Pregnancy Over 40, Spring and Fertility

Since spring has sprung and, along with it (at least where I live), some very nice weather, I thought Id share an article that connects spring with everything from elevated moods to increased fertility. Read more:

Scientists know that when seasons change, the retina — the part of the eye connected to the brain by the optic nerve — naturally reacts to variations in the amount of daylight. This triggers hormonal changes.

Particularly important is the adjustment in melatonin, a hormone that affects our mood and how we sleep. As a result of light changes, the body naturally produces less melatonin during spring, causing a lift in mood, a reduced desire to sleep, an increase in sexual appetite and a need to eat less.

New findings published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, by researchers at the University of Massachusetts medical school, have also proved that activity levels rise as the days get longer. After analysing the exercise habits and food intakes of almost 600 men and women over a year, Professor Yunsheng Ma found that most subjects gained up to 2lb (1kg) in winter; they ate lots of carbohydrate and exercised little. Come spring, however, activity levels soared and calorie intake dropped. It seemed that the only reason for this was the change in season.

This is partly a psychological effect but also physical. Evolutionary biologists believe that our bodies are programmed to be more active as the hormone mix changes with more light. Released from the chemical messages that make us withdraw in winter, the body feels energised, ready to hunt for food and to give birth.

Spring is also the time, supposedly, when a young man’s thoughts turn to sex. And it is true that men are more fertile at this time of year than any other. Ironically, though, this is because levels of actual sexual activity seem to drop in spring. The less sex men have, the more they save up their sperm and the greater their sperm count when they do have sex.

Professor Michael Smolensky, a chronobiologist from the University of Texas specialising in the relationship of biology to the rhythms of hours, days and months, says that statistics indicate that sexual activity in human beings is much greater in autumn,. “When we look at couples who have kept sex diaries and single males who have kept their own data, sexual activity is rather low in spring,” Smolensky says.

This fits with studies that have shown conclusively that levels of testosterone, the male sex hormone, are higher in late summer and early autumn than spring, so that’s when men have the greatest sex drive and when conception rates are high.

But sperm counts do peak in March, April and May. Smolensky says: “In sexually active males, sperm count is affected by two factors, environmental temperature and sexual activity. When men are sexually active, sperm count goes down; when they’re not sexually active, they’re not using it, so it goes up.” That could explain Smolensky’s findings that there are more unplanned babies conceived during spring than any other time of year. There are more sperm around, so despite less sex, one’s more likely to hit the mark.

Spring not only improves our mood and energy levels, it can protect our teeth and bones. On the first few sunny days of spring many people feel the urge to take off those winter togs and do a bit of prancing in the sunshine. This is in response to the fact that for several months our bodies have been starved of vitamin D, essential for healthy bones and teeth. And we make it only when our skins are exposed to sunlight. We’re craving a top-up.

 Uterine Scarring May Hurt Fertility

I did have a few D and Cs after my miscarriages, and it always worried me to be undergoing this surgery.
 The instrument used almost resembles a coat hanger and if its hard to believe the many women dont walk away with some scarring. This article talks about "Ashermans symdrome" which can cause infertility if not treatted. Read more:

From the article:

SEE ALSO: D&C AFTER MISCARRIAGE (getpregnantover40.com)

MICHAELA KHATIB was told by eight different doctors that she would never have a second child after developing Ashermans syndrome (AS).

Nine years later baby Jasmine proved them wrong.

Schoolteacher Michaela, 40, mother to Jasmine, now 22 months, as well as 10-year-old Emily, campaigns to raise awareness for this little-known condition which often goes undiagnosed and leaves women fearing they are infertile.

It is believed that as many as 3,500 UK women develop AS each year but only a tiny percentage are diagnosed and even fewer receive treatment.

AS is caused when scar tissue forms in the womb following a surgical procedure such as a caesarean section or a D&C (dilation and curettage), which is carried out after a miscarriage or to remove a retained placenta or to terminate a pregnancy.

