think that being positive made the difference? Well all I can say is that it did for me... but then my answer would be different if the result was different.

I am naturally a positive person and do not cope well with negativity so this is why I made this choice. I was lucky as it worked for me, but I am under no illusions that it is the only reason the cycle worked. We also happened upon the right embryo, my health was spot on... the stars really just aligned for us.

I wish you all the best in your future cycles.
