Promotional Feature

Life is a unique and individual journey marked by personal milestones. But it can seem like all your friends are getting pregnant, and you’re the only one who isn’t. It’s a feeling that’s more common than you think, and it can leave you feeling upset and frustrated.

Read on to learn how Zita West supplements can help support your journey to pregnancy and to find out how you could win some fabulous pampering skincare goodies from Zita West.

Fertility in the UK

On average, women in the UK are having fewer children than before. In 2021, the UK’s total fertility rate fell to 1.53 births per woman, compared with 1.56 in 2020. That’s much lower than the 2.65 births per woman, which was seen back in 1964.

NHS fertility statistics indicate that as many as 1 in 7 couples in the UK could have problems conceiving. However, that also means that around 84% of couples who have regular unprotected sex will conceive naturally within 12 months.

If you’ve been trying for a year (or six months if you’re over 35) without success, it’s worth seeking professional advice. Medical interventions, including assisted conception techniques, have helped many couples achieve their dream of parenthood.

But, of course, if you’re finding it hard to conceive a much-wanted baby, these statistics don’t really offer much comfort. You’re probably more concerned about what could be causing your own fertility issues and how you can increase your chances of having a baby.

Addressing the “Why Me?” Question

Fertility is a complex issue and can be influenced by numerous factors. Some of the potential causes of fertility problems could include:

  • Ovulation problems caused by PCOS or thyroid problems
  • Medical conditions like endometriosis or fibroids
  • Medicines like chemotherapy drugs or long-term NSAID use
  • Issues with Dad-to-be’s testicles, semen or sperm

If you’re trying to conceive, you can potentially increase your chances by following a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, eating a balanced diet, and avoiding alcohol and smoking. Making time for relaxation and avoiding stress may also be beneficial.

A Helping Hand with Zita West Supplements

In times of uncertainty, expert guidance can be a beacon of hope. Zita West, the expert midwife, has helped countless women in their journey towards motherhood. Her philosophy incorporates a holistic approach to fertility, acknowledging the importance of mental and emotional wellness alongside physical health.

In her book ‘Zita West’s Guide to Fertility and Assisted Conception’ Zita points out that “Preparing for pregnancy is not just about ticking boxes in terms of physical health. The mind plays an equally important role. Thinking positively and reducing stress can make a significant difference.”

Zita West Supplements have been specially designed to support women’s fertility health. They contain vital vitamins, minerals, and nutrients crucial for preparing the body for conception and maintaining a healthy pregnancy. 

“Supplements can’t replace a good diet, but they can help fill nutritional gaps and provide extra support when you’re trying to conceive,” says Zita West.

Emotional Support is Key

Your journey to motherhood might not align with that of your friends, but it’s essential to remember that everyone’s path is different.

Of course, you might feel a touch of envy or even grief when another friend announces that she is expecting, and that’s absolutely natural. But after your initial reaction, try to focus on your own journey and the aspects you can control.

Talk to a trusted friend, someone you feel you can be totally open and honest with. And be sure to keep the lines of communication with your partner open, as he is going through this process with you. Trying to conceive can be stressful for both partners, so it’s vital to keep talking honestly about your experiences and emotions.

Whether you’re just starting to plan for a baby or have been trying for a while, taking care of your body and mind is vital. Surround yourself with a support network, eat well, exercise regularly, get enough sleep and try to reduce stress where possible.

Pregnancy Pampering from Zita West 

And all of those good habits will serve you well once you’ve got that longed-for positive pregnancy test. Taking good care of your mind and body is essential at this time of life, and Zita West pregnancy skincare products are specially formulated to prepare and pamper your body during all three trimesters of your pregnancy and in the postnatal period.
