My hypnofertility book arrived!!!

I do get stupidly excited about each new avenue I try in the quest of TTC. When I heard the postman drop something heavy through the letterbox this morning I squealed and ran downstairs!

I have now read the first few chapters and there are several exercises for both of us to do to get you thinking about what your mind is actually thinking. They are stupid things that I didnt realise I thought about but for example...

can I carry on doing my job when im pregnant (I work on a lot of contaminated land sites)?
what mess will I come back to at work after a years maternity leave?
will it upset my sister in law who had a failed attempt at IVF?
will my mother in law interfere the way she did over our wedding (religion issues)?
will I look like a sack of potatoes with a bump as im far heavier than I would like?
will my depression return with having a baby? !!!!!!!

Oh my goodness, they all sound so stupid but I never realised I actually think about this stuff and I could actually be psychologically blocking myself getting pregnant !!! Do I sound like a madwoman???

We are going on holiday this evening so I may take the book with us and work through it a little more whilst sitting by the pool - nice!! I shall update you (well all one of you so far!!) when im back next week.