Basal Temperature Charts Measure Thyroid Function As Well As Ovulation

Guest Post By Judy Ford

Basal temperature is frequently measured by women wishing to discover when and if they are ovulating normally. Women also use this to discover the best time to have sex and there are various products that promise success.
Keeping a basal temperature chart can be a very informative exercise and is a far cheaper alternative than expensive hormonal tests. Strangely enough, although it is so low tech the humble temperature chart can reveal a great deal more useful information than many laboratory tests. One of these outcomes is the diagnosis of previously unsuspected thyroid problems. Despite being quite common, thyroid disease can often remain undiagnosed for many years and can be a source of general health, psychological and reproductive problems. Clinicians other than Endocrinologists seem to be generally tuned out to the possibility of thyroid problems despite its prevalence and importance.
Women suffering from thyroid problems have reduced fertility. The thyroid gland is the controller of our metabolism and its normal functioning is critical to the health of our bodies. In some ways we can think of the thyroid as the conductor of the orchestra of the body, in the sense that it sets the correct time and rhythm. One of its critical functions is to control body temperature. Low thyroid function is characterized by tiredness, weight gain, feeling the cold, depression, slowed reflexes, coarsening and dryness of the skin and deepening of the voice especially when tired.
My first experience of diagnosing hypothyroidism (low thyroid function) happened thirty years ago when I was asked to counsel a woman who was both infertile and depressed. She had been receiving treatment for her conditions from both a psychiatrist and fertility specialist. When she arrived I noticed that she had a large goiter and asked who was treating her thyroid problem? She in turn said "What thyroid problem"? Neither specialist had observed this most obvious symptom because it was not in their area of specialization!

SEE ALSO: THYROID, INFERTILITY AND MISCARRIAGE  (getpregnantover40.com)
 and
DOES FERTILITY CHARTING WORK? (getpregnantover40.com)


Another case came when I was jointly advising an infertility client with a naturopath. In this case I observed low temperatures on the basal temperature chart and asked whether the thyroid function had been tested. The naturopath had no idea that these low temperatures indicated a thyroid problem so was pleased that we had shared the information as a learning experience.
Low thyroid function can be caused by iodine deficiency, which is correctable by supplementing the diet. If the temperature is only slightly low and no other symptoms are present then the condition might be cured by eating seaweed and eating Sushi is a great way of doing this. However low thyroid function is often the result of an inherited autoimmune condition called Hashimotos thyroiditis and must be treated with medication by a Specialist.
It is important to recognise the early signs of thyroid disease as it can lead to both infertility and miscarriage. When a woman is hypothyroid it is still possible for her to become pregnant. If she does, maternal antibodies against the thyroid can cross the placenta and destroy the babys thyroid gland. Babies affected in this way are born with hypothyroidism, which causes a condition known as cretinism. If not treated at birth, the child will have deformed growth and mental retardation.
The other extreme of thyroid disease is the overactive thyroid. The symptoms are loss of weight, feeling hot, profuse sweating and eyes that appear to be about to pop out of their sockets. This is a potentially very dangerous illness and needs immediate treatment. However it is not usually picked up in basal temperature charts.
Dr Judy Ford is an internationally respected geneticist who has undertaken considerable research into the causes of miscarriage, causes of infertility and birth defects. Her research has shown that most problems are preventable through changes to healthy lifestyles and healthy habits.

baby weight loss and gain after birth | GLUTEN INFERTILITY AND MISCARRIAGE

baby weight loss and gain after birth

Gluten May Affect Some Womens Fertility

I keep hearing more and more about how gluten may be the culprit behind infertility and miscarriage.

 Here is an article that explain what gluten is and how it can wreak havoc on your digestive system.

Celiac disease, and gluten intolerance are both known to be important causes of infertility and miscarriage which can easily be remedied by a gluten free diet. Celiac disease can be tested for with a blood test which is relatively accurate as long as you have been consuming gluten regularly in the month or so before the test day. As soon as you cut gluten out of your diet, the volume of of anti-gluten antibodies that your body produces drops, which can make the test misleading.

See Also My Series on Foods For Fertility (www.getpregnantover40.com)

Many women are sensitive to gluten containing grains, but do not have an autoimmune reaction to gluten making testing even more tricky. Gluten sensitivity testing can be expensive and is not usually covered by health insurance. Many women simply decide to try a month or two on a strict gluten free diet to see how they feel. Many times they are pleasantly surprised by both how easy - and enjoyable - a gluten free diet can be, and by how good they feel often in unexpected ways...

