Today is 🧠✨🩵

We want to share some practical tips that you can use either throughout your pregnancy or your fertility journey to ensure you’re prioritising your mental health!

Going through fertility treatments can be emotionally, mentally and physically demanding. It is important to care for your wellbeing throughout this process:

💬 Build a strong support network: Lean on your partner, close friends, or a support group of people who understand IVF. Sharing the journey reduces feelings of isolation.

🤝 Set boundaries with others: Decide how much you want to share about your treatment. It’s okay to limit conversations or avoid questions that feel stressful.

🧘‍♀️ Focus on self-care beyond IVF: Engage in activities you enjoy, reading, hobbies, or spending time in nature, so that life doesn’t feel defined only by treatment.

We also know that pregnancy can take a toll on your physical and mental wellbeing so it’s important to take care of yourself throughout these 9 months:

💤 Listen to your body and rest when needed: Pregnancy can be physically and emotionally draining. Give yourself permission to slow down, nap, and adjust your daily routine without guilt.

💦 Eat well & stay hydrated: Nourishing your body with balanced meals and enough fluids supports not only your physical health but also your mood and energy levels.

🗣️ Seek professional support when needed: If you feel overwhelmed, anxious, or low, talk to your healthcare provider, midwife, or a mental health professional. Reaching out is a sign of strength, not weakness.

At The Portland Hospital Outpatients we are dedicated to providing care and support to all patients. Please do not hesitate to reach out🩵
