Natural Remedies When Trying To Get Pregnant

Trying to become pregnant is such a wonderful and joyous time in your life.  Welcoming new precious souls to this earth is such an amazing blessing.  There is a lot of preparing that goes into planning a new child, like; insurance planning, financial planning, home planning, emotional planning, etc.  One important degree of planning that sometimes gets overlooked, is preparing our bodies for such a big change.  Here are some natural methods that are proven to cleanse, awaken and prepare the body for pregnancy and childbirth...

• Pre-Pregnancy Cleanse - helps cleanse toxins out of your body so it can nurture a baby more efficiently.  Click here for my basic cleanse.
  
• Daily Green Smoothies  - are important for all of pregnancy and beyond.  Click here for my Green Smoothie recipe.
• Chasteberry - an herb found at your local health foods store.  It is AKA Vitex agnus-castus, and is a menstrual regulator that can help increase fertility.  
•  Red Raspberry Leaf - an herb found at your local health foods store.  It is highly regarded for its ability to tone the uterus and muscles of the pelvic region.
• Nettle Leaf - a supplement found at your local health foods store that contains a wide spectrum of vitamins and minerals that are critical to good reproductive health, including Vitamins A, C, D, K, Potassium, Phosphorous, Iron, and Sulfur.  Nettle Leaf also contains Calcium – a mineral that affects a woman’s ability to conceive and maintain pregnancy.
• L-Carnitine - found at your local health foods store.  Low sperm counts have been linked to low carnitine levels in men.  Several studies suggest that L-carnitine supplementation may increase sperm count and mobility (get this for your partner, it can't hurt).
• Multi-Vitamin/Pre-Natal Vitamin - I would make sure you and your partner are taking a mulit-vitamin.
• Yoga - is a very good way to prepare your body for pregnancy and childbirth.  Yoga can also release harmful toxins from your body.  

I used a lot of these things when I was preparing to become pregnant with my last child.  I believe they all helped a lot.  There is also an herb combination that has been known to help with infertility.  If you have problems with infertility and would like to find out more info, click here.  If you are already dealing with a doctor, I would check with them and make sure it will not affect anything you are already taking/doing.  Good luck on this blessed time in your life!
