YOUR MIND IS POWERFUL
Be careful what you think and say - words and thoughts are very powerful and you could end up creating a scenario which was one that you would rather not have happen. Start off the day on the right foot with a nice positive affirmation and / or something that you are grateful for in your life.....AND then watch the day unfold 🙂 Is this something you tend to do in the morning? Please share below 🙂 *

CUPPA TIME
Here I am enjoying a lovely cup of tea at the clinic. I love my tea (well I am Irish after all 😉 it's such a nice meditative thing to do, something about it - the warmth, coziness, contemplation, time out, reflection, gathering of thoughts and nurturing. This one is an organic one by Tea Tonic Warm Spicy Tea @teatonic. If and where possible I always try to drink organic because it's free from nasty chemicals that mess up your hormones and hinder fertility.
What's your favourite tea and why do you like to drink tea? Share below :-)

TREE SPIRIT FERTILITY
The Chao Mae Tuptim Shrine is located near a hotel in Bangkok, Thailand. It is thought that the shrine is inhabited by the tree spirit Chao Mae Tuptim. If you bring a penis-shaped object and offer it to the spirit (this spirit cuts to the chase, no dinner just straight to dessert 😉 ). In return, she will grant you good luck and fertility (seems like a fair trade). And then you can test drive that theory at the hotel, conveniently located nearby ;-). SHA-WING! (Good ol' Wayne's world reference he he)

HONEY BEARS FERTILITY
Can a spoonful of honey ('help the medicine go down' there is literally a song for everything - I think I get this from my mum we can't help but break out into song ha ha 🤣) boost your fertility?
So it is believed that honey could increase your ability to conceive particularly in those that have unexplained infertility issues.
Honey brings a lot to the table - antioxidants, some minerals (sodium, calcium, potassium and magnesium to be specific), anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, contains some amino acids AND some vitamins like vitamin C. So a little honey is good for you and a healthier more nutritious substitute to sugar.
Remember antioxidants are important as a shield to protect your eggs and sperm from nasty toxins, anti-inflammatory foods assist with hormone balance = boosts fertility. Plus there are certain vitamins and minerals that are required for A) ovulation to take place and B) for the egg and sperm to join forces.
So go on and have a little honey!

Please like if you eat a little honey from time to time 🙂 *

NIGHT OWL HABITS FERTILITY
Do you have night owl tendencies and stay up later than you probably should? If you are nodding your head you need to read on... Research reveals that women trying to conceive should avoid excessive light at night (What? Keep reading). The dark side (darkness) is a key factor in reproductive health for women. Turning lights on at night reduces your production of melatonin (YIKES! there goes your sleepy hormone). Now I am not saying that you need to creep around in the dark and end up stubbing your toe on the kitchen table and yelling out a high pitched scream that only dogs can hear.
But the whole thing is that if you are exposed to light for extended periods of time when you should be getting some shut eye; melatonin will not stand a chance. You see when your body is exposed to darkness melatonin is produced. And melatonin is important when TTC because it protects your eggs from nasties that cause damage to them (free radicals) it's an antioxidant!!
The solution? Get to bed earlier you need 8 hours of sleep in darkness to produce enough melatonin for your fertility 😉 Please like or comment below 🙂 *

PICK YOURSELF UP AGAIN
So we all have times where we fall down, times are hard, times are tough, things didn't go to plan: when you fail or something doesn't go as planned it is the perfect opportunity to learn and grow from it. Take the time to lick your wounds, dust yourself off and ask yourself 'what have I learnt from this?' 'Is there something I should do differently next time?' 'Is it me getting in my own way that is the issue?' You've got this!

WEIGHTY FACTORS FERTILITY
Having a healthy BMI (Body Mass Index: Calculated using your weight and height. It determines whether your weight is healthy for your height) is vital for your fertility.
Being overweight can take twice the time it would to become pregnant compared with a women who has a normal BMI. Too much body fat > too much oestrogen = hormone imbalance > ovulation impacting > fertility issues.
Study done in 2017; couples who are both overweight may take 55-59% longer to fall pregnant than couples who are a healthy weight range.

So if you are trying to conceive (TTC) and you are overweight; make sure that you lose weight as part of your fertility preparation (preconception - baby ready prep). *

A BIG HELLO
Hi everyone. I thought that I would introduce myself for those that don't know me 🙂 Hello! I am Michelle Cooke - Hormone and Fertility Naturopath and Speaker. My passion is helping women struggling to conceive increase their chances of getting pregnant. I work one-on-one with patients to improve their fertility.

I am the Founder and Director of Reproductive Wellness. At my clinic I have the privilege of seeing patients with all kinds of hormonal imbalance presentations: PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, PMS, PCOS, PCO, peri-menopause (the rocky journey towards menopause), menopause, hypothyroidism, hashimotos thyroiditis and for assistance with fertility and all things related: preconception care (preparing the body for conception), pregnancy health, IVF / ART support and post-natal wellness support (including breast feeding support). I LOVE to talk about fertility and imbalanced hormones at seminars, workshops and congresses to women from all walks of life including health professionals. I am so passionate about women feeling empowered and in control (NOT their hormones) by uncovering how they can improve their fertility and reproductive health and live a life that they love.

STONE COLD FERTILITY

So in Belgrade, Serbia they are superstitious about parking your buttocks on a cold stone steps or wall. It is believed that you would encounter difficulty conceiving.
Older women (the elders) who have younger women's best interests in mind (i.e. their fertility) would alert them to get up off the cold stone.
Regardless, I think most women if they had to choose would sit on a COLD HARD stone as a last choice for a seating option! Don't you think?

I think it makes the world an interesting place with all these superstitions and beliefs 🙂 p.s. I love this photo it makes me laugh - because when you are hanging with your girlfriends this is totally how you would sit down together in a model pose AT ALL TIMES (ha ha NOT!). Please like if you found it interesting 🙂 *

PERINATAL ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION
Let's recognise that it is 'Perinatal Anxiety and Depression Awareness Week' this week Nov 10th - Nov 16th.
For some pregnant women that are expecting a baby and for those women that are new to parenthood times can be really tough. It is more common than you think for women to experience depression and / or anxiety in the perinatal period. Actually 1 in 10 women experience it and 1 in 20 men experience it too.
So it is normal to experience some ups and downs when you are expecting a baby or adjusting to having a new bub. However it is when it is more pronounced that it is an issue. This could be things like panic attacks, persistent worry or fears over the health and well being of your bub, feeling numb like you don't have an emotional connection to your bub, constant crying, withdrawal from family and friends, thoughts of harm to you or your baby etc.
We need to be aware and talk about this more. If you notice that someone close to you is experiencing this (a friend or family member) make sure you reach out and advise them to seek professional help.

There is more great information about this on the PANDA website. There is also a hotline you can call 1300 726 306 if you notice that you or someone you know is feeling this way.
https://www.panda.org.au/awareness/resources

I would also like to add that it is vital to check that the woman and man's zinc and vitamin D status is adequate. If you are low in zinc and / or vitamin D this can arise in depression and anxiety.
Please like if you agree that this mental health condition needs to be discussed and out in the open. *