Recently one of my fertility coaching clients relayed how she had had a series of unfortunate miscarriages - all preceded by uterine growth retardation - and yet had also had one successful pregnancy which she carried to term. When I raised the issue of celiac testing (uterine growth restriction is common in celiac pregnancies) it turned out that this one miraculous pregnancy was conceived - and carried - during a period on a gluten free diet pursued as a health kick. Gluten can be a powerful saboteur of fertility and fertility can quickly return when it is removed.

pregnancy hormone weight loss diet | WHY BBT CHARTING FOR OVULATION MAY NOT WORK

pregnancy hormone weight loss diet

The BBT method of monitoring fertility has been used for many years by women who either are trying to conceive or by women an couples who are trying to avoid pregnancy.  It reminds me of a joke I heard,
Question: What do you call people who use the rhythm method?
Answer: Parents!
Well the reason that joke came to be is that there is some truth about the unreliability of the BBT charting method.  Of course, I look at this from the standpoint of trying to conceive rather than trying to avoid pregnancy, but either way, this method has a number of pitfalls.  First and foremost, when you take your temperature, what you are looking for is an increase which shows when you have ovulated.  Thats the biggest problem with this method.  Many studies have confirmed that you need to have intercourse BEFORE ovulation.

hcg pregnancy weight loss | ADOPTION MAY NOT BE AN OPTION FOR EVERYONE

hcg pregnancy weight loss

Pregnancy Over 40, Do Not Ask If Youve Considered Adoption

I mean no disrespect to those who are considering adoption or to those who have already adopted.
 Its just that when I was trying so hard to get pregnant, if someone said "have you considered adoption?" it was absolutely devastating. First of all, I never considered adoption. Its not because I have anything against it, its just that I had already been on such a roller coaster ride of ups and downs with infertility and miscarriage, I couldnt even imagine starting a whole new process of paperwork, social workers, home visits, and a birth mother. I just wanted to smack whoever said "have you considered adoption"?

SEE ALSO: SHARING INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR INFERTILITY (getpregnantover40.com)

Ok, enough ranting, its just that when youre certain that you can succeed in getting pregnant, having someone suggest adoption is a slap in the face. Its almost like theyre telling you that you need to move on and "give it up". I kept my struggle with infertility and miscarriage very private for this very reason. I didnt want unsolicited advice. One person who suggested adoption to me was a physician assistant who I saw after one of my miscarriages. She was a quite rough around the edges and bit of a loose cannon. There I was grieving my lost pregnancy and instead of saying something truly consoling, her adoption comment left me feeling like I was at the end of the road. I never went back to that clinic and I now always insist on seeing a doctor, not a PA.

Anyway, I should mention that Ive known many people who have happily adopted. I know people whove adopted older children, I known people whove done foreign adoptions, and Ive seen many open adoptions where the birth mother is very much a part of the childs life. It can work beautifully. Its just that considering adoption needs to be your decision. Every person/couple struggling with infertility knows that adoption is an option. I guess most people who ask if youve considered it just want to help. Let them know that you understand your options and youll arrive at your own decision when the time is right.

baby lose weight during growth spurt | D C MAY CAUSE SCARRING ASHERMANS SYNDROME

baby lose weight during growth spurt

Trying To Get Pregnant Naturally?  A D&C May Cause Scarring and Affect Fertility

Ever heard of Ashermans syndrome? It can be caused by a previous D & C which can be done for a number of reasons from heavy bleeding to an incomplete miscarriage.

SEE ALSO: DO YOU NEED A D&C AFTER MISCARIAGE? (Getpregnantover40.com)

 I recall being advised to have a D & C after one of my miscarriages. I didnt want to because I didnt really want any sharp instruments inside my one and only uterus, but I wound up having it anyway because it appeared that the pregnancy tissue was still growing even though there was no heartbeat and the fetus wasnt viable. Here is more information about how adhesions can affect your fertility:

From the article:

Ashermans syndrome is a type of adhesion - where bands of scar-like tissue form inside the body between two surfaces, causing them to stick together. Adhesions are a common problem, affecting 93 per cent of patients who undergo surgery.

All the abdominal and pelvic organs - which are most susceptible to adhesions - are wrapped together in a clear membrane, the peritoneum. When this is traumatised either by infection or surgery, it triggers an inflammatory response, stimulating the growth of fibrous scar tissue. Ashermans is the term given to adhesions in the womb.

The problem is triggered by a dilation and curettage (D&C), a standard procedure used to clear the womb after a miscarriage, or when the placenta is retained after childbirth or a termination, says Adrian Lower, a consultant gynaecologist and one of only a handful of Ashermans specialists in the UK.

