Period Recovery and Fertility Podcast

Ep 66: Natural pregnancy at age 38 and finding your “why” for real recovery


Listen Later

Laura lives outside of Philadelphia PA with her husband and almost 2-year-old son. Her journey began over 20 years ago in high school when she wanted to lose a little bit of weight, which quickly turned into an eating and exercise disorder. For years she struggled with finding peace with food and her body, while trying to focus on recovery. It wasn't until she reached her mid 30's and wanted to start a family that she realized quasi-recovery wasn't going to help her reach her goals, which ultimately led her to the food freedom fertility society.


In this episode:

  • The downsides of “DIY”ing your fertility journey

  • Why you need to gain at least 25 lbs. during pregnancy

  • How to know what “quasi recovery” looks like

  • Using period recovery as an opportunity to finally find food freedom

  • Getting in touch with what you body really wants and needs for be healthy

  • The first step to moving out of quasi recovery

  • Calling out the lie: “it’s not the right time” to work on recovery
