Have you ever had that moment where you thought to yourself “if I could just figure out the right foods and the right exercise and the right way to meditate and the correct supplements and avoid all of the wrong things, I would get pregnant”?
Have you ever commented on a person’s BFP celebration post in the Fertility Support Facebook Group and asked “what did you do during your cycle”? with the hopes that if YOU do those things, you’ll get pregnant too?