An ultrasound revealed parts of the placenta had embedded into Sophies womb. Left untreated, it could lead to serious infection

He says: During the procedure, a spoon-shaped instrument [a curette] is used to scrape the uterus lining.

Its thought that Ashermans occurs when this is done too forcefully, he says. Around 100,000 procedures are carried out each year, with five per cent resulting in Ashermans.

pregnancy losing weight first trimester | FERTILITY CHARTING BBT MAY NOT WORK

pregnancy losing weight first trimester

I know many women and couples rely on fertility charting to determine the best days to conceive.  I tried this method for a while but I wasnt very successful with it.  I found it difficult to really know if I was getting an accurate reading of my temperature...that is if I remembered to do it at the right time.

The problem with charting is that it detects a change in temperature after ovulation has occurred.  Most experts agree, and most studies support that sperm need to be ready and waiting before a woman ovulates.  Many couples who use the charting BBT method as a form of birth control have many unplanned pregnancies due to its unreliability.

Getting Pregnant Naturally May Be Possible Over 40

I have a firm belief belief that couples should look into natural options before starting expensive and sometimes dangerous fertility procedures.  I continually regret jumping into IVF treatments since I eventually got pregnant naturally well over the age of 40 but only after exhausting an exorbitant amount of money and emotional energy.
Among things mentioned in the article below, there are things you can do to improve egg quality.

In Women Over 40, IVF May Not Address The Root Cause Of Infertility

I also like the fact that Dr. Mercola (and Iva Keene in this article) states that IVF doesnt address the root cause of infertility.  There are some suggestions to decrease your exposure not only to toxins and environmental estrogens, but also to avoid things that you may be allergic to.

Read more:

Dairy products account on average for 60-70 percent of estrogens consumed. Humans consume milk from cows in the second half of pregnancy when cows estrogen levels are high. We usually associate dairy and drinking milk with calcium, and never think about what else we may be consuming along with the calcium (and dairy, by the way is not the best source of calcium). Here is a list of hormones that have been found in cows milk:

• Prolactin
  
• Somatostatin
  
• Melatonin
  
• Oxytocin
  
• Growth hormone
  
• Lutenizing releasing hormone
  
• Thyroid stimulating hormone
  
• Estrogens
  
• Progesterone
  
• Insulin
  
• Corticosteroids and many more

pregnancy weight loss first week | REPORTER HAS BABIES AT 40 43 AND 45

pregnancy weight loss first week

The article I have linked to below talks about how women may actually make new eggs in their ovaries.  Contrary to what most of the literature has claimed, that women may run out of "good" eggs, new research may be proving that wrong. This reporter had babies at 40, 43 and 45 and advocates a healthy lifestyle to preserve egg quality.

SEE ALSO: WOMEN WHO HAD A NATURAL PREGNANCY OVER 50 (getpregnantover40.com)

From the article:

It may sound simple and in theory it is. Its the practice that lets us down. Its generations of women who have this notion of menopause and you can only have a baby until youre 40 or 45 or whatever your lineage of females led you to believe and etched into your evolutionary DNA. The magic is we can change that - with only a quantum leap in consciousness, perhaps.
The more intact and toxin-free the environment the egg follicle grows in, the better the quality of the egg. Fertility experts all seem to agree on this. Much of the food we eat is so processed it isnt even real food anymore. This causes inflammation in the body and bang goes our egg health. Its impossible of course to be toxin-free in todays world and the older you are the more accumulated toxins you have. Hence the old eggs theory. By the way sperm are exposed to far too many modern day toxins as well and they carry half the DNA for a baby. So blame the fertility crisis on the guys too please.
Fact remains we are being misled concerning the sell-by date of our eggs and it has cost us dearly: Panic over egg reserve, money spent on tests and expensive treatments and decisions which may have been taken differently had we known otherwise. With stress hormones blocking the receptors of pregnancy hormones and negative thoughts about age, the body does one thing. It shuts down the baby making department. The mind has a huge impact on how every cell in the body functions. We are only just beginning to understand the magnitude of this.

weight loss in pregnancy causes | FLUORIDE MAY HARM FERTILITY

weight loss in pregnancy causes

When I was trying to conceive, I was worried about the quality of my tap water, although I never had it tested, I bought bottled water and tried to get fluoride free water.  Fluoride is added to community water in most areas, but it has been associated with declining birth rates and hypothyroidism.

