I did about this episode because I wasn't sure
If I was going to do it and one of the cruellest things about
having an insiders group on Facebook, if you're not already in it. If you just search on Facebook for gold, digger, pod, guess insiders, you can request to enter exclusive
community. But one of the cruellest things about that group is ETA. Get to ask: why
gin severe out what kind of shows we should be doing, and I were
It's you ask people if they wanted to hear.
About where we're out with our fertility journey- and I know it's so mean its uncomfortable. It's also something
not really talked about a lot but a lot of
guys. I know I've been following our journey for the last year, a couple years in so I figured hate, ledges put it out there. This could help. Somebody
and to me just knowing that it could help just one person or
does help, remove the stigma about everything I knew I had to record there so
you don't want to hear about the things that were doing while I really hope
that you say on, because there are things I can help you, even if you're not trying to get pregnant and or if you are
he's trying to be healthier, really excited about all of these things. By, if you do,
we have these struggles in your life. Chances are that you know somebody who does or that there are people in your life that are walking through these similar struggles that just aren't talking about it quite yet, and so I pray that
episode can just really open your eyes to what's going on for a lot of wine.
In an couples and families in the world and to just kind of talk candidly about
My experience has been working with its fertility doctor. In kind of you know, it's a whole
world. For me to some in case, you don't
Our story drew nigh, we ve been married
Six years around, our five year anniversary were like hey, like maybe it's about time. We
start this whole family thing. People often ask is for years about when we're gonna have kids in four key
some time. We were really opposed to the idea. We just love being together, the two of us, no simple. It is but something change
in my heart, and it was a rather sudden change. I think you know with
our nieces and nephew starting to grow up in seeing our siblings become parents in a lot of our friends around us become parents it. It was about.
Then I guess we got bit by it and we started
toss around the idea of what it would look like to grow our family and we found out. We are pregnant actually both times while we are in Hawaii, which was kind of crazy, a wise such a healing place for us. It's not just place
vacation, but it's really become just a piece of our hearts, and you know if you do
No, we lost both of our babies in the really hard part about
miscarriages one, that a lot of people don't understand. It's really really hard to wrap your head.
India. Unless you ve been in that situation and the other crazy
thing about. It. Is that one out of four pregnancies
ends in miscarriage in. So, if you think about that statistic, it is really staggering in how
many women have gone through this. How many couples have walked through this and probably how many have
so silently and so
lost our second baby in June of this year, and
I had a whole episode dedicated to what it was really like. It was very wrong. It was very, very hard, but it was also
oh, very scary for me, because it wasn't just
another miscarriage. It was the same exact thing that has happened before, and so I remember
the day after we got the news that are babies heartbeat had stopped, I remember lay
in bad and
getting really scared like wheat. This x
same situation happen twice like lightning dozens.
Like the same place twice in this happened for us, and so it started
Still the sphere within me, like there's gotta, be something wrong with me, because it's not normal for people
go through this wines.
Even twice
and so I remember just
in bad wide, awake thinking. Okay, what happened like
We saw the heart, be everything was good. Baby was growing and then I'll send it just stops, and so at that
I knew that I wanted to pursue some sort of answers, because I'm a very analytical person, the very result, space person in so to quote
say all two times in a row meant something needed to be fixed. In my opinion, and so one of the heart
these things is first things. First, we dont have traditional healthcare, so a lot of times. We get questions about this, but both
zoning our own businesses. Being entrepreneurs meant that we had to figure out something else for health care in, so we actually go through a company called Christian
healthcare ministries and AIDS are co op.
So instead of being like a traditional health insurance, it is I'm trying to
Spain, it well on propaganda, but your eye by its in
organization aware as Christian
we put our monthly payments in and that monthly payments.
Actually goes to help pay other pupils bills and then we in our time,
comes and we have medical bells and need to be paid. We submit them and then we get paid, and so it's basically like a bunch of Christians
pulling their money together for the greater good
and so when we go to the doktor and safe, we claim self pay, because we ourselves paying our bells with the help of christian health.
