Ok, I just read another article on how its good to eat

carrots while your trying to conceive. Has anyone heard of this? Why carrots? And if you did should they be cooked or raw?

Re: Ok, I just read another article on how its good to eat

Eat them raw. This from an old FM I got from Michelle (Redstar) before I was doing my IUI, I hope you find it helpful and I hope she doesn't mind :)

If you get to the store, this what I suggest you buy. Do you live near a store that sells 'carrot juice" ??? If you do, buy some...buy some organic baby carrots and eat as many as you can....use dip it helps :) Get some V8 splash, it has carrot juice. If you can get some V8 as well.

Drink water all day if you can, put a lime or a lemon in it. If you have the time, squeeze some fresh lemons, add water , and a small amount of sugar and make fresh lemonade.

Alfalfa capsules work well but you can only buy them at a gnc and so does evening primrose oil.

If you notice you are getting a lot of cm but it's thick, get some robitussen...that can thin it out.

Basically you want to de-acidify your body. Try very hard to skip caffeine and alcohol in the next few days too.

Baby dust to you!

Re: Ok, I just read another article on how its good to eat

Yes Michelle has been singing the praises of carrots for a while now....I keep my fridge stocked!!

Re: Ok, I just read another article on how its good to eat

I eat them too...Very good things I hear about their effects.

But also , just dont OVERDO it. I have hypoglycemia...and Carrots have a TON of sugar in them. If I eat a whole bag of the baby raw ones, my blood sugar drops a lot. You should always eat carrots with a lot of water along side to wash the sugars away and be careful if your diabetic or hypoglycemic.


I usually ebcause of this, limit myself to eating them only the week before Ovulation and Im fine.