SEE ALSO: FOODS AND TEAS FOR FERTILITY (getpregnantover40.com)

This articles explain more:

Findings We found that higher levels of fluoride in drinking water provide a useful contribution for predicting prevalence of hypothyroidism. We found that practices located in the West Midlands (a wholly fluoridated area) are nearly twice as likely to report high hypothyroidism prevalence in comparison to Greater Manchester (non-fluoridated area).

Interpretation In many areas of the world, hypothyroidism is a major health concern and in addition to other factors—such as iodine deficiency—fluoride exposure should be considered as a contributing factor. The findings of the study raise particular concerns about the validity of community fluoridation as a safe public health measure.

after pregnancy weight loss exercise in hindi | NONSTICK COOKWARE MAY CONTRIBUTE TO IINFERTILITY

after pregnancy weight loss exercise in hindi

 The Dangers Of Nonstick Cookware

I recently replaced much of my cookware to the non-stick variety. Yes, its somewhat expensive, but Ive heard so much about the dangers of nonstick cookware that it may be worth the investment in something safer.
I know the coated pans are easy to clean, readily available and hard to give up.
However, this article talks about how some non-stick chemicals may affect your fertility:

SEE ALSO: FERTILITY DETOXIFICATION (getpregnantover40.com)

A provocative new study finds that women who have trouble getting pregnant are more likely to have high concentrations of certain nonstick-chemical pollutants circulating in their blood than are those who become pregnant within the first month of trying. The suspect compounds — generally known as PFOA and PFOS — are the original primary constituents of Teflon and Scotchguard products.

Since the potential toxicity of certain perfluorinated chemicals began to emerge about a decade ago, formulations of both commercial nonstick-product lines have been reengineered to avoid reliance on PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid) and PFOS (perfluorooctane sulfonate). Nonetheless, plenty of both compounds still can be found in air, water and the bodies of people throughout the developed world. Indeed, babies are usually born carrying traces of both compounds — and their chemical kin — supplied by their moms’ blood.

Over the past two years, Chunyuan Fei of the University of California, Los Angeles, and her colleagues have linked elevated concentrations of both PFOA and PFOS in mom with a decreased likelihood that her baby or toddler would meet early developmental milestones — such as being able to sit or walk without support or to retrieve something (such as a toy or book) when asked.

pregnancy hormone weight loss pill | WHY DID SHE GET PREGNANT BEFORE ME

pregnancy hormone weight loss pill

Get Pregnant Naturally, It Will Happen On Its Own Schedule

Doesnt it feel like a race sometimes? I recall when I ran a womens infertility support group, most people sheepishly admitted they felt like they were competing with others when it came to who could get pregnant first.
Your self esteem takes a beating when you cant get your body to "perform" and it seems like slap in the face when others get pregnant before you. One member said, "I definitely want to get pregnant before my sister who is getting married next month" as if she was going to be humiliated if she couldnt "outperform" her.

SEE ALSO: SHARING INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR INFERTILITY (getpregnantover40.com)

Well...I have one thing to say...take yourself out of the race...it only adds stress to an already overly-stressed situation - and stress will only get in your way of getting pregnant.

So how do you get yourself out of the "race" mindset?

1. Remember, babies come on their own schedule...not out of your need to feel like youre getting ahead of others.

2. Just because someone had a baby before you - it doesnt mean theyre better or more worthy...theyre just on a different schedule.

3. Now that I have my daughter, Im glad I had her when I did...if I had her when we first started trying to get pregnant, shed be older by now. Im enjoying every minute. Most people my age are going through the trauma of watching their kids move away from home or going to college...I have many years of fun ahead of me.

5. The way I see it, for every week, month, and year I waited for my daughter to come into my life, thats how much more I enjoy being with her. I dont think I could have ever appreciated what a miracle the whole process of pregnancy and childbirth is if I had gotten pregnant on my first try (or if I had a baby in my 20s).

