Pregnancy and Fibromyalgia

Are you wondering if your chronic pain and chronic fatigue will be better or worse during pregnancy? If you'll experience a fibromyalgia flare up after delivery? What nursing with fibromyalgia might be like? Have you thought about what pain relief options you'll utilise during pregnancy? Whether yoga is a helpful tool during pregnancy with fibromyalgia?When Melissa became pregnant with her first son, her disappointment at the lack of resources about pregnancy with fibromyalgia inspired her to share her experiences and research as new information became available.In 2016, while pregnant with her second son, she utilised this information and found pregnancy much easier than before. Each year since then she has been creating and sharing resources and information on her blog and supporting women through the Pregnancy with Fibromyalgia Facebook group. This book is the ultimate compilation of all she has learnt.With a passion for research, health and wellness, Melissa combines her findings (both research and anecdotal evidence) with personal experience. "I found Melissa to write in a down-to-earth way that was engaging and encouraging, giving useful, manageable advice that you can actually use. Most importantly, I think, was the sense of support and hope she garners that you can indeed manage whatever life throws at you, that you can survive pregnancy and the ups and downs it may entail. I find this to be an invaluable resource and in inspirational source of encouragement, whether you know someone / a partner who deals with fibromyalgia who is pregnant, or whether you're thinking of having a baby or are currently pregnant."-CazInvisibly me (invisiblyme.com)Melissa Reynolds shares her journey through her blog Melissa vs Fibromyalgia. She lives in Auckland, New Zealand, with her husband and soon to be four young sons.