Ministries and I'm not gonna, go on a whole
engine about this, but it is really hard. If you have to entrepreneurs in your house,
to figure out what the best fit is for you and if you have any
questions about christian Healthcare ministries? Feel free to
email me and my team- and I can just kind of puts
there are let all information about it in case it sounds like something that's the right fit for you by the whole
point of me saying? That is that when we went through our second laws and we were at the doktor, I was ready to go in, for
surgery I was asking like one
is wrong. I, how can we fixes and the hard thing about traditional? How
carry a lot of times, they will not do any sort of testing and tell you have had three documented miscarriages and the thought for me of going through the
again without having changed anything without having tried anything without a plan. Just I mean it
paralyzes me guys I get is so stinkin scary to think like yeah, I'm just going to try to get pregnant
and you can see what happens like? I have watched
through these seasons twice and the thought of doing it again is I mean it? Just? Is debilitating to me so it's obviously been a few months
We lost her second baby in the way
thing is: is that part of me feels like it was just yesterday, but there have been so much
things that have happened since these continue to advocate and try to find an answer.
As for our multiple losses in to be
yes, I remember the day after just getting that news and being like I'm gonna do something like I have to do. Something
If I just sit here and do nothing, I am going to continue to go through in my head. What the possibilities are and not having an answer is way worse than just having seventy say: hey both times
I was able to have
pregnancy all the way up until ten weeks. But then the babies were passing away between six and seven weeks and so then
have surgery and so
anyways. I decided that we were going to advocate for ourselves whether or not we are paying out of pocket which she answered. Yes, we are paying out of pocket, but it is worth every thing
penny and the craziest
thing is, is that I met my fertility doctor in January far before we got pregnant with my second baby. Far before I ever knew, I would need to hire her
and she doctor no well, is in my masterminded. She had wrote me a handwritten note that just said I will help you with your fertility, with their phone number below
little did, I know there. I would really need a phone number in the coming months in the weird thing is, and I think it's just a God thing is I saved this,
I don't know I had a I held on to it. Something.
Oh me, maybe you're gonna need this, which I did and so little
that I know after our second loss, I was going to take her up on his offer in Lauren
you said, is in my mastermind she is a natural traffic fertility, Doktor based in San Diego, but since
have a personal connection with her and was able to talk things through with her. I knew that she was going to be the right thing for me and so work.
Remotely with her. It meant doing consults over the phone, but it was
weird or didn't feel off, because I know her and I don T see her a few times over this year and says she knew
with me. She knows my body and it was an awkward at all, and so when we
miscarried again Ozma parted, with all these messages and suggestions and stories, and it was really encouraging to hear.
So many women who have worked in my shoes and then went on to have healthy pregnancy is, but it
really really overwhelming, and I found myself
willing to many things, trying to figure out what could be going on inside of me and if anyone is war,
through this and shared a you're gonna get all of these messages like check your thyroid check for the Anti HIV. Far mutation check your adrenal check this check that,
All of a sudden, you start becoming this like walking like person
contract. Thinking, like I have all these things wrong with its never going to happen, and so the cool
thing about when I first higher doktor low is she said, you're gonna know your body
so much better after all of us and for the first time,
in this journey. I felt relieved that at least I was looking at them
from every angle and not
guessing what was happening and hoping for the best. So when I have gone
you're my miscarriages, I felt totally disconnected from my body so after each loss, I've just gone through this period of
feeling like a stranger in my skin, and just you know, going through the
cycles of really hating my body, because it failed me to trying to fit
the self love thing and when she
saw me like, if anything, you
I know your body so much better. I just like felt like I breathed this big sigh of relief because
I knew that I was at least taking some steps to try and figure out so
What we did is I did and initial consult over the phone where she just asked me all kinds of questions that I have never been asked before. How is your sleep
user digestion. Look like what does your diet look like? How are you feeling
enduring different points of the day, and it was so funny because
like die? You have to ask these questions and figure out. Some is health, but again like in
experience you know
really healthy persons, or I haven't really gone to the doktor much in the last ten years, and so it felt for
and to be answering questions like this over the phone, but it felt really good to feel like I was finally being heard, so I just want
you're, a few of the task that we did in some of the results and then
want to walk to what our plan is moving forward. Now I feel
I should have liked a disclaimer like clearly, I am not a doktor by any means and my results might we differ
from what your resolves are, but hopefully
in sharing this image is encourage you to either seek advice and help or to make some
I have changes if you're hoping to become pregnant or to have a successful pregnancy.
