The Stirrup Queen, Mel, posted re: a new study in Fertility and Sterility that seems to suggest that relaxing=pregnancy. Go over to her blog and read it: she comments on the study and on its subsequent media coverage better than I could!

I hate it when people tell us to relax, it's been 10 years, no amount of relaxing is going to help lol.
How not to stress?
Scary.
Yep, just read that post...
She says it best.
Yes, that study was (typically) sort of irresponsibly represented in the media. Due to the spin on it, it gives more leverage to the opinion that infertility is the fault of the woman (even if it's the man) in question. Also, it gives insurance companies more reasons to deny IF coverage. One commenter on the stirrup queen's blog suggested that insurance companies should be covering week long spa trips, if curing infertility was that easy.
