Vanessa’s Success Story

After a very painful miscarriage Vanessa decided that she would take important steps to prepare her body for pregnancy. Today she shares how her miscarriage made her feel, the steps she took to prepare for pregnancy and some good news…

Vanessa“I’m not even sure how I came upon the natural fertility website, but I feel absolutely blessed to have stumbled upon it.”

Name: Vanessa

Age: 31

Number of years trying to get pregnant? 2 years

Feeling Blessed…

What was your fertility journey prior to finding Natural-Fertility-Info.com and the NaturalFertilityShop.com?

I was one of those women that just said it will happen when it happens without preparing my mind, body and soul for this this amazing journey. Back in October 2011, I got pregnant after trying for 6 months and I thought how wonderful this is and went along with my life as normal. It was in January 2012, when I was 19 weeks pregnant that I lost my son. The reasons are still unknown. We thought after the first trimester was over we would be safe. Life could never prepare you for dealing with what came next… the emptiness, sadness, anger… and the list goes on and on.

What information and products made the difference for you?

I’m not even sure how I came upon the natural fertility website, but I feel absolutely blessed to have stumbled upon it. First and foremost, the information was so helpful. I spent hours browsing the different topics- and also sharing with my husband things that pertained to him. I included the link on my facebook page and got a few ‘thank you for sharing.’

Which products did you take and for how long?

The product I took was the fertility cleanse (last month July). I followed the instructions and kept with the program for the full 30 days or so.

What changes and benefits did you experience from taking the products?

Right after taking the product, I didn’t really physically different, but I knew for sure I was getting rid of the toxins in my body. Not only did I take the fertility cleanse, I made a few changes. The website shared so much information of the toxins we are surrounded by. Last month, we started buying lots of fruits and veggies that were organic. We ate wild caught fish, organic chicken, grass fed beef (but only in small amounts). We invested in a juicer and juiced at least 2 to 3 times a week. Our juice included lots of fertility friendly fruits and veggies. We also both started taking raw maca powder in our teas. We also dumped our cleaning products and went for natural products and home-made where necessary. Lastly, I did the self fertility massage a few times (not what was recommended, because I am a busy working woman and didn’t have the time at the end of the day.)

What is some advice would you give others going through their fertility journey?

The advice I would give others going through this is the same I read on this website… I don’t remember where exactly I read it but it said something to the effect of “would you put your baby in a dirty crib? So then why would you put your baby in a dirty womb?” This was my big light bulb moment that I needed to change my habits and my environment (especially those that were in my control.) Most of all, if you are spiritual or not, stay strong and positive. I believe in God and I told him that I trust his timing. I have Faith in Him.

Is there anything else you would like to share?

Vanessasmbaby

Yes, I would like to share that last night I took a home pregnancy test and got a positive result. I have not shared this with anyone in my family yet and am staying strong and positive for a successful pregnancy. I wish all of you the best with your fertility journey. Most of all, I thank Hethir and her staff for all the work they put into the website and sharing information to woman who sometimes feel hopeless. You are all blessed in my book and may you continue to Bless other lives.

Update May 2014:

“Hi, I just wanted to follow up on my success story: “Vanessa’s Pregnancy Preparation & Blessing.” I want to let everyone know that on March 4th, my son Victhor was born. My pregnancy was high risk and Victhor came at 32 weeks gestational age weighing 3 lb 10 ounces. But nevertheless, he was born healthy and strong. I tell everyone I meet with a fertility issue or not about this site and about the useful knowledge and products available. Keep up the great work guys and I wish all of you success in your journey.”

🌱 Ashwagandha is one of my favorite herbs for stress support while trying to conceive. 

It is easy to use and the calming effects can be felt pretty quickly after starting the herb. 

➡️ The hormonal support results take a bit longer, as with any hormone supportive herb, but is wonderful for both women and men who are experiencing high stress and hormone imbalances. 

Type ASH in the comments below and I will share which Ashwagandha I recommend and how to use it for fertility support. 👇👇

🧪 Xenohormones are chemicals that mimic the effects of hormones in the body. 

They can disrupt the endocrine system, which controls the production, transport, and function of hormones. 🚫

This can lead to a variety of health problems, including fertility issues. 

Examples of xenohormones include certain pesticides, plastics, and phthalates. 🕯️

Exposure to these chemicals can affect the production of hormones such as estrogen and testosterone, which play key roles in fertility. 

Xenohormones can also affect ovulation and implantation of a fertilized egg, leading to infertility. 

It would be best to avoid these chemicals as much as possible.

The body is always giving us feedback to what is happening inside. How regularly you go to the bathroom shares a lot about your digestive health.... as does a bloated belly or gas. Your period or monthly cycle can share a lot about your hormonal state. Your skin can share how your liver is doing. And so on. What have you learned from listening to your body?

🕯️Chemicals in candles, such as paraffin and phthalates, can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) when burned. 

Some research suggests that certain VOCs, such as phthalates, may disrupt hormone balance by mimicking estrogen and other hormones in the body. 🚫

It’s always a good idea to choose candles made from natural materials, such as beeswax or soy wax, which produce fewer VOCs. 🐝

Preparing for pregnancy is one of the best steps you can take for a healthy pregnancy and child. Here are some steps to help you get started…. 👇

1️⃣ Eat a diet high in fiber. More fruits and veggies

Fiber helps the body to get rid of excess hormones and fruits and veggies are packed with fiber. They also are very hydrating and have lots of nutrients. All are useful for someone with heavy cycles. 

2️⃣ Learn about your fertility cycle through tracking and charting

Fertility charting will help you to understand your current hormonal state, when or if you are ovulating and other information about your cycle that will help to bring clarity to your fertility path. 

3️⃣ Fertility Cleanse 1-2x per year

The first phase of the Fertility Cleanse is a great way to help support the liver in it’s natural ability to get rid of excess hormones. The second phase focuses on the uterus and helping the uterus to cleanse and increase circulation.

💡It can be completely normal for your menstrual cycle to vary in length slightly from month to month! 

Ovulation may come a day before or a day later even in normal some cycles. 

We actually expect to see natural variations between menstrual cycles. 

Early ovulation can be concerning, however, when/if it consistently happens.

When in doubt get it checked out. 

One of the most common reasons I suggest women to see their doctors is when they are experiencing  a heavy period that doesn’t stop after 5-7 days and has heavy flow. 

There are many different reasons this could be happening, but we first want to make sure it isn’t something that requires medical assistance before going on to healthy lifestyle support.

🌱 One of my favorite ways to support fertility and hormone health is through herbs. 

Over the past 20+ years that I have been an herbalist I have seen what herbs can do to help turn someone’s health around. 

When it comes to fertility there are a lot of different herbs that you can use. But they all have different actions. There is no one herb that fits all for fertility. 

That is one of the reasons I make herbal blends & formulas. 

Three of my favorite herbs are vitex, maca and shatavari, but they each have different effects on the body. 

So the key to success with fertility herbs is to first figure out what is going on in your body and then you can pick the right herbal formula for you. 

You can do this by charting your fertility (I have a lot of posts about fertility charting on my feed as well as my website) and also paying attention to your period. 🩸

👇READ THIS if you have a regular period but still haven’t gotten pregnant…. 

The answer is YES. The menstruation phase of a monthly fertility cycle is only one stage of the cycle. 

There are many other times of the month that are even more important like: 

🌸 Follicular phase: When the lining is growing and follicles are maturing

🌸 Ovulation: When the egg is released

🌸 Implantation: When the fertilized egg implants

🌸 Luteal phase: The time period between ovulation and the next cycle needs to be long enough for implantation to occur.
