Massage

[candymycandy]

I am worrying over nothing here as usual. But.. In theory, if I conceived after DTD yesterday and had a massage on this coming Friday (a normal back neck and shoulder, not a pregnancy one) could that do any damage? Obviously I'd barely be preggers but I just want to relax and get one done without worrying!

I miscarried a few weeks ago (so shouldn't really have had unprotected sex so soon but I'm so desperate to conceive), so am a massive panicker about everything!

I've just read this back and realise I sound really stupid!

Thanks for any help ladies xx

Definitely you are not sounding stupid to me! Ivam a holistic therapist so able to answer your question.

Firstly you are right to be concerned. Massage is not something to take lightly although many people do so. You do not say what type of massage you are having so I'll talk about the possibilities and the ones I know.

There's no reason not to have a massage or that it should do any harm as long as your therapist is aware that you ttc. If she uses aromatherapy oils on you ttc will have an affect on the oils she uses, but that will be it. If you have conceived then as you say lo be so well padded and barely there that the physical side shouldn't be a problem yet. However due to your mc concerns and how soon afterwards I wouod suggest that stomach massage be avoided until a couple of months after the event.
