TAKING LONGER THAN YOU’D HOPED TO GET PREGNANT?

Don’t forget that it takes two to make a baby… and male factors contribute to up to half of all cases of infertility…

One interesting area of study is the microbiome of semen…

Scientists have recognised that different semen microbiome compositions predict different fertility outcomes…

Whilst it’s still early days, and there isn’t enough data to draw strong conclusions, the research is exciting and will hopefully lead to some microbiome-targeted therapies for fertility.

In the meantime, why not check out our online course, which is currently FREE! Comment ‘I’M IN!’ below and I’ll send you the code to gain free access.

Did your support network drop away as soon as the birth was over?

Some women feel incredibly well-supported throughout their pregnancy…People really gather around… massage your back…fuss over you… For some, this support sort of ‘drops away’ as soon as the baby is born…

You might feel like you’re left with a ton of decisions to make every day, but you’re exhausted, overwhelmed and this is all SO NEW! All eyes have turned to that cute little bundle (understandably!) but YOU still need support!

Allow us to step in here…

MothersBabies has created a bundle specifically for you in those early months and years AFTER you’ve given birth…

It’s called our ‘Post-Birth Bundle’ and it’s a part of our online course ‘Healthy Gut, Healthier Baby’, which is designed to empower you on your fertility. This course will help you discover the importance of gut health on your fertility, your pregnancy, birth, and your baby’s health throughout life....and best of all, it's currently FREE!

Comment "BABY" below and I'll send you the code to gain free access...

We are incredibly passionate about sharing this information with you and really value your feedback, so please do not hesitate to get in touch with any questions or comments you may have…

Your various microbiomes are affected by many external factors, some of which you may be able to optimise with a few small lifestyle changes or choices along the way.

What you choose to eat has a huge impact on the composition of your microbiome, and can have a significant effect on reproductive success.

Dietary intervention is something that you can implement prior to trying to have a baby to give yourselves the best chance for a healthy pregnancy…Keep your eyes out for a post later this week on Lactobacillus-boosting foods…

If you are keen to learn more about your microbiome and its impact on fertility/pregnancy, take advantage of our current offer…You can have our entire online course, normally valued at $376, for $0!!!!

There is so so so much conflicting, and just downright wrong, ‘gut health information’ online…

Should you be cutting out gluten for your gut health? (Not necessary…unless you’re allergic/intolerant)

Have you been told that dairy is inflammatory, or *bad* for your gut? (Hint: It’s not…unless you’re intolerant)…

Are FODMAPs causing your gut health to take a dive? (You might need some professional help, but it doesn’t mean FODMAPs are *bad*!)

Do we need to avoid refined sugar like the plague? (In small amounts, a bit of sugar occasionally is not going to destroy your gut health!

🧡 If you’re confused about what you should be eating and doing to look after your gut health, we’ve got you….

Note the term ‘minimise’… You do not have to completely exclude these 3 things from your diet when planning a pregnancy (although excluding alcohol in the lead-up to, and DEFINITELY during, pregnancy is highly recommended)…

Which one of these things do you find hardest to reduce?

Have you tried to gradually replace them with other, healthier-but-similar items?? For example, soda water with a squeeze of lime rather than soft drink? Or a falafel wrap from your middle Eastern restaurant rather than drive-thru? There are also a heap of all-free options on the shelves these days!

7 Steps to a Healthier Gut

Science is pretty clear when it comes to your gut health…

Carnivore diet is NOT it…

Über-restrictive keto diet is not it either…

Paleo is closer…but still not quite it…

To feed all those gut bugs, you need fibre…and fibre comes from plants!! So focus first on your whole plant foods… and then ‘decorate’ your meals with seafood, lean poultry, meat and dairy (especially the fermented variety!) if you like!

⭐️ Don’t forget our online course is FREE for September only. Comment below with your favourite plant-food emoji and I’ll send you a special code to gain free access to our entire course, normally valued at $376.

Please share if you can relate!

🤰🏼The journey to parenthood is rarely as simple as the fairytales might have you believe…

Even the righthand 'reality' column could be considered a ‘smooth ride’ compared to what a lot of people go through to have their babies!

Infertility, partner stress, miscarriage, IVF…there are so many potential ‘bumps’ along the road…

MothersBabies would like to help make your journey as smooth as possible by raising awareness of the power you DO have over your fertility and pregnancy choices.

The science shows that your diet and lifestyle has a significant impact on your microbiome health, and that this, in turn, influences your fertility, pregnancy, and future baby's health.

FIND OUT MORE in our online course, which is currently ✨FREE✨!!
