Hello all....

I'm a feature writer for a national newspaper and am looking for three ladies to be featured in a spread I'm writing.

We'd like to do a positive, uplifting piece about, for instance, a woman who gave up a stressful city job in order to try to conceive, someone who abandoned a strict diet/exercise regime to put on weight and get pregnant and someone who gave up their party lifestyle to have a baby.

I'm also open to other suggestions about what was 'given up' if you, or someone you know has a slightly different story?

The ladies must have given up their 'thing' to GET pregnant - not BECAUSE they were pregnant.


It would be a very straight forward, nice re-telling of the person's story and involve about 30 mins interview time. You/they would also get professional shots done of mum and baby/kids.


Can pay expenses though there isn't likely to be any - in most cases I can do a phone interview and the photographer will be sent to the home address.


Really hope there are some doting mums with fun, uplifting tales to tell of their quest to get pregnant, who will get in touch!

Pm me if so.

Many thanks.

The best thing i found that helped me get pregnant was giving up alcohol 3 months prior to falling pregnant, i was on a 12 week training programme for the 'Run to the beat' half marathon!! I found out i was pregnant a week before the half marathon, but still ran it, me and my embryo (i was 6 weeks pregnant) completed the half marathon in 2 hours 12 mins...such an amazing buzz!! :))

My old boss tried for many years to get pregnant, through natural and assisted means. Finally, she packed in her job to give it her full attention, and lo and behold at around 45, she managed it. I will try and see if I can get in touch with her.
i saw an acupuncturist to get pregnant who had a bit of a holistic view of trying to conceive so the list was endless - booze (of course), pork, any processed food, any spicy food, citrus fruit, seafood, the list was endless! and i was only allowed to eat organic. worked though.....

    • I have swum in it several times since it's reopened.  No problems.  The sand stuff is a bit off-putting but like all pools they'll have to test and log the water quality regularly so I think it's unlikely to be a health issue.  The water is clearer than a pool I use regularly near my work - also with no issues.
    • After looking through a few decorator recommendations on here and getting some quotes, I hired Kam to paint ceiling, walls, door, skirting etc in my hallway and bathroom. Really happy with the results and the experience with Kam. He is professional, friendly and polite: someone I was happy and comfortable to have in my home (I live on my own and this is not always the case) and implicitly trusted to be there when I was away. The price was reasonable, his communication was great and he was patient with some changes I wanted to make and willing to try painting tiled floors with a particular paint I found and worked meticulously to get a great finish with it and all aspects of the job.  He also went above and beyond to tidy up some painting jobs I'd done myself. Thoroughly recommend.   Kam: 07949507412 email: [email protected]
