When To Start Preparing Your Body For A Baby

Both sperm and eggs take approx. 90 days to mature, meaning the sperm and eggs with you today began to be produces in the body 90 days prior.

When thinking about conceiving both men and women should consider preparing their bodies for a minimum for 90 days (3 months) prior to beginning to actively try to conceive, remember fertility is 50/50. Depending on your health and wellness levels at the time of discussion about conception, 3 months is a minimum, if you are in relatively good health generally 4-6 months is suitable and if you have not been one to look after your health in the past anywhere from 12-24 months may be more suitable.

Remember, emotions, chemicals, toxins, trauma, stress, heavy metals (and more) can all be passed onto your child both in and out of the womb, it is our responsibility to give our children the best opportunity at having a healthy and happy life.
