When you're pregnant after IVF, you’re likely beaming with joy while at the same time trying to keep negative, worrisome thoughts in check. 

If you’re like so many of the fertility patients I see, then you may be hyper-aware of your body, emotions and sensitive to the what-ifs of pregnancy after fertility treatment. 

Now you’re pregnant, and yes, you may have dreamed of this moment for quite some time. But it’s okay not to love every second of being pregnant. You are not alone! 

And you do not have to manage these feelings by yourself or with the help of Google (In fact, please make a pact with me right now that you’ll do your best to avoid Google).

Save yourself the heartache and talk to me, your OBGYN or tune into today's podcast episode where I'm sharing all about what to expect, and how to navigate the first few months of being pregnant after IVF.
