TTC was consuming my life— until these 3 things that shifted everything for me 🤰🏻
1. Acupuncture — I’m a huge fan of Chinese medicine and I have seen acupuncture make a positive impact in my own hormonal acne journey & fertility journey, as well as my clients who are balancing hormones, TTC, going through IVF, and dealing with perimenopause. If you are in Tampa, .ashleyheintz is the best and is known as the baby maker for a reason 😉
2. Mentally shifting my focus on the present and making plans for fun things now helped reduce stress. It’s so easy to get caught up in thoughts like “I’m not going to buy this dress bc I might be pregnant next month” etc. and that’s not helpful at all, especially in my case when 6 months went by and I realized I kept putting off my life bc “I might be pregnant.”Just live in the present— buy the dress, schedule the trip, set goals, and focus on having fun > stress 💃🏻 (I know easier said than done but it really makes a positive impact)
3. I wasn’t intentionally putting on weight, but I was intentionally eating a super nutrient-dense, high protein diet with lots of healthy fat and fiber and my hormones and body responded well because I felt stronger and my blood work was perfect 💪🏼
I did all these things after TTC for 6 months, getting fertility testing done and everything coming back normal, taking a 2 month break, then starting TTC again.
This is not medical advice, just a few things that worked for me to take me from being totally consumed by TTC, to living in the present and finally conceiving naturally.
When I work with clients there is a lot more physically that we work on to get someone to the place where these things will also help make a difference, so if you need help with the foundations, that is where to start.
My favorite part about working with clients I that my program is completely personalized to you and your body because we all have unique needs!
If you’re on the TTC journey and feeling totally consumed and stressed, you’re not alone.
Just send me a DM and I’m happy to help 🤍
