What thoughts were going through your mind when you were diagnosed with infertility? Did you feel a little inadequate? Trust me, I know exactly how you feel, as I too have been on the emotional roller coaster known as infertility. I spent years of pain and anguish trying everything under the sun to get pregnant. There was nothing more in the world that she wanted than to have a baby that she could love and hold.

My desire to be a mother took me to great lengths as I endured several expensive and painful surgeries, as well as a litany of fertility drugs. To my dismay, nothing on the medical side worked… So I decided to try different home remedies for infertility that I had been hearing about, as I was not willing to give up on my dream of becoming a father. And I have something super exciting that I want to share with you!

I discovered some holistic secrets that helped me get pregnant naturally and you can too! In fact, these methods are so effective that I was able to conceive within weeks of using them. Here are the most powerful holistic tips I’ve discovered so you can use them yourself:

1) Body cleansing: our bodies are wonderful machines that were designed to work in optimal conditions. This is more important when it comes to pregnancy. In order to conceive, a perfect symphony of hormones, vitamins, and minerals must be present, or your body will not allow the production of a baby. Since our current culture is structured around convenience, there are numerous toxins that we ingest every day. The most effective way to cleanse your body is through a healthy vitamin-enriched diet and regular cardiovascular exercise.

Now, this does not mean that you should undertake a massive review of your entire life. Start small by swapping a meal or just taking a walk with your spouse.
each night.

2) Change of beauty products: Many cosmetics contain the chemical Paraben, which is known to disrupt the hormonal balance needed to get pregnant. Paraben can be commonly found in deodorants and shaving creams. They are very dangerous as the FDA lists them as possible carcinogens and recent studies have linked them to an increased risk of breast cancer. A quick review of your beauty products is definitely needed if you’re having trouble getting pregnant. This chemical alone can prevent you from styling.

3) Eliminate certain drinks completely: I’m the kind of person who likes a good glass of wine every once in a while, so I was very surprised to discover that any amount of alcohol consumed can reduce the chances of conception by 50% or more.

Getting rid of alcohol for at least three months before trying to conceive will give you a better chance of getting pregnant. Another drink that you will have to get rid of is coffee. Studies have shown that drinking as little as one cup a day can cut your ability to have a baby by half or more, just like alcohol. These two areas can be very difficult to change, but consider your goal as a parent in making this small, limited sacrifice.