6. It seems like whenever Ive been envious or jealous of someone else, I later find out that theyve struggled as much or more than me it some part of their life. What appeared to be a charmed life wasnt so perfect afterall. Maybe they had an easier time getting pregnant, but there are many phases of life and many twists and turns along the way.

pregnancy weight loss exercises | PCOS MAY MAKE WOMEN FERTILE LONGER

pregnancy weight loss exercises

 Ovaries of Women With PCOS Are Active At Older Age

Youve probably already heard of PCOS by now (polycystic ovarian syndrome) which can lead to infertility.
There are ways to overcome PCOS naturally with diet and the right nutrients.
 The good news is, according to this article, many women with this disorder eventually conceive with and without help. The other bit of good news is they may be fertile longer. Read more:

About 7 per cent of reproductive-age women have PCOS, which features irregular periods, high levels of male hormones and greater numbers of developing follicles, or cysts, on the surface of their ovaries. In a normal ovary, a few follicles appear each month, one or two of which mature and release an egg; the rest die off. Women with PCOS ovulate less often because their extra follicles interfere with normal hormonal activity and stop follicles maturing past a certain stage. This is how PCOS lowers fertility.
_____________
SEE ALSO: INOSITOL FOR PCOS AND EGG QUALITY (getpregnantover40.com)
_____________

Now it looks like that is not the end of the story. Miriam Hudecova and colleagues at Uppsala University in Sweden interviewed 91 women who were 35 or older and had been diagnosed with PCOS when younger. They found the women had undergone just as many pregnancies and borne as many babies, on average, as PCOS-free women of the same age. Some of the women with PCOS had been treated for infertility, but more than two-thirds had become pregnant without such help.

Hudecova also examined most of the women and found that the ovaries of the older women with PCOS showed signs of being more active, with better hormone levels and more eggs available, than those of control women of the same age (Human Reproduction, DOI: 10.1093/humrep/den482). "As they get older, the chance of getting pregnant may actually be higher," says Hudecova.

baby weight loss first days | FERTILITY EXPERT IVF MAY BE A WASTE OF TIME

baby weight loss first days

Ive seen Dr. Robert Winston on television a number of times over the years talking about everything from fertility, to pregnancy and everything in between.  He was recently on British television talking about how IVF may be a waste of time for some couples and compared it with treating a headache with brain surgery before trying to figure out the underlying cause.

from the article:

He explained: A large number of people with hormonal problems are not getting the right treatment. Hormone drugs are cheaper but many go straight to IVF.

One of the most common causes of infertility is tubal damage and this can be investigated with a telescope and then with minor surgery to release and open tubes. 

Statistically these treatments and hormonal drugs are more effective than IVF and leave patients more likely to be permanently fertile afterwards.

SEE ALSO: HAVING A BABY OVER 40 (getpregnantover40.com) 

For couples who have been told they have an unexplained fertility problem, Prof Winston - whose Essential Fertility Guide was published this week - said they should push their GP for further investigations. 

Unexplained fertility is not a diagnosis. There will only be a very small minority who are classed as having explained infertility, he said.

The problem is the advice given by GPs is not good enough, they are stressed and have a lot of patients and often see infertility as a minor problem, I get that feeling anyway.

baby weight loss day 11 | DRUGS MAY NOT SOLVE FERTILITY PROBLEMS

 Pregnancy Over 40, Fertility Over 40, Fertility Drugs May Not Be The Answer

Im not going to talk about illicit drugs here. Im going to talk about how most people in our society including those in the healthcare industry think there is a pill out there to fix everything.
 I really got to thinking about this when an older relative had hip replacement surgery and was left in a state of confusion, disorientation and "delirium". The scary thing is he was perfectly fine before he went under the knife. Apparently all of the drugs he was prescribed blocked the necessary signals needed for proper brain function. He had to be discharged to a locked Alzheimers unit until his mental status cleared up. Hes fine now that hes been taken off the drugs, but what a nightmare!!

Many Fertility Drugs May Actually Cause Rather Than Cure Conditions

It just goes to show you how mainstream medicine may actually cause rather than cure many conditions. Take infertility for example...I wonder how much longer it took me to get pregnant and stay pregnant because of all of the fertility drugs. If you take the time to read all of the side affects and possible complications its downright scary!   Some fertility drugs even say they can cause birth defects.

I had a number of complications from fertility drugs...everything from hyperstimulation of my ovaries (which can be life threatening), to mood swings, to ectopic pregnancy (which is more common with IVF).

Its just that you want a baby so bad, youre willing to do anything! The best I can do for you is to share my 20/20 hindsight. Cleaning up your lifestyle, eating hormone regulating foods and changing your mindset is certainly healthier, less expensive, and less stressful than anything else out there! Trust and respect your body. Give it the right nutrients and the proper care. It will reward you with excellent health and the best prize of all--you may get pregnant.