One of our most called the m. T f h are which, when I was reading that like when people are sending me this as it does, it say, mother are these
were sending me this as it does it say: mother, are they spelling things wrong, but the empty F hr gene
station and that came out negative, but basically
Jeanne mutation is possible factor in recurrent miscarriages with mixtures.
Also some studies have found that this gene variation increases the risk of miscarriages, while others claim that
is no link, but basically it's a good thing if you ve had recurrent laws to get tested for this mutation
because some doctors will test for if you have a history of miscarriages and offer aggressive treatment to everyone
thought mutation, others don't even,
or test for it, so the wheat has therefore came back negative, which is a really big blessing to know that we do have to walk through that's obstacle
but that was something that a lot of before messaging me about and yes, we got tested for it. It is a good thing to do is get test of order. No, if you have that, because it can be a factor in reoccur,
laws. The next thing we test of war was the obscene bar virus anti body and
Tests are basically just done for the Ebay, the antibodies, and this is how
the two are used to help diagnose, Ebby and faction, so there,
can cause infectious Mano nuclear says, which is Mano. So if a person
symptomatic, but has a negative monetize, which I came back positive on this. In that I have had
Mano at some point. In my life, I've never been diagnosed for it, but I don't currently have in so I think that we
did this test specifically because I have been so tired bike
so exhausted, not just like I'm a little tired today but like unable to function tired, and so it was kind of crazy to find out, like hey,
you ve had Mano it somewhat your life and you ve never been diagnosed so I'd sums
my life. I've definitely navigated Mano, but I dont currently have it now. One
The biggest asset we did was adrenal testing
We found some major issues when we did this and I was ready for this one to come back wonky and I was totally right in being ready for that
you know well almost called the testing centre to make sure that the results were accurate, because I was literally off the charts with my quarters. Also,
the hormones that are produced by your adrenal glands, particularly the stress hormone cortisol play an employer,
didn't role in regulating your immune system. Savior cortisol levels go
too high or too low. This can lead to re in fact, chains chronic.
Formation, auto immune diseases and allergies. So one courtisolles many functions.
To reduce inflammation. So when your body encounters a path
in I know this sounds like foreign language, the immune system response by quickly as hacking. It which causes
information, which is often a good thing as it means your immune system, is working, but what I found
possession cortisol levels were super high and then
really need to focus like super focus. Unregulated stress in my life, which also
looks at distress that I'm putting on my body internally, which all share more about that in just a second, but this test
the revealed that I am asked region dominant and progesterone insufficient, which can also contribute to miscarriage. So when you are
it is all levels get way out of work. This can also affect your hormone levels and a lot of times
we mean that have had recurrent laws. They'll do progesterone.
Fermentation when they're trying to get pregnant in throughout their first trimester- and so this kind of proved that this might be
being that we're gonna need in the future. But
cool as thing about working with a natural path. Doktor is I asked
after low theirs. They said I notice on my heart that it said that I was asked to do.
