Around, I guess, February of 2011 I came across a blog, naturallyknockedup.com when "googling" the effect of milk on fertility. I don't remember why I chose to google milk specifically. (Don't you love how "google" is a verb now? :) ) I do know that I looked into many ideas on fertility and infertility. Milk must've been the search d'jour for that day. When I read Danielle's personal story, I was so fascinated and interested. It wasn't exactly my story too, but, I found it fascinating that she was able to, basically, "heal" her body with proper nutrition. I love science and am borderline untrusting of western medicine as the absolute always answer. I value western medicine, respect it and use it, but....I think that some, maybe many, ailments may be lessened or "cured" by proper nutrition and other alternatives such as appropriate and counseled vitamin / mineral supplementation. So, I began following her blog and reading her thoughts and posts on various health and fertility topics. At this time, I also began paying attention to what I ate and why. Oh, I didn't stop eating unhealthy foods....fried chicken, brownies etc. I just began noticing how much, how often, and how I felt afterwards. While I eventually found another fertility related health blog, I continue, once in a while, to read up on what Danielle is writing about.
While looking up Danielle's facebook page, I took notice of the different names that popped up in the search field, much the way google does now....everything with "N" pops up, then "natural", and so forth, as I typed in "naturally knocked up", one of the many names that came up was "Natural Fertility Breakthrough". Thinking that was a catchy name and along the lines exactly of what I was looking for, I checked out the public page. I have been a fan ever since that discovery.
.....more to come.....
