Love what stings.

You may be familiar with the study carried out by a Japanese author named Masaru Emoto on the effects of thought and emotion on water.

A brief summary of his study: the thought " The water is now purified, thank you" addressed to a bottle of tap water placed on Masaru Emoto 's desk caused the same water, viewed under a microscope, to change from a state of destructuring to a star-like, geometric crystalline structure. With various shots, he proves that various influences, such as music or words like " thank you" , "gratitude" or "hate", can have an impact on the way we think. gratitude" or " hatred", can cause crystals to react by changing their structure.

I went through ten or so ovarian stimulations where I had to give myself injections. I had to have up to 3 injections a day: some to stimulate the ovaries, others to slow down and trigger ovulation, others to better accept the embryo and finally, a daily injection to thin the blood.

I saw a clear difference between the times when I was reluctant and fearful of all those injected drugs, and the cycles when I was in a state of acceptance and hope.

After a while, I got to thinking: since it had been proven that our thoughts could make water react, surely it was possible to do the same with medication. Before each injection, I would take the syringe in my hand and send it positive thoughts.

Unfortunately, I'm not going to be able to prove to you the effect of my thoughts with pictures, but I do know that I no longer had any side effects and I assimilated the treatment wonderfully.

Of course, it's hard to convince yourself that you like the chemistry you're taking, especially when it involves injections. But why not give it a try? What have you got to lose?

You have the choice of the famous glass half-empty or half-full. It's obvious that you're forced to take a path you'd like to avoid. The fact that you have to go through assisted reproduction is hard to live with and far from a quiet ride. But at least you have the chance to benefit from medical advances in this field, to help you realize your dream of becoming a mother.

So try to love this path and all that goes with it, to put all the chances on your side. I assure you that a positive attitude is already half the success, as illustrated by the image above!