In dominate in progesterone insufficient. She said my goal is for us to regulate them
without needing you'd supplement, and I thought that was so cool because a lot of times
Doctors are just be like hey take this progesterone, it's gonna help you, which is great but like doktor low,
believes that my body is capable of doing this and man. How cool would it be for me to
harry a child full term. Knowing my body is able to do this awesome so
my goal, is to really get my body back into equal, every em so that it can produce progesterone without the need to supplement it and the adrenal fatigue, which we hear a lot about
but I didn't really understand- is really comment. If you ve walked through stress
we'll seasons of your life, and if you get your dream
out of whack, and you don't know any don't pay attention to it. It can be really really easy
to just go on having adrenal fatigue, which can impact
kind of places in your life that I never even knew about. So the next test that we did with proper-
Why was the biggest impact in my life? Was the
Zuma pay
and guess what we found, I am allergic to gluten, so
No, I like when I was getting ready to do this tests. I literally called my sister before I went in knowing
the results were going to yield this fact as doctrine.
I would say she said you have a raging gloom, intolerance and when I got the real
odds from this test, which showed a whole lot of red, I knew
that I'd have to cut gluten for my diet before she even told me to hide shown signs of gloom intolerance in the past, but you know me: I love my parson bright away too much, so
it was just a simple blood tests that showed,
What I was thinking was something that I needed to change so when you partner of really
severe allergy or intolerance to this newly.
Discovered, adrenal fatigue and throwing a little leaky God, which is something we also discovered at all, makes sense. Basically, the gluten intolerance was creating.
Stress on my body where my dream
rules where releasing cortisol to try to handle this stressing counteract it. And then my boy,
he was just getting so tired, so inflamed so stress our inside, which was leading to both leaky gut and hormonal balance, so kindly
when I figured and learned all of this stuff like I had no
de that some sort of intolerance, whether be gluten or dairy or caffeine, or whatever that looks like a good play,
giant role in being and over all health infertility factor that can influence your ability,
to have children or to really
I carry a pregnancy to full term who knew crazy right. My dog
barking. Z had no idea
like I had no idea
so. I want to share the changes that are making and there are five of them since
through all this testing in what are applied.
And is is basically I am going to give my body another six months to rest
and reset so our goal in all of this is to heal my boy,
body from the inside out so instead of jumping into four,
till it. He treatments in the sense of different hormones or going through IVF.
I, U eyes which a lot of people have to go through because they haven't.
We have all successfully get pregnant. We are focusing on.
On really just looking out my overall health and while and how can I get my body to an optimal
they use where it is hopefully ready, and I want
who also just kind of throw them out there, because it so on. My heart is drew nigh
been so fortunate to be able to get pregnant, and I know that so many women out there have never experienced that joy that
comes when you see that pregnancy test and so
My journey is definitely different. I mean all of our journeys are just so one of a kind in this, but a future struggle
out there now to conceive, and it is not happening
on this cycle of hope, and then disappointment
I'd down every month. I want you to know like I am actively praying for you truly
there are so many people, my life, I've walk through this than I get emotional just thinking about it, because there are so many of us that ours
ongoing are struggling so hard and the aid
creates a cycle of shame on you know, discussed with our bodies and were going through all these different
things. They try to figure out what it is and it could just be there's one little variable, but I just want you to know if this is where your out in your journey that you're not alone when I want
you continue now to share the fine things that we are doing in my life in orders,
try and hear myself. So when we first,
this whole fertility testing thing I just
ensure what to expect what they tell me. I couldn't conceive again where they find
add a terminal illness when they say that I am totally Norman. I have no clue why we had to miscarriages in a row and there's no
suppose so excited to just really advocate for myself and take me
there's into my own hands, and so I've learned a lot over these
past three months and I just want to share these five lifestyle changes that I've been making as we ve been walking. Our road towards growing our family
ok. So the first thing that I did in terms of just working towards a healthier life was remove this hawks ins and when people used to talk about this about their skin
here in their hair care. I was totally the eye roller, like raising my hand. I'm sorry. If any of you ever told me about this- and I just didn't understand- I mean I use so I get it, but I didn't really get it
