Ripley's Famous Fertility Statues on Tour in 2010

It may not be very scientific, but after a three-year world tour  in  the late 90s, Ripley's Believe it or Not received more than 2,000 letters from women who had become pregnant shortly after touching the statues – even though many had been told by doctors they would never conceive.

They will be touring again at various Ripleys Believe it or Not! museum locations around the United States including Florida, New Jersey, Maryland, Oregon, Texas, and a few other locations.  There is no charge to touch the statues, so if you are near any of these locations, you may want to make plans to stop by when the statues are on display -- it sure can't hurt!!  You can read more and get the schedule HERE.

Are You Eating and Drinking Toxic Chemicals?

It seems the more I research into the causes of infertility, the more I am convinced that the food we eat and the environmental toxins we are exposed to are a major contributing cause to the increase in fertility problems around the globe (as well as other health problems). I just came across this article which discusses harmful effects of bisphenol A, or BPA as it is more commonly referred to. This chemical is used in the production of many plastics such as bottles and in the lining of cans and, and it seems that it can leach into the food and drink that is stored in them. The result is a potential health hazard as this chemical is what's known as a "hormone mimicking" chemical. This means is can upset the hormonal balance which is so critical when one is trying to get pregnant. There are some things you can do to avoid ingesting this chemical. To read more, Click Here.

This Little Device Can Boost Your Chance of Getting Pregnant!

The other day I received an email from a reader of my newsletter alerting me to a product that can help boost fertility. I am always on the lookout for new products, but somehow I missed this one!

I checked it out and I think this is a fantastic product that everyone should try if you are looking to boost your odds of conceiving. It is rather inexpensive and can especially help those who are dealing with male factor issues such as low sperm count/motility.

While there is no scientific evidence that this will work, I am a firm believer in listening to the evidence of other women who have tried it themselves with great success. Often doctors will not recommend something because there is no "scientific evidence", but if it works for many others, why not give it a chance as long as it seems reasonable.

The product is called SoftCup and it basically is a type of cervical cap that will allow you to concentrate the sperm right at the entrance of the cervix to boost your odds of conceiving.

Here is the link--you can read many testimonials on that page from women who have used this method to conceive, many who were successful the first month trying it!

Can Your Shampoo Effect Your Chance of Conceiving?

When I recently released the new edition of my e-book, Personal Path to Pregnancy one of the topics that was included focused on the effects of environmental toxins on fertility. This is a very
popular topic right now as more research seems to indicate that there may be a strong link between environmental hazards and the negative impact on fertility.

Here is an article I recently came across that deals with this subject. Definitely worth a read!!

Common Household Chemicals Tied to Infertility

Can't Get Pregnant? You are Not Alone!

I just read an emotional story posted by a woman going through the struggle to conceive. Reading her story, I was reminded of all of the emotions I felt when I was going through my own journey towards motherhood. I know that many women feel very alone and often wonder, "why me?". I think this story will remind you that you are definitely not alone, and many women are going through the same emotional roller coaster.