How Yoga Positions For Fertility Can Help Couples Conceive

Guest Post By Rebecca Prescott

With more and more women delaying having children until later in life, there are a growing number of couples having difficulties conceiving. From their mid thirties onwards, womens chances of getting pregnant drop dramatically and many are turning to medical intervention to assist them in having a baby.
Trying to conceive can be a very stressful and emotional experience, particularly when it involves undergoing fertility treatment or IVF. Many doctors are now recommending women use yoga in conjunction with their medical treatment, both to assist them in de-stressing and to enhance their possibilities of becoming pregnant.
A Harvard based study found that women who were trying for a baby were three times more likely to conceive if they took fertility focussed yoga courses than those who did not. But what is it about yoga that prepares the body so well for conception and pregnancy?
As we have already mentioned, stress can be a major problems when a couple are having trouble conceiving. Stress can interfere with a womans menstrual cycle and delay ovulation, as well as reducing sperm production in men. The emotional release of yoga can ease stress and anxiety, enhancing a couples chances of conceiving.
This is most effective if both the male and female participate, and a couple might consider partner yoga in this situation. As well as deepening and strengthening their relationship, partner yoga can teach them how to cope together with the strain of trying for a baby.
There are numerous other ways that a fertility focussed yoga course can help a woman to conceive. In yoga the body is seen as an energy system, with a number of different areas or chakras. Certain yoga positions focus on increasing the energy flow in the second chakra, known as the seat of creation, which is where the reproductive organs can be found.
There are many yoga positions that increase energy in the second chakra. Certain restorative poses are perfect to prepare the body for conception. They can help to soften the abdominal region and remove any tension from the area of the ovaries, fallopian tubes and uterus. Reclining poses are used to elongate the abdominal region, allowing more blood flow to the reproductive organs.
There are also specific yoga positions that a woman can use after sex to increase her chances of conception. One of the most popular is a legs up the wall pose, known as Viprarita Kirani. This ensures that the sperm remain in the optimum position for fertilisation for as long as possible.
A final way that yoga can assist conception is by correcting irregular hormone levels that may be limiting fertility. Certain yoga positions can improve glandular function, which helps to normalize hormone levels.
Although nobody would claim that yoga alone can make you pregnant, following a course of fertility focussed yoga can significantly reduce the stress and emotion of trying to conceive. Used in conjunction with medical treatment, it can prepare your body and mind for pregnancy and greatly increase your chances of creating that longed for baby.

baby weight loss due to cold | SUPPORT GROUPS INCREASE PREGNANCY RATES

baby weight loss due to cold

I never thought I was a "support group" person, but after a number of years of going through assisted reproduction and suffering a number of miscarriages, I thought a support group might really help - especially since I wanted to keep my information private from people I knew.  The emotions build up inside of you when you go through all of the pain and anguish of assisted reproduction only to have it fail or have a miscarriage.  Additionally, after working in the corporate world and spending so much time at work, I had previously distanced myself from a lot of old friends who were on the mommy track or from people who were in a different stage of life.

 I was surprised how much I really enjoyed getting together with other women who were going through the same difficult experiences. Not only was I able to talk freely and openly about my infertility and miscarrages, but I also made a number of friends who I still keep in touch with to this day.

 Women who attend infertility support groups do have higher rates of pregnancy

As we get older, it seems our social circle tends to shrink, especially if you dont have children. An organized group is a great way to meet new people and to find instant acceptance where you can not only receive support but also help support others.  In the infertility support group that I joined (and eventually ran), most of the women were at least in their 30s and a couple were also in their 40s like me.  I wasnt as sensitive about my age because of this.

This article talks about how support groups actually increase the rate of viable pregnancies in the women who participated in them:

"You might expect that women who attend a support group experience a reduction in symptoms of depression and anxiety, and an increase in feelings of overall well-being. What you probably wouldnt guess is that group attendence may increase the rate of viable pregnancy as well. Research published in Fertility and Sterility (2000) demonstrated that 54% of women who attended a Resolve support group and 55% who attended the Harvard Mind/Body infertility program had a viable pregnancy within one year, compared to 20% in the control group. Patients in both groups received valuable information, support and encouragement from their peers."
