Set your DVR tomorrow

Tomorrow on ABC's "The View" they are devoting a whole hour to trying to have a baby. They will have on "Giuliana and Bill" from the Style Network hit reality show on. Love them. They are in the throws of infertility and I can't wait to see what they have to say.

Let me know if you watch it and what you think.

A link between Celiac Disease and Infertilty

I am a fan of healthy living for me and my family. I believe infertility is on the rise (now 1 in 6 women) for many reasons and one of those reasons is because of the foods we eat. Hormones have been put into our meat and milk for the last 17 years, when the FDA approved rBST for commercial use in 1993.

I ran across this article that, frankly did not surprise me one bit. You can read it here. I'm a big fan of Dr. Mercola and get his newsletters by email. I learn so much from him about really living healthy. I remember Elisabeth Hasslebeck from "The View" talking about her struggle with infertility. It took her years to get pregnant and only did so after she was diagnosed with Celiac Disease. She made the changes in her diet and bingo, got pregnant.

I hope this information is helpful to you. I am always looking for natural ways to overcome infertility.

This is the place for you.

Thank you for stopping by. This blog is for those that have dealt with or are currently struggling with infertility. I want to hear from you. I want to know your story and together I hope a community is formed. A place where we can support one another, encourage one another, cry with one another and pray for one another. We will rejoice for those that are pregnant or adopting and we will have FAITH for those that are still waiting.

I have been where you are. I know the pain you are going through. I know what it's like to wonder if you will ever be a mom. I know the sting when a friend tells you she's pregnant or the tears that are shed going through the baby dept. at Target. Seeing that very young girl who is not married and very pregnant and you ask God, "Why her and not me". The hopes you get every month wondering if this is the month. Hopeful to see that + sing on a HPT. I know the incredible pain of losing a child born too soon. Through it all one thing remains true. God feels your pain too and He cries with you. I would have never made it through this journey if it wasn't for my faith, especially after losing my daughter Zoe who was born at 21 weeks. I didn't know if I would ever recover from such a horrible loss. There were days I didn't want to wake up. I just missed my baby so much. I sit here 5 years later and blessed with 2 more beautiful daughters to tell you that there is HOPE. I did get through it and lived to tell about it. You can too.
