Allow Yourself to Make a Fresh, New Start
You CAN fall pregnant against the odds ...
After a few years of trying naturally with no success, I under went several rounds of fertility treatment. Unfortunately, it didn't work for me. Although there was nothing wrong with me, I still couldn't fall pregnant.
By the time I was 28 I was emotionally exhausted and had pretty much given up hope. My periods remained erratic and painful but for the last year they'd stopped completely. I had tried everything but got nowhere.
So what did I have to lose? I joined the program and after signing up online, the company's founder, Narelle Stegehuis, called me. It was great. She pieced everything together and for once everything made sense!
I cried when I got off the phone, it was a turning point for me. At last I felt empowered and motivated again. She emailed me through a comprehensive list of foods that were fertile friendly and I started taking my tonics.
I found I was eating all the wrong foods for my body. Broccoli and cauliflower are both a big NO for me along with lamb, three of my staple diet foods! I loved the fact that I learnt what to eat to balance my body and making every day changes mad me feel strong.
Within the first month, I got my period back. "It's working," I cried. The weight slowly started melting off, my period pain improved and I felt better than ever before.
Within a few short months I began to feel nauseous - my God I thought, the hair on the back of my neck rising. I can't be...
Rushing to the pharmacy, I bought six pregnancy tests. Back home, I started screaming when the blue line appeared. Every test was positive. I was pregnant. Calling my partner I told him the good news. He could barely understand me, I was so excited. He was just as thrilled as I was. When I told Narelle, she was so happy for me. "Targeting the underlying causes with strategic changes has unbelievable results" she said.
On May 28, 2007, I gave birth to my beautiful baby boy, Tane. Ever since I was a teenager, my life had been ruled by hormones. Now I know that it is true that you can take control and give yourself a fresh start. So what are you waiting for?
