* Herbal Remedies & Supplements for TTC

[Anna Banana]

I told an aquantance that my husband and I were trying to get pg. She told me that she conceived while taking Black Cohosh and Dong Quai. Doctors had told her she would never have a baby but two months later she was pregnant. She also told four other friends about this combo and all of them conceived as well.

I looked it up to see why these herbs would help with fertility. I've heard about Black Cohosh helping women with menopause. Turns out these herbs give the body the building blocks it needs to make female hormones. So it's just assisting your body to do what it does normally.

Well, It worked for me too after taking the herbs for just one month. I just took a home pregnancy test last night and there were definately TWO lines . I've had one m/c so I'm really nervous. I breasts have been sore on and off and I haven't had any m/s. I should be 5 weeks. Any words of encouragement are welcome.

Firstly Congratulations on seeing those two magic lines. Well done. I am sending you heaps of and wishing you a happy and healthy 9 months.

I hadn't heard of this combo but I will definitely be going to get myself some of that. Can you just get this from the chemist or perhaps a health food place? I have just started taking Vitex and I also take a multi vitamin and folate. Does anyone know if it is ok to take all of these things together? Perhaps I should check with the chemist when I am in there.
