After a woman decides upon in vitro fertilization or IVF, she may feel relieved that something is in the offing or she may fear the physical implications cum interventions.

What sort of common emotions and reactions are felt during the two-week wait’ period?
- To start with, there is trepidation, uncertainty as well as pessimism.

- It becomes rather difficult to concentrate on ordinary life, and the woman might start losing interest in things she otherwise enjoyed.
- She might otherwise stay at home more often and avoid going out. Why so? She feels she may have to encounter friends, family, pregnant women, and children which she rather not.

How to cope up with the ‘two-week wait’?
- It is better to avoid pregnancy tests as the chances of a positive result before a late period is rather very slim. Often, even the medications tend to provide false-positive results.
- It is better not to get obsessed with the pregnancy symptoms, thus feeling that pregnant does not necessarily indicate that the woman is pregnant. It is alright to stay hopeful but avoid being obsessed with the idea of a positive outcome.
- It is a good idea to spend 15 to 30 minutes thinking about the pregnancy. Writing down one’s feelings about it, carrying out pregnancy research, or even discussing the issue with one’s partner, friends, and family. The pregnancy thoughts should not overwhelm a woman.
- It is better to stay busy. This would mean working slightly more, going out more, planning meaningful distractions.
- Try some relaxing techniques, such as relaxing exercises, meditation et cetera.
