“If I don’t get my hopes up, I won’t be disappointed.”
Sound familiar?
This mindset is so common in IVF and donor egg IVF and I completely get it. I felt it myself.
But here’s the truth: it’s not protecting you, it’s quietly wearing you down.
Psychologists call it Defensive Pessimism, imagining the worst so you can “prepare” for it.
It can work in short-term events like exams or sports, where you have full control over your performance.
But IVF isn’t a one day event… It's a marathon of uncertainty, waiting, and vulnerability.
Living in worst-case thinking for months:
❌ Drains your emotional resilience
❌ Strains your relationships
❌ Sends the wrong message to your subconscious, training it to allow in fear instead of possibility.
This isn’t about pretending everything will work out.
It’s about finding a neutral, empowered middle ground:
✅ “I’m making space for both hope and acceptance, whichever way this goes.”
You can’t control the outcome, but you can control the environment inside your mind.
That’s where the real power lies and impacts how you respond mentally and physically to the intensity of IVF cycles.
💛 This is exactly what I teach inside my Family Building with Confidence program, combining CBT, hypnotherapy, NLP, and emotional coaching to help you feel steady, supported, and clear through every stage of IVF or donor egg IVF.
This is a 12 week guidance program, with 6 x 1 hour sessions 1:1 tailored to what you are going through on the day.
A 12 module program to introduce you to donor egg IVF mindset topics and practical coping skills as well as whats app support in between sessions.
Soooo much value, my clients are renewing and renewing to keep the support going as they progress into all of the next steps.