but what really change the way that I started thinking about this was what
realize, like hey doctors, prescribed topical solutions for medicine, so I been on different
topical solutions in my life and basically, what made me
give. This is like our skin is absorbing what we are putting on it, which includes all the dogs
and found in our skin gear. Our lotions are perfumes cleaning products to Kyoto
it's a whole shipping. So when I say
looking at this fertility. So this is one of the first ways that I could just really help my body out into my doctor, chow
and me to switch to all natural staff, whether skin care make up hair care. I started looking closer,
labels of
cleaning solutions being used in our home and whom I getting drew. Ninety five percent of the cleaning anyways. But if you want help figuring out what-
in the bottles in your home. I challenge you to download the app called
think authority and prepare to haul a load of staff to the dump. It is insane what kind of fillers r B
put in our products that we are using in all
on our bodies, so to the things that I found super helpful
lower Jane natural skin Caroline it is my favorite toxic freeze, skin care. It is amazing, like the make up. Remover is like
we're gonna oil in the face wash it's like this. All natural mask scrub with
lavender in it's amazing and then also I swear
all natural deodorant end, I love primarily pure. These are not adds. These are women that I like
of so much because they ve developed these products at. I truly love so not being paid to share this. I just really love both of these women and what they're doing so, primarily pure and Lola, Jane both of them sent me products when they found out that
switching to all natural, and I
fell in love, side become true advocates, say, user stuff all the time. Let's be honest, we all have this love hate relationship with Instagram. We find ourselves scrolling where hash, taking our way into oblivion, trying to crack the code on how to get more followers and were straight
exhausted from the rat race. I get it. That is why I want to help you this show is made possible with the help of my totally,
free install resources to help you write captions at convert to use hashtags that actually connectivity or dream clients, and so much more hop on over to J K, instead dot com and get your hands on my resources, crew.
It is with you in mind. That's right! It's free ninety nine, and it is what
For you over J K. Instead, dotcom go dig on in an all see over on the Graham ok, the second factor
is removing stress, and this one is
are easier said than done, but I've taken big strides in this area as someone
as major adrenal fatigue is important to look at all these stressors in my life and start to identify the places where I can consciously work towards less stress, to keep my cortisol levels down,
to be honest. Since our first miscarriage, I haven't really been able to lose any weight, and I was getting so
frustrated, and I'm all about that self love. But at this
point like when you are at your heaviest way and nothing is moving. The needle I didn't realize like me,
Lifestyle is impacting there. So a few things. I've changed in terms
removing stress I taking a little breather from cross, but not because it's not awesome, arrived and cross fit five days a week for
ass for years without deviating. But I am a calm.
It is our fleet through and through, and I can never do anything half heartedly then so when we
looking at the way that my cortisol was going throughout the day. It was really
and tat. I was almost pudding stress. My body first thing in the morning going rate to the gym, and so in
I've been sleeping in a little bit longer with Meda.
And then getting up and taking them on a long walk, so a walk like two three miles a day and all
Cindy worship, music and I'll call my mom on the phone
it also been trying to like cut back on my caffeine consumption, which is so hard, but really just looking at how much caffeine I'm consuming and then also just take it
notes on the things I stress me out and how we can start to make sure
just so, I am
really paying attention now so like how things are making me feel what parts of my work or marriage or
life are causing stress and then how can I create action plans or outsourced
these things or just be more mindful about what it is that of stressing the out, and how can I really influence it in a positive way? Now number three
I now alluded to by removing gluten now
noticing a trained on the removal scale. I'm trying to remove drives them trying to remove toxins, and I have fully removed gluten
a little over a month. In of being totally and completely gluten free, no cheese
hang I've. She did not a single time. No, nothing in. I was nervous about doing arrayed away because re. When I was diagnosed it was a week of my sister's wedding. We at all
events, waiter, bachelor party, all you know, groom sooner on things, and I was in the middle
adding season, and it could have been really easy for me to be like ok, I'll start this next month by the funny thing. Was
the day that I found. I was just done with it. I was down because I feel like
Once I learned like your body cannot handle this and you putting this into your body is causing stress swinging.
