Many women believe that they can wait as long as they want to start a family. This belief is perpetuated by famous stars in the public eye who are becoming pregnant later in life. What the public does not realize about many of these women - who are pregnant in their 40s - is that they are often using a donor egg.
It is a common belief for many women that if they delay childbearing or want to have children later in life it will generally be easy. Yes of course some individuals can get pregnant later in life (and it often happens randomly), but for the majority of women this is not the reality. Some women also believe that going to a fertility center will guarantee that they have a child. Yes, of course fertility specialists can help you to have a baby, but they cannot change how healthy your eggs are or the amount that you have left in your ovaries.
As women age the quantity and quality of their eggs goes down. This aging process begins around the age of 35. You are born with a certain number of eggs and when you begin to ovulate your body chooses the best eggs towards the beginning of your life. These eggs are chromosomally normal and healthy. As you become older, your egg quality and quantity declines. There are also less chromosomally normal eggs in your older years which can cause spontaneous abortions or miscarriages once you do get pregnant.
There are excellent new tests that allow you to check your ovarian reserve — meaning how many eggs you have left. One of these tests is an AMH value or anti-mullerian hormone. This is a hormone that is released from the tiny eggs a woman still has in her body. As the level goes down, your egg reserve also goes down. You can do it any day of the month, and it’s very good for giving you an idea of your reserve. The AMH is the most accurate and convenient test currently available to check a woman’s egg supply or ovarian reserve.

If you are feeling stressed out about becoming pregnant and do not know what to do next - this episode should help. I work as a Nurse Practitioner at a fertility center and meet couples that have been attempting to have a baby for years. It is a very stressful situation that can potentially create a great amount of unworthiness and vulnerability within women as they see... "everyone else around them becoming pregnant but them". What they do not know is that many of these pregnant women have reached out to fertility specialists for help. Fertility is a taboo and sensitive subject that no one wants to speak about honestly because it is too painful. I want to fix this.

An interview with Dr. Bruce Lipton, author of The Biology of Belief. Dr. Lipton an internationally recognized leader in bridging science and spirit. In my new book FERTILE I apply groundbreaking scientific research on epigenetics to pregnancy. Women who are ready to create a better planet will learn how to become conscious genetic engineers of their children. Mothers have the ability to contribute to society by creating enlightened children free from negative beliefs and fear.
In this interview, Dr. Bruce Lipton teaches us how to apply behavioral epigenetics to the period of conception and pregnancy. He has committed his life to teaching the world that consciousness programs DNA. We are not victims of our genetics, but creators of reality.

Determining your level of inner alchemy, and what elements are affecting your life, can be done by paying attention to what is happening in your environment and how you react to it. The elements that are primarily running your energy at the time of conception will significantly program your baby because they have an environmental impact on your level of consciousness. Even if you are not having a baby, it is important to understand the transformational power of the elements and how they can change your life. I work with the elements when I am working with clients in personal sessions, you can go HERE to learn more about this. If you can identify what is happening on the inside, and how it correlates to what is occurring in your outside world, you will have an easier time identifying the level of alchemical transformation you are going through.