Tired it's making you eighty hours like done Pisa Gluten, I'm not going to miss you
thing, I'm actually enjoying it. I thought it was gonna, be a lot harder and then it was then
think for me. I cannot be someone that
like toeing the line like I tried e gluten free before
Then I might all. Well I mean it's not gonna kill me too, have like this cake or whatever Dona, and so now
I know that I feel like I'm just rocking and enjoying it in.
Some really incredible substitutes out there and I'm using them, while I'm kind of transitioning off, but my biggest school is to ditch like all of the gluten free brides. Pastors pancake makes it
all the things then just enjoy them on special occasions that my diet is alot cleaner and
paleo like and I think the hardest thing about being totally gluten free is eating
I think it causes stress for me, because I never want to be that girl. That's like out the restaurant linked to this have gluten in it. Where can I see the ingredients of this, but you have to be
and if I want to advocate for my health- and I have to just get comfortable with that- and now it is
it is so much easier to be gluten free than it was in the past, and so so far our waitresses have been
easing about it when they also just challenges us to cook more at home, which is great, true, has been a champ. He is really really hard,
the ability to cook gluten free things bless his heart,
and it really I've really enjoyed it. I'm
still like waiting for more of the feeling better earnest to kick in cause. You know I'm still kind of on this detox phase of it, but I'm excited
did about it and I'm enjoying it. Number four is take
kings supplement. So I meant to be the first to admit that I am a terrible taking pills, my entire life
never been on a daily prescription, and thank heavens for that, because I really Saka doing it so now
I'm taking a handful of supplements in order to help with different deficiencies that we found during my blood work
even bought one of those like little pill boxes at your grandma grandpa use. I have M m p M compartments. Tell me stay on track and to make sure I'm getting
all the vitamins nutrients. As we hear my body from the inside out. One of the policy
that, I love most about what we're doing. Is that I'm not turning to any medication or hormone therapy or working
my body back to being able to do it all on its own and I'm really sorry
didn't hopeful and how we are working through the lower opt in
spots in the places where I was truly deficient and not
using supplements, but also just changing my diet. So there are different
visions, ease that we found out and then my doktor she would recommend like this. Food is really great
for this, and you know having like random things like Brazil
that's for selenium and things like that. I'm learning a lot more about how to get the right nutrients through food answer.
Mounting where we need, because us be honest,
Our diet are not always rich with the nutrients. Our bodies need to work on an optimal range
Lastly, I am totally getting to know my body I feel like I am like meaning a new friend and getting to know her over time, but it is safe to say that
for all of this. I was the queen at ignoring my body. I cannot tell
yeah? How many hours of nine hours sleep in your heart and I was using the bathroom or how is feeling after eating certain things, and I was just really tired like.
When I hired doktor low, I remember the first call all I can say
as I am just so tired just so tired
realize. I was having anxiety about doing different things, whether that was having a
every day or setting up a phone call or setting up an interview, because I was so anxious that I was going to be too tired to do it, and I knew that
just push through cause: I'm not a flaky person, and so it was kind
crazy when they started to realize like how much this exhaustion was hitting me, and it wasn't work really
and it was that my body was just like not running well, and so I
you like it is amazing that I have
well to have this eye opening experience, not just in seeing test results, but
knowing like how my body is working together and paying attention to the way different things are making me feel like sleep,
exercise in diet and wine and big tool does
super helpful, navigating the big diet changes is this food track
turn on one of my amazing follower. She created it's the food dire
co, I basically it lays out see, can keep track of your food, but it also
space for you to write about how different foods are, making you feel and so were kind of working through a especially as I'm trying
change at my diet, so that I can kind of
pay attention like howling feeling throughout the day, what I'm crazy
He had turned times of the day how that's impacting the way that I am working, etc. It's been such a Jew
do you guys, and it's been such a war,
these last two years, with two losses and kind of
and certainty. This season of life has not been easy by any means, but there has been so much good within it, whether its connecting with other people
on this journey or just sharing our story in hopes of helping other people
feel less alone, but it has been
